The only dark dance club in town was closed by order of the city government. 8o


That's awful! :mauer: Why did they do this?

Oh, and my mother came over to my place early last week with a t-shirt for me. Not just any t-shirt, but one of a skeleton smoking weed and the words, "360 joints and not one to smoke." 8o I should mention that her English isn't perfect and she's a (tobacco) smoker. I didn't know at first if I should laugh and correct her or just nod my head and smile. Nodding and smiling got her back home faster. I will never wear that but I think she saw skeleton and thought of me. I don't even wear t-shirts! :(

Well, you see, many places here where opened without paying attention to the laws. That means: no emergency exit or they lock it, they put flammable decoration and so and so. That accident in Cromagnon happened because a guy fired one of those big...sparkler is the word? and he was sitting on someone´s shoulders... and the roof was decorates with black pieces of cloth... Emergency exits, all of them, were locked with chains couse the security guys didn´t want anyone in without paying the ticket... so people were trapped and died.

So

As usual, government noticed that there were lots of places habilitated breaking the law, and people were furious. they locked down most of the places.

So

This dance club was opened, but now habilitation has to be renewed every year to have more control. They still didn´t renew it.

Still, the guys who control it didn´t realize that the exits there are a fake. They go nowhere. It is a basement with only one way out... funny thing...


Tomorrow. Big dinner. My mother in law will meet my pink hair for the first time. She is one of those old teachers that would never in life let you take the exam if your tie is not perfectly tied.

I´m scared.

OK, I do admit I'm rather relieved that it's closed. 200 people dying because of poor fire safety are already 200 too much. I personally wouldn't like to stay in a basement with only one exit.
Our club here had difficulties with safety laws, too. The city's government was (and still is) quite patient. It's the only "alternative" club in town and the city is interested in keeping it open because it's like a kind of social assistence for some people who would cause trouble otherwise. So the owners were allowed to change things without having to close their place.

I hope someone at your place will open a dark club soon that has got emergency exits and such stuff! :-]

Thanks! It kind of worked, hahaha!

She opens the door, looks at me, I say "hi!" she sais "hello...". She wants to say something, she doesn´t know what to say she is trying to move her mouth. Fernando gets in starts talking. She still wants to say something and can´t stop looking at my hair. Fernando wouldn´t stop talking. He wouldn´t let her say something :D

That was phase one.

Phase two:
She avoids looking at me. She denys it I guess.

Phase three:
We leave. We get into the elevator. Silence. She looks at me with this sarcastic smile. Nobody talks. She says "and what would be the name for that color?"... I smile, I say "Magenta"... She says "and why is the name of that color Magenta?"... I say "I don´t know" and I think "it´s only 8 floors down, say something and we are out, come on!" so I remembered my last photo class and my teacher saying something about magenta pigment that cannot be obtained by mixing other colors and has to be especially produced... And I started improvising on that subject and suddenly we where out 8)

@LePand: Wow, yes, I agree that there should be rehabilitation for these types of clubs. Safety cannot be too important. What matters is that they shut them down, fix them, and then re-open them in a timely manner.

@kleineRatte: No apologies! I fought laughter her entire stay here once she presented that to me.

"oh! I live in land of concerts!" hahaha joke. I´m just jealous . :P

I spent my weekend taking pictures. Andrea, a friend called Maura and I. We had a funny photo shooting day. We were annoying ladies at the hairdressers with pink clothes and animal print stuff and lots of make up... REALLY funny... You will see the production at myspce, I will let you know when it´s on the air, is worth to see it (I think :) )

And on sunday, I had to clean up the mess! haha!

Still, I need a good hang over 8)

Oh, things could have come worse, huh? :D

That reminds me of an old-aged couple whose way I crossed last week. The husband was very old and sitting in a wheel chair. He looked at me with narrowed eyes, than barked at the direction of his wife, “that one’s got red hair!”
He was speaking with a heavy dialect. I answered slightly embarrassed: “this is magenta!” and then both stared at me with big, round eyes.
I’m afraid that they did mistake “magenta” for a synonym of “impertinent”. :P

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I was in the subway the other day, and sitting just in front of me there´s this old aged couple (yeah, it starts just like yours, but different end :D) And the man keeps lookig at me so happily and he makes like this :perfekt: and says "I love, I love it! Do you think I can make that in my hair too??" and he touches his bold head and his wife laughs... This guy was like a lovely little child and we have a great conversation about my hair. Then he gets up couse he has to leave and says "I will never forget you young lady" and he leaves...
That guy changed my day!

Eeeek! I didn't mean to boast! :sch:

I took many photos during the weekend as well, as you've all seen in the members photo thread by now? I'll check yours out soon, too, so inform us! While I don't really go to my hairdresser often (I'd have Godiva length hair if I could but once in a while I'll get my hair cut like Aeon Flux and then let it grow), I could imagine you being in one with lots of pink and animal prints! Oh, and I'm not one to judge on makeup, as I love to put color on my eyes.

Sundays are odd days for me usually. Either extremely lazy or extremely busy. Well, I don't get hung over so my recovery usually just involves sleep. I do not envy my religious friends who "sin" all Saturday night then go to church Sunday morning to "confess" it all. :cool:

That would be great but I'm not 100% sure yet. It really depends on how Combichrist goes the night before but the chances are good. Even better if you would be able to give me a ride home after! ;)

I know you're at work right now, so how about you e-mail me and we can toss the idea back and forth? I'll also go see how much they want for admission to this thing. Ugh, why Sunday!?!? :D
