Jeez.

Tooheys Old is actually my top choice. New's not too bad, and they sponsored the team. Shits all over their extra dry rubbish anyway.
my friends son got a slab of tooheys something (blue label) for christmas, so he shared it with me (his family arent beer drinkers, i am)... i'd rather drink vb!! coopers pale all the way!!!

and i forgot... i won tickets to see oasis in 1998 on the radio. i had a choice of three sets of concert tickets, and oasis were the only ones worth seeing. i was hoping metallica would be in that give-away, but they werent :(

I've won CDs, concert tickets, T-shirts, etc from the local radio stations, but like Speed Damage, they are nothing compared to my "Metallica Prize". I was not so lucky to win a M&G but I did win tickets to see the band play in a teeny tiny club at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival where I happen to sneak into the sound check and after it was over... met Kirk.

Now, I know it is a big surprise that if I were to only meet one of the Metallica boyz that it would be my heart's dream to meet Kirk, so yeah that was a pretty awesome experience. Later that night at the show of course I was at the rail. I still have the picture I took of him with my cell phone set as my phone's wallpaper (3 phones later).

:P
