dedicated to any and all of you who are unable to make it to the gathering this year.  if you have anything in particular you wanna say about it, this is a good place.  

doesnt matter if its venting, waxing philosophical, or what have you.  tell your tale.  if you feel like it.  

 

ulterior motive:  obviously, this also serves to let me know who not to expect to see.  ive noted quite a few [already too many], im just idly wondering who all isnt gonna attend.  

  

  awfully paranoid, arent you?

I have no one to watch my daughter (that I would trust) so I will not be in attendance. I hope you all get the meetup going, some year soon I would love to do something like that. I’ve seen people organizing things like that back during the days of the old GOTJ Board and the JN Forum but I’m not sure how often they actually came together. I’m rooting for you.

I have a 1 year old daughter now, and another on the way. We have an extremely small family and like Guest said, very very few that we would trust to watch her. My wife even said I could go solo or with chums, but I first if all want to save as much of my work earnings as possible for our eventual departure out west. The GOTJ would def set us back a hefty hefty cinch sack of a chunk of dough…. also, I wouldn’t want to be away from my daughter and wife that long. Will I ever return? Only crime I mean time will tell… 

 

Plus the GOTJ isn’t a good place for babies. It reminds me of a funny occurrence at 2003 or 2004, we were chilling in the field, awaiting the next performers or whatever. I don’t remember but the evening had the feel of the last night ur so, everybody just relaxing and pre-contemplating their experiences. Knuckleheads shootin hoops nearby. Some honky talkin shit to anyone who enjoyed Vanilla Ice’s set (“like you guys are like cheering for the guy who was like in TMNT 2 The Secret of the like Ooze!!”) . My brother appeared from god knows where to chill by this fence with us, orange haired and in a white FUCK OFF! tee. We let our eyes wander from the clouds… to the juggalos… to one of Tech N9ne’s road team bitches, topless and rolling her endorphins out (my wife snapped a great photo, still got it)… she gave us a Strange Music sampler… then we saw it…

 

A very learned, proper Asian couple. Middle aged almost, looking like the epitome of a happy, healthy doctor~lawyer couple. They were just kneeling there over their baby, smiling as they changed it’s diaper right there on the field. Completely comfortable and oblivious to any of the insane GOTJ happenings. It was so strangely beautiful and poignant. 

“That babies’ asshole looks like a canyon” said my wife.

 

Rarely have I been so taken aback. My brother and I were rolling over the faygo-stained h

Grass like winos, shrieking laughter. Good times.

 

I wanna go now. Enjoy muhfuckaz!!

Its just not in my cards as much as it pains me.  My money will be better spent finishing college, and my girl has a lot of bills coming up that would prevent her from going.  She like OMDs lady said it was all buenos (shes peruvian) to go with some homies, but we roll as 2 peas in a motherfucking pod.  Id be glum every time I saw something cool, cuz we’ve done 3 years of GOTJs together, and I don’t really wanna do it without her as cheesy as it sounds.

Wasn’t let into the states. Tried twice in the past two weeks and no dice. My friend that tried to go with me wasn’t let in either. I know I said I’d sneak across but i am a little busy right now and that would be risky if I end up getting arrested for anything there. Fuck it, I’ll have a better plan next year and won’t be as busy anyways. Have fun, whoever goes!

I flew to Boston a few months ago and it was no problem. Driving across the border for some reason doesn’t work for me.

I am stationed in Germany with the Army. This will be my third in a row missed after a 5 year attendance streak. Can’t wait to be back in the states so I can start another streak.

I didn’t want to go at first. since the gathering started ive been telling myself every year “im gonna go next year” until I realized I will probably never make it, due to shit always coming up. now im married with kids, and no time or budget to make it.  but seeing how hype everyone is, I can say im a little jealous. yes I know I shouldn’t let kids hold me back, but I haven’t gone anywhere without my kids since they were born, and would hate to start now.  have fun everyone! don’t be dumb

 

 

Edit:  but I would go if somehow I was able to perform. lol

I'll fuck you till you love me, Faggot!
