8GB’s Day 1 – Stu’s arrival

Welcome everyone to day 1 of Blip 2008 week!
Things seem pretty hectic as of today so I hope to keep up with the news as much as possible…

Alright then.
Waking up at 11, I remain in confidence that I had to pick up Stu from the airport at 4PM.

At 12:50, I open up, just in case, the itinerary he sent me, and I read “13 hours”.

aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Chomping the rest of the delicious turkey and noodles soup i was having, I jump on the L train to meet the motherfucker.

Call after call to his phone would get to his voice message box.
I finally get to JFK Airport after 40 minutes, and start looking for him, to no avail.

in the text doc he also sent his flight number. Upon further investigation, turns out he actually WAS going to arrive at 4PM. GREAT.

0.25 dollars eaten by a Pacman arcade, 3 dollars eaten by an internet terminal, a blueberry muffin and a load of minutes later, Stu finally arives to the United States of America.

After the obligatory smoke (for him), we jump on the train to reach Bubblyfish’s house, where we would meet with Tonylight and Bubblyfish to plan a dinner. Minutes later we’re informed that Mr. Johan Kotlinski was already in town too, and that he is actually my heighbour! (staying just around the corner). We wait for him, who comes with the 2 Player Production guys, Paul and Paul, who didn’t join for dinner. After all is set and the vodka has been drank, we head off to Chinatown for a massive food fest.

Ridin' the J(a)MZ train

A JMZ train ride later, we get off at Canal Street and meet with Jonas (xXm of Microdisko Stockhom) and Notendo to round up the mega feast. Ate like kings and queens, my favourite dishes being the wasabi beef something something and the chicken low mien.

We then fail at going somewhere for a drink, so notendo splits with Jonas to check about the whereabouts of Nordloef, while we return to our Brooklyn houses to relax and face the next day full of energy. Role Model comes over to the house for a couple of drinks of a belgian beer, we talk a lot about life, music, nerdities and Nixon (his dog) and then we decide it’s time to call it a day.

Want some?
