    Getting kicked out from Metallica/Korn New Year's Eve gig in San Jose Sharks Arena for sneaking under the stage with a balcony ticket. They checked my ticket once, told me to get back upstairs, so I came back down in another sector. Another team of security guys was wandering around there, the man took my ticket and had me follow him until we got outside. He said byebye, shut the main door and I couldn't even tell him what I thought of him, as there were a few uniformed guys with SJPD patches on their arms in front of the building, visibly pissed off they had to work on this day of the year.
    So, it was 2330 hrs on Dec 31st, I was standing outside, hearing music from the inside, feeling prety dumb.. Then there was this funny drunken guy in a suit with a blonde girl saying they're bribing someone at the backdoor to get in.. another punk looking guy joined our group and we went to a door on the back and someone actually let us in to a staircase. We split up, me and the punk guy went on a corridor and got spotted by security who moved towards us. We run away through the staircase,..
    So there I was, 5 minutes to the New Year, standing outside the arena, hearing Metallica from the inside. It started raining. I went downtown, got into a bar and realized that it was full of pretty females, who turned out to be much nicer company than 30000 Beavis&Butthead types from metallica's gig.

    I never said a good word about Metallica since, though.
    Except maybe, "Hero of the Day", it is a good song I admit..
