Thought it was a Pearl Jam reference. But it wasn't. Now I has a sad.
I've looked at this post numerous times now and always thought it read, "the water, even-flowing."

Listen up everybody if you wanna take a chance.
Just get on the floor and do the new kids' dance!

Observe and Report
Speaking as a former security guard, it's true that they are literally there to "observe and report." Most security agencies do not allow their employees to carry weapons of any kind and are instructed to stay out of physical altercations. They're there to observe any crime or suspicious activity and report it to the real police.

That said, I always had a retractable baton hidden on my person just in case (I was working in some high-crime areas of Phoenix).

I'd like to think that if I'd been there, the observing would have ended once the kicking started. But that's a personal decision that a one makes. So people can judge the individual security officers however they please, but it's wrong to blame Metro.

RE: Belgianfest
Thanks for commenting, Bean. Glad to have your point-of-view. Sorry you had such a difficult time getting around. I hope they take that into consideration next year. And yeah, the restroom situation has a huge oversight.

I do judge a beer by its cover
I thought Broken Rake was gross. I'll try Fling, but like you, I'm skeptical.

And *all* of their labels are really fucking ugly. That alone deters me from buying their beers half the time.

Just one little degree away...
I realized today that I know his brother. Weird.

The McHales are a cool tribe.

Great post.
Saw Arctic Monkeys at the Showbox after Favourite Worst Nightmare was released. Yes, they were pretty much stand-there-and-play, but it was still an awesome, very tight show.

Unfortunately, I found out about this show too late, so I'm resigned to simply enjoying the hell out of the new album.

Thanks for the post,
Jack
