Me - the incredibly drunk Obits fan who was trying to crowdsurf for some reason
You - the incredibly patient crowd of music fans whom I attempted to surf upon
I want to formally apologize to everyone for being such a damn fool Friday night. I was way waaaaay more drunk than I should have been and I can't help but think I probably ended up hurting some people. I don't know how I became that drunk given that I arrived only semi-drunk and didn't show up with enough money to buy even ONE drink, but it somehow ended up that I always had at least one in my hand. Never again.
I also want to formally thank you all for being so cordial and understanding! I definitely have the vast majority of you to thank for my not sustaining more injuries than I no doubt would have sustained. So, thank you all! You're beautiful people.
On to personal individual apologies and thank-you's(sorry I don't remember any names!):
To anybody I may have hurt - I'm terribly sorry. I know how bony I am. There's not a lot of soft edges on me. Let me buy you a beer!
To the Sled Island staff member who towed me out by the neck - Thank you for being gentle! Of the numerous bruises I had when I woke up, not a single one of them were on my neck. Thanks also for turning a blind eye after seeing me inside after you had kicked me out. I just wanted my cigarette case signed by Rick Froberg and thanks to your kindheartedness I was able to make that happen. Basically, thanks for putting up with me. I think I may have followed you longer than you wanted me to but I was for some reason convinced you asked me to.
To the drummer for Rural Alberta Advantage - Sorry for wanting you to high five me after, like, EVERY song you played. I was just stoked on your drumming. Thanks also for giving your drumstick back to me the night prior. Now I have a memento!
To the elderly gentleman whose helmet I knocked over because I tried sitting down where I should not have - I'm very sorry for the disrespect. Thank you, however, for taking it in stride! I will never forget your response: "Hey! Pick that up!....You never know when I might need it again!"
To the people in the lobby who came out to give their support after I had been forcibly removed - You are the real heroes! Haha. No, really, thanks for the kind words, but I truly did deserve to be kicked out.
To the girl who lent me her pen and didn't run off when I gave her my phone for collateral - Thanks for not running off! And thanks for the pen! Ultimately I didn't need it because by the time I got back onto the stage he'd already found one, but the intentions were still there! You're wonderful.
To the numerous people who picked me up after my several failed SUPER COOL CROWD SURF \m/ attempts - You definitely deserved all the hugs! Also, sorry for all the hugs.
To the people up at the front with me while I was being belligerent and rowdy - Did you have fun? I hope you may have. I did consciously try my best not to hurt anyone, and I don't REMEMBER anyone hitting me, so I must not have been that bad, but still, I'm sorry for maybe making your night not as fun as it would have been. Thanks to those of you who played along with me though! You guys were a blast.
To the gentleman who expressed legitimate concern to my friend about my having a concussion - Very seriously thank you. Going to sleep with a concussion is very bad news and the fact that you took the time to recognize someone I knew and relay this information to them means that some people care for the general well being of others even if they don't know them. You are a great person. Unfortunately I didn't hear about this until Sunday morning so I obviously went to sleep anyway. I'm okay, though! No concussions for me.
To the guys on 13th avenue who told me where I was when I thought I was lost - I was literally less than a block away from my apartment. I was far from lost. Thanks for helping though.
To the gentleman outside Broken City on Saturday who gloated about intentionally not catching me which resulted in my falling directly on my head - I hope you got a high five out of that man! Glad you could have fun, even if it was at my expense. That's a pretty fast bike you got, too!
To the gentleman inside Broken City on Saturday who gave me a cuddle - I do remember you! Well, your face anyway. I think you may have been the guy who I helped on stage, but I don't exactly remember. Just know that I do remember you!
To those I may have forgotten - I'm sorry! It was a very big night for me.
To my friends who may read this - I know, guys. I had to. I felt like an idiot. Still do.
Final thanks/apology to everyone who affected me or whom I affect that night. Will see you next year, less drunk. I promise!
