The Fighting Cocks
After a wonderfully upbuilding day at Bethel we headed to Amy's house to get ready for our night on the town. When we got to Amy's we ate our sandwhichs we picked up at the market. I had an chicken avocado sandwhich - doesn't it sound yummy? Well in actuality it was more like bread with a ton of MAYO with chicken and avocado bits. I like mayo but good night that sandwhich was HORRIBLE. Anyway Rob and Amy made plans for us to go to a cool indie pub called The Fighting Cocks and see a band called Halagoogoo. Rob loves Halagoogoo!
When we arrived at the pub I realized I forgot my I.D. I thought the girls were going to kill me, but the guy who was in charge of entry let me in. I mean I'm pass the age of 18 which is how old you have to be to get in the pub. We met so many friends. Soooo much fun! I played pool with Fabian and Justin and Jason (poor dude had a broken arm). It was really nice to chat and socialize with the friends. E and I learned a lot especially from Fabian right E? LOL He told us what gangs are called in England. They are called firms. Interesting huh.
About an hour and half later Halagoogoo got ready to perform. The band was actually hanging out with us before they performed. Nice group of guys. Anyway when they got on stage I must say their costumes were INTERESTING. Fish nets shirts with spandex leggings. I'm trying to get the images out of my head. It was pretty dark where they were playing but since the stage had such bright lights you got a really good visual of their outfits. The crowd got pretty enthusiastic when they started playing. I was pretty tired so I stayed in the back with E, Justin, Fabian and I think Robyn. Poor Amy was up front and someone accidently pushed her into some speakers. She is such a trooper because she just got back up and continue rocking on with the band. We had a really good time hanging out at the pub. When we walked home we were pretty pumped. Amy was pretty sore from falling over the speaker but she didn't complain much. The next morning she was still in pain so we all urged her to get checked out. She ended up with some broken ribs. It was only our second day and the best travel guide ever was injured AND she was moving the next day. Oh NO!!!
What will the two Americans do now? Stay tuned folks. LOL In the meantime enjoy some select pics from the pub. If you check out my online photo album you should be able to see more pics from that night. I need to arrange my photo album because they are kind of scattered. Anyway till my next update. Later!
