Operation Blockbuster

Saturday’s plan for David was in place. That was going to be a big night for me. I was supposed to meet up with Bubsy and talk about joining the Terror crew. I was considering this way more at this point. Rusty had been MIA for a couple days. After he came to school dressed up like a total CLAS jagoff, I think he realized that everyone thought he was a Nazi. I was concerned about him. That girl Bridget seemed to totally be messing with his head.

So I made that phony call around 4:30. Luckily, his dad answered and I did my spiel. David and I discussed it like it was real in case someone overheard anything. The story was that they have inventory and another worker called off so they were asking David to work until 12:30. Around 5:30, I was waiting in the Blockbuster parking lot for David to arrive. He snuck around back and hopped in my car. I immediately took off for Medusas.

“Holy shit, I can’t believe I’m doing this!” David said.

“Feels good to be bad, doesn’t it?” I said grinning.

“Kind of.” He said as he took off his work vest and put on a black turtleneck sweater.

“I hope that band’s going to be good.” I said.

“I’m just happy I’m going to Medusas.” David said.

With my driving, we got down to Medusas pretty quick. I parked my car about a block away. We grabbed a quick bite from Muskies and then we headed inside the club. Life Sentence was playing in the rock room so I was stoked. David wasn’t into punk as much but was willing to check it out. The club was packed. There were also a lot of skinheads around. I know after the show, I was supposed to talk to Bubsy.
