I was in Austin recently with my band to play a few shows. We're called The Myth of Sisyphus, and we're a prog/nu-metal/hip hop/soul band. Our first ep is due out later this year, so we're pretty stoked. But yeah, so we were in Austin to play a few gigs and check out the scene and wouldn't you know it, on the second night in town one of the wheels on my razor scooter fell off and I didn't even bring an extra with me. Needless to say I was pretty bummed out because anyone who knows me knows that the Dre Man needs to get his scoot on pretty much every day or else I just don't feel right. Seriously, how many of you out there feel me on that?
Anyhow, some kids at Emo's told me about the No Comply Scoot Shop and I was effin' stoked because we don't even have a Scoot Shop in San Francisco, or as I like to call it, Sucka Free City, lol!
Anyways, so I went over to No Comply with Rich, our tour manager, and I was a little shocked at first because there weren't that many Razors in the shop, but what the hey? I'm open-minded and besides, I really needed a new wheel, right? So the guy behind the counter, I think his name was Elias, asks if he can help me and I'm all like, "Yeah, Broseph! I need a new wheel for the scoot, holmes!" And he just kind of looks at me all weird for a second, as if he's never seen a guy in a kilt before, right? And then he says to me, "Yeeeaaahhh, we're all sold out of Razor Scooter wheels right now. Sorry."
Can you believe that? A Scoot shop sold out of scoot wheels? And after me an Rich took the tour bus all the way down there? WTF? Right?
The he offered to sell me a skateboard. Like, what? A skateboard? I'm sure! What am I, like 12 years old? No way!
So to make a long story short, me an Rich had to go to the Walmart to get a new scoot. But it was cool because we made it back in time for me to get a quick shred in before the show, which by the way, we totally killed it that night! Next time I go to Austin, though, I'm bringing an extra scooter. And an extra kilt.
