Its like he is stuck between a rock and a hard place, mabye he just felt he had to give some responce if lotsa people have been emailing him. Reading between the lines, I'd say shits gonna go down.

I love Twilight Princess and the enjoy the similarities with Ocarina of Time, I admit it hasnt been as era defining as previous games but its still a great game. I still havnt completed it yet, only halfway through, but thats mainly cause as I've got older video games just dont have the same addictive qualities as they had when I was younger. Mabye its cause I'm self employed, I always have this nagging feeling in the back of my mind that I should be doing something more important than playing games, and I cant really lose myself in them the way I used to.

I understand the expense side of things, if its going to work out too expensive, thats life. I couldnt afford to go see AC/DC the other month and its probably the last time I'll ever have the opportunity. Thats just the way it goes unfortunately.

You have months to plan for it though, travel arrangements, babysitters and whatnot. I treat it like going for a night out on the town, theres always the possibility I might not get home till the next afternoon.  I'd never go to a concert relying on public transport cause the last trains and buses leave way too early. If I'm working the next day, I'll take the day as a holiday or a sickie.

I went to a Rammstein gig a few years back when I had work the next day, it was in a timber warehouse I briefly worked at. It was a brand new business and my first week. I went to the gig, got merry and managed to get invited to a party by these people I met. There was whisky galore and I never got home till 6am and I started work at 9. I was still pissed at 9 but went in anyway cause it was my first week and didnt want to make a bad impression. Before 12 I had crashed the forklift truck 3 times, the 3rd time was when I tried to drive out the warehouse with the forks raised and crashed into the metal rolling shutters above the doors, piercing the brand new rolling shutter doors with boths forks and hanging the forklift up on them. I got sent home soon after.
But I learned a lesson that day, and it was to not be foolish next time I go to a concert, by planning ahead and making sure I have the next day booked off work!
