(10-21-01) Nuther rocker held on VE

This past weekend was host to another night of fun and booze for the wild Van Everans. One person was quoted as saying they saw drunken Beav drop a cigarette onto the beer-wet nasty white house floor and pick it back up without hesitance - that Beav sure is a trooper. Apparenlty Mark Phillips was in the french maid suit again. No one has caught him on camera yet. If you do send it to cdixon@nmu.edu so I can upload it.

(10-15-01)Troy Dempsey passes out next to hotel hot tub, steals doughnuts from hotel pantry.

hWe all miss his crazy antics. Several months ago Troy Dempsey left Marquette to live in the twin cities(no not Iron Mountain/Kinsgsord you boner!). We got to witness his craziness once again though in Minneapolis after we attended the "Family Values" show in St Paul. We were at the hotel drinking heavily when Troy decided to go sit in the hot tub at 2 in the morn. Later when I (dirt-dawg) was standing around with Brian(Nolte) from the Minnesota crew we realized Troy had been gone for awhile. We went to check on him and there he was, passed out next to the shit! It was straight up hilarious. You can check out the picks on our asshole of the month page . After we took several pics next to him I woke him up. He told me he wanted to go back into the pool. I told him no so he pushed me and made a go for it, looking as if he was going to cannonball into the pool. I grabbed him fast enough though. After leaving there he made his way tothe hotel pantry, stealing a shit load of doughnuts. It was mad funny yo!

 

Bush and Dirt-Dawg make bitches out of everyone at "Beer Pong!" (9-14-01)

While pre-partying at Farley, Lucas, and Chuckles' former pad on VE, Chris Dixon and Brent Bushcuski ran a 5 game winning streak at the B.P. table. "It wasn't always easy" said Dirty, Alan "English Eyes" Larson was droppin' some shots, but in the end we proved victorious!" No word yet on next Beer Pong tournaments.

Bush nearly kills Himself in an honorable yet drunken attempt at patriotism(9-11-01)

It was the day of the accident that caused the death of thousands of innocent Americans. Feeling patriotic, druken Brent Bushcuski attempted to hang a flag off of his porch, only to fall off the porch and land on his face. Later on, the doctor at the hospital said he was lucky he didn't break his neck. Brent's intentions were totally honorable, but there's a lesson to be learned here - don't attempt things which may entail a risk of serious injury while wasted.

Wild Van Everans Destroy Living Room! (9-1-01 (I think?))

In classic Van Evera fashion, the White House living room experienced a face lift on Saturday September 1st. Several visitors were in Marquette including Rob "Manson" Hamilton and John Kries from Minnesota. After finishing many servesas, Boo-Boo, Phillips, Manson, Bennett, and of course Bush decided it would be funny to break nearly everything not nailed to the floor. "I heard about it happening, but I couldn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes" exclaimed John Kries visiting that weekend from Minnesota. Followed by the ruckus was a party at Sugarloaf. Bush showed up with a bag of garbage claiming a BYOG or "Bring Your Own Garbage" party. Followed by that Bush and Phillips treated the party goers to a few dance numbers which both probably do not remember. The cops later busted the party. Another one for the books!

 

 

Farley Returns! (8-23-01)

He's back and he's bad. VE online has just confirmed that Farley (Greggory Kras) is once again back in Marquette to ravage the streets of Van Evera, Wilkinson, and all the local taverns(he's now 21). We welcome Farley and his sarcasm back to Marquette!

Ratt to play Upfront and Company. (8-13-01)

Yes that's right folks on Wed Sept 5 Ratt is coming to the Upfront and Company downtown Marquette. It's on a Wednesday and school will have started already but you can count on seeing the VE crew that night down at the UF&C. No info on ticket sales yet. We'll keep ya posted!

Troy Leaves for Minneapolis (8-12-01)

On Sunday Aug 12, Troy Dempsey left for the twin cities as a transfer for Trade Home shoes. We'll miss the crazy drunk and we wish him the best!

 

Dan Michaud gets OUIL in Marquette. (8-11-01)

Those facist fucks were at it again, this time arresting Dan Michaud. Dan was up visiting for the weekend. A good time was had down at the Upfront and Company as the Van-Everans took Dan out for some drinks. Dan and Bush were pulled over in Bush's driveway after Dan was apparently speeding down Wright St. They hauled him tojail and now the poor dude will have to take an ass raping in fines. Better here than Iron Mountain I guess!

 

Jim Allen(CRIVVY!) turns 21 (7-16-01)

"Hello everyone. Today I am the BIG 21 and I am very hung over. Lucas, Grizz, and Koobiak did a pretty good job on me last night. Our night started at the Wooden Nickel and ended at Remies. Grizz estimated me doing around 18 - 20 shots and about 6 beers. Not bad for 2 hours of work. I did a little throwing up last night and my walking abilities were a little shaky but I got threw it. Well, I am going to try to enjoy my day, Kristin and I are going to Red Lobster tonight and I might have to have a margaritta or two. See ya later!" - Happy Birthday Criv, welcome to manhood.

 

Vans Warped Tour (by Chris Dixon 7-14-01)

While the madness was going down at Van Evera Me, Rob, and Lincoln Edwards were getting our asses kicked by the 95 degree weather and all the great bands that were on hand. There were some vert skaters and some death defying freestyle moto-cross. We first caught Rancid followed by Less Than Jake. After meeting up with our buddy from Minnesota(Goose), we caught our hip-hop hero Kool Keith who got the crowd up with songs like "Blue Flowers", "Papa Large", and some old material in his days with the Ultramagnetic MC's. Then we saw AFI - GREAT FUCKING SHOW! Those guys were so good I had to stop and check myself to see if I messed my drawers. Rob got to meet Davey Havok, the lead singer of AFI after the show. Then we caught BLINK 182 who were funny as hell and played a great show. They played a lot of new material and had an arena rock type stage with lights and pyro-technics. The after partying was fun but most of it must remain classified!

Van Evera St. Madness (7-14-01)

This past weekend the White House was host to a small but crazy gathering. Some of the shannanigans involved Mark Phillips dancing around in Troy Dempsey's Robin suit. Apparently the suit tore exposing some of Mark's goods. Several non locals left after the destruction started, that's right many things were broken after a few beers were consumed. One person reported walking into a room and seeing Boo Boo and girlfriend Rachel throwing bottles at the wall and laughing. Troy also got a standing-O after returning downstairs from "talking" with a certain girl. Many more bash's to come!

Poison/Warrant/Quiet Riot at Milwaukee Summerfest (by C. Dixon 7-1-01)

Milwakee Summerfest rocks! This year I was there to see the "Glam Slam Metal Jam" show at the Marcus Ampitheater. It felt like 1988 again! The first band was Enuff Z'nuff and they kind of sucked. Quiet Riot however was awesome getting the then 10,000 attendants off their feet and gettin' nutz to some of their classics such as "Bang Your Head" and "Cum on Feel the NOize". Then Warrant played and rocked the audience with hits like "Heaven", "Down Boys", and "Cherry Pie." There was probably 15,000 on hand by the time Poison came out and kicked the crowd's ass with songs like "Cry Tough", "Fallen Angel" and "Talk Dirty to Me" for an encore. It was one of the best concerts I've ever seen, long live the 80's!

Brandon Michaud and Jamie Anderson tie the knot! (6-16-01)

It was sunny and 75 degrees, the perfect day for a wedding! On June 16 Brandon Michaud and Jamie Anderson were joined in marriage at Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Iron Mountain MI. The reception took place a the Premiere Center and it was a rockin' good time. One of the highlights was best man Dan Michaud's speech. Dan's speech was full of goofy puns and sexual innuendos about his brother and new bride which had the place in sitches. A party at the super 8 motel followed but was broken up by 3 different police departments at the same time. The city, sheriff, and state patrol were on hand to disperse the after party. It goes to show you how much time those overpaid security gaurds have on their hands! "The Dave" (Dave Hendrickson) made his presence known to the police when he said to a state trooper "hey dude, get your foot off my cooler!" Overall, the day was a success.

Hangin with Rock Stars..(5-23-01)

Yours truly got to hang with a few rock stars last week in Green Bay. Fellow DJ Numan and I went down to interview Monster Magnet for our Tuesday night show on Radio X, "Thrash and Trash Tuesday". We got their and got backstage passes. Like Beavis says, "when you have a pass you can do whatever you want!" We hung out during Cold's sound check. Then we interviewed Brian, the lead guitarist from Professional Murder Music. He was totally cool and we did the interview on their tour bus. We also met the rest of the band. Then we hung out and caught Buckcherry's set which was kick ass! During the set Monster Mag's tour manager came and got us and we went on their tour bus and interviewed lead singer Dave Wydorf. Dave was cool and answered all of our Q's. Then before watching MM, I managed to meet 2 guys from my fav band Buckcherry -guitarist Keith Nelson and bassist JB. It was the dope-shit yo! Pics will be in the gallery soon!

"The Dave" Arrested! (5-19-01)

"Don't drive drunk kids!" Unfortunately after leaving Remie's tavern Saturday the 19th of May, Dave "Charlie" Hendrickson was picked up for drunk driving while bringing a buddy home. The story goes as follows - while driving the friend home he noticed the cops were following. They tried to discretely lose them without making it look like they were trying to get away. But to no avail - the cops followed even closer. They ended up pulling Dave over and giving him several sobriety tests which he failed(those damn ABC's!). After being stuffed in the car he managed to smooth talk his way into the cops pulling over so he could have a smoke(let's see you magicians try that trick!). Upon arrival at the police station Dave informed the cop about to search him that he was allergic to latex which is what the officer's gloves were made of. He was fucking with him and informed him about a half hour after the cop had searched for different gloves. The cop didn't think it was funny. I picked him up in the morning. You must have below a .07 to leave jail - he blew .068. Charges are still pending. We'll keep you informed!
