I “took yesterday off” to get a bunch of work done before flying out to The Netherlands this evening in order to get to Tilburg tomorrow afternoon for the start of Roadburn. As I haven’t traveled in probably five years without bringing some Dio-inclusive album with me, I thought I’d post up “Falling Off the Edge of the World” to mark the occasion. It’s an appropriate enough song for getting on an airplane, I think.

Obviously, lots to come from Roadburn. Over the next few days, I’ll have pictures, video and writeups from the fest, as well as whatever else I can think of about traveling, so please, stay tuned. I’ve basically broken my ass the last few days to get my ducks aligned, so I’m definitely looking forward to getting away for a couple days to get a reminder of why I love all this stuff so much in the first place: the music.

My luggage (aptly named Big Blue, because it is both quite huge and quite blue) is mostly packed, and I’ve got my passport, so all that remains is to get to Newark Airport after class — which I’m about to go to — and catch the flight. It’s raining in Jersey, so pending any delays or shit like that, I should be good to go. Here’s hoping.

If you’ll be at Roadburn, I hope to see you there. If not, and you see this, I hope you enjoy the posts. In any case, here’s to adventure.
