Vice: Jaimie, what was your Fourth of July like this year?
Jaimie: It was OK…
The fireworks were the usual shit.
We started the night grilling brats and drinking Milwaukee’s Best Light. It turned into a full-blown party.
Later we snuck into a country club where the pool cover doubled as a trampoline.
Oh, and Matt got a pre-birthday toilet papering.
You came out to New York this summer from Kansas City for our photo show that you were in. Was the flight OK?It was over before I knew it..
I passed the time pretending to be scared…
…by this dumb bitch.
Is Kansas City a good party town?It can be… this night was a roller-skating party. They had a DJ, a VJ, the limbo, and a spread with pickles, candy bars, popcorn, hot dogs, nachos… everything! And it was all free!
You know a party is good when people crowd-surf a piece of the ceiling for ten minutes!
This was the first night that my friends Amy and Chloe met, and they got in a huge fight. Chloe had just moved here from Philadelphia.Later they rubbed mud all over themselves and made out. It was weird.
Now Chloe is one of your best friends, right?Correct. She is one of my favorites. We went to four parties in one night recently, dressing differently for each one.
At one of the bars the walls had been flag-taped a million times and by the end of the night people were all woven in them and dancing rave-style.
Chloe made out with some random boy.
On the way home we whip-creamed Lisa’s Oldsmobile and toilet-papered her trees.
Are there any specific things that only happen in KC?We have our own Mardi Gras night here.
People go more or less apeshit.
You have a really tight group of buds out there, huh?
I guess so. I mean, there was a backrub chain at a show a few months ago.
Everyone was having fun until someone smashed bananas and detergent all over the floor. Not cool.
We found out it was our friend Ally and a couple of the guys discussed what to do in retaliation.
They ended up smacking her in the face with a buttered chunk of table since we were out of cream pies. It fucked her up pretty bad.
Just kidding! She was fine.
