okay so im gunna do this day by day...
SATURDAY: i got picked up from beauty school at 1pm and we went to my house to pick up my stuff and then we left. before we went to the hotel we went to the great lakes crossing mall and while twana and bill(rachels mom and her fionce) went to go fix the tire cause there was a hole in it. so we went to hot topic and who do we see? like litterally 15 people from alpena. i saw my friend kaylie in there with a whole bucnh of other people. it was cool. i bought this straight edge t-shirt from this shirt store and it looks like it says coca-cola but it says straight edge and its red. then we went to the hotel. i called cass and she was still on her way home from west branch. we hung around the hotel and stuff and went by the pool and when cassandra came we went to the rams horn to eat dinner cause i was starving. we blasted a7x like all hardcore when we were driving around. we went back to her house for about half an hour i dont remember why. and then we got back to the hotel at like 11:50 and we went to bed
SUNDAY: we woke up got dressed and all that. went down and ate breakfast and twana and bill left to go do what they wer doing for the day. cassandra came at like 9 and we went to the silverdome on the way i was hit on by some boys who were next to us on the road haha. we waited in line to get in the gates for about 1/2 an hour then they let us in to another section where we had to wait another hour and a half to actually get in to where the stages were and all that. we met this really cool kid named phil. so they finally let us in and automattically rachel got separated. i was so pissed i didnt want to wait around for her and all that b.s. i was saying "that cunt where is she?" and stuff. she found us cause of my hair and then we headed over to see what bands were playing when at the AP tent and i found out pretty much every band i wanted to see was on the teal stage. before i went to that stage i worked my way to the front of the brain stage to see sugarcult. then i left to find cass and rachel. they had both already been trampled. i didnt know what to say. i wanted to go and do stuff but then i felt bad for leaving them. so rachel came with me to go check out taking back sunday who was going on in about 45 mins so we got separated then and i didnt see her untill about 8:30 a night. i slowly worked my way up to the front i was about 3 rows of people back for tbs. i could see them fine but i was so squished i was misserable and i couldnt breathe. i thought i was gunna pass out. after tbs i got farther up to like the 2nd row of people and then the bouncing souls played. i finally got up front on the barrier. i told my self nothing was gunna move me from where i was. after the bouncing souls played it was new found glory and they were so awesome. jordan jumped off the stage and was up on the barrier and was in my face well his crotch was and he looked down at me and put the mic in my face and i sung into it. i also grabbed his crotch and held onto his belt while he was infront of me. they were so good. i knew every word to all the songs they played. then anti-flag played and i like them so i was looking foreward to them and i met this really cool guy who i let in next to me and we talked for the whole intermission about just random stuff. he was like kinda holding my hand so we wouldnt get separated and he was pushing the crownd surfers off me. the crowdsurfers were so fucking bad that i had about 5 security gaurds asking me "are u okay, lets get u out of there, heres some water" but i said no im staying right here. my head is all brused up and really sore today from it. but anyways after antiflag the guy left and said good bye and all that. then tiger army played. i thought they were good but not my style but i nodded my head and respected it. then oh my god haha good charlotte played. i got pushed so hard up against the rail because there were so many people who wanted to see them. i was happy to see them since ive liked them for about 5 years. i sung to their songs. thier new stuff they played is A LOT HARDER than their stuff now. i threw my head around so much and was rocking out it was chaos. benji kept on looking at me and smiling and when i would look at him he would like look away sometimes maybe because he was shy or whatever. this securty gaurd that i was talking to before good charlotte came on handed me one of benji's guitar picks that he had dropped and i thought that was nice. joel jumped off the stage and was standing on the barrier as well right in front of me i had my arm on him and i was patting him and he as well stuck the mic in my face to sing. he was cool. but what i had been waiting all mother fucking day in the same spot for, almost passed out about 10 times, had what felt like a busted open skull for was A7X!!!!!!! this boy that had gotten next to me, me and him were talking and he was a huge a7x fan as well. we were both really excited. for them. they brought out all of the a7x props like the deathbat things and a skull and then i saw zacky and syn walk into the back truck thing on the side of the stage i was so happy that i got to see him. after about 20 mins of waiting and screaming "a7x!!" and all that they started to play this intro like from a recording. then THEY CAME ON STAGE they played chapter four firt i belive. i was banging and slaming my head around like i was having a fucking seizure. i was pointing at zacky either with my fist, my finger, or the rock on symbol most of the time, he looked at me and i screamed "ZACKY I LOVE YOU" and he got this huge happy grin on his face and he nodded his head to acknowledege that he heard me. i sang every fucking lyric to a7x except when i couldnt hear the music too much and i got confused to what they were playing. zacky looked at me a lot as well. i couldnt had been happier!! when syn and zacky did that guitar thing where they get together and play side by side that was so amazing. im pretty sure they played: chapter 4, second heartbeat, eternal rest and ended with unholy confessions. after they went off of the stage i couldnt decide wether i wanted to leave or not cause soty was on next but i wanted to see if i could find a7x to meet them since i didnt get to be at the signing they did cause i wasnt gunna leave where i was. i got out of the crowd and did my best to run around this fence cause i was so woosy from standing so long and shaking my head so much. i saw zacky and syn signing shit where i was heading and shoved my way through a bunch of little bitches. i loned syn a sharpie so he could sign some autographs for some other fans and then he signed my shirt through the fence. he is so much hotter in person. he was also really nice. then johnny christ signed my shirt too. i was saying "ZACKY" the whole time trying to get his attention and then he finally heard me and looked at me and said "hey you,*wave* ill be there in just a second" so he signed some more shit and then he had to talk to some security people and then he turned around and pointed at me and said really loud "I SAW THIS CHICK WAS ROCKING OUT TO US" meaning me of coarse and i was so flattered that he said that. i asked if he would sign my shirt through the fence and he said "sure of corse just put it right up to the fence" and he signed my shirt. i told him how i was up at that stage all day waiting for them and how i drove 5 hours so get there and i bought my tickets in february and i was only really looking foreward to them . and he looked at me with his jaw dropped and said "wow thats hardcore" and then smiled. i told him how much i loved his band and how much they rocked out on stage and all that then i said i should probabaly go cause i didnt want to bother him anymore and he said it was fine he enjyed meeting me and then he shoved his cute little hand as far as he could through a hole in the fence to shake my hand so i shook his hand and then he said "bye and ill look out for you when we are back in detroit" and then i said "okay, thank you, see ya later, bye!" then i went off to the a7x tent to see if they had gotten any of the belt buckles in like they said they were going to and they said no so i bought a shirt and sounding the seventh trumpet and that is an amazing cd by the way. then i bought some water and i heard flogging molly playing so i figured rachel was there cause she had wanted to see them the most. so i stood by my self far enough away to see the stage and i bobbed my head to flogging molly and then when they were done i looked all over for an orange t-shirt which is what rachel was wearing and i finally saw her after looking for about 20 mins. we sat down and talked for 10 mins then i got up and bought a pink 3 row studded belt for only $15 it was crazy cheap. then we walked around looking for cass and she saw us from the other side of a fence and yelled "rachel...sandi" and then we left. cass asked me if i saw fftl and i stoped and my jaw dopped and i said "awwww no i didnt i totally forgot about them but i wouldnt have left where from where i was anyways" i was pissed that i missed them i really wanted to see them too!! i was sooooooo sore when we left i was walking like an old lady and still am haha and we then she dropped us off at the hotel and we talked for a few then she left. i wish i could had talked to her more but i was separated from everyone the whole day pretty much. bill took us to mcdonalds after rachel took a shower and then we went back to the hotel and ate and i took a shower and went to bed. i woke up in the middle of the night and my legs felt like i had a serious charly horse and i wouldnt go away but i dont know what was going on my legs hurt so bad i almost cried.
