WaRpEd ToUr!!
Ok, warped tour totally rocked! I was blown away. It was so amazing, that I can't even think of words to describe it. First off, being there, with Blondie and Akira was the best.
Getting there was a story in itself. First me and Akira got in a little argument b/c me and Blondie wanted to go in a sepparate car than her and her friend. But w/e. Then the directions I got from mapquest sucked ass! Never use mapquest, they freakin make up freeways and exits! Then when we were half way there...."you have the tickets right?" me-"Oh shit!!" We totally had to go all the way back. We were late, but didn't end up waiting in a line. We just totally cut all the way to the front. It was weird, but nice. We went and got the line up.
We saw a little of Mae, then we saw My chemical romance @ 12:30 and then The Early November @ 1:00. I've never seen anything so cool. One band ends, and the next begins on the stage right next to the other one! Call me easy to please, but wow, just wow. Alkaline Trio @ 2:00, I'm a new fan of theirs, so I only knew like 3 songs, but they played my favorite one, and I hung out with Andrew's friends while watching them. Then at 2:30 was Thursday, but we didn't watch it cuz we wanted to be right in front for TBS. But MAN!
That was harsh. It was packed like a sardein can, and it hurt. I've been to shows where its cramed, but not to the point where everyone is falling over and you can practically lift your feet and just remain in the same place because people are so close, they are holding you up! TBS started playing and I had to get out, I mean I love them to death, but I was getting pummled and I couldn't even breathe. After they played, we dashed to a line. And we were the right in front... to meet TBS!! AHHH! I freaking was right there, in front of them, and we got their autographs!! OMG it like made my life. While we were in the line we missed being close to Coheed and Cambria, but we could still see them and hear them.
I wanted to see Rise Against, but they were playing at 5:15 so we had no time. 5:30 was yellowcard, and don't get me wrong, they are my boys, and I love them, but I was a little dissapointed. They only played stuff from their new CD, and most of my lest favorite songs too.. oh well, they're still #1 in my heart!
Right after YC them was Story of the Year. They rocked! they played all my favorite songs and I was just over taken by amazment when they played 'anthem of our dying day'. I could have cried... lol... Then after that, me and Blondie decided to leave, we were tired, and I was sun burnt and feelin it.
Dont worry, I most definately got some merch. More than I should have actually. I got a TBS shirt, a SOTY tank, an Alkaline Trio CD, a VANS shirt, hat and a free CD. In all, with food and drinks, I spent like $60 there. Well worth it though. All and all, it was one of the best times of my life, I hope great bands are playing next year. Too bad I didn't get to share it with Andrew.
I miss him. He called today, and I cried on the phone, and I think he was crying too! Awww, one more week!!
