Lifestyles of the rich and famous...

are nothing like mine lol. yaayy concert! woohoo!! ugh i am still so tired. and i'm sore! it doesn't even make sense that my arms are sore, if anything my neck should be *moves neck* oh wait it is. i had a jolly good time last nite. it RAAWWKED! what compels people (or just me) to sing at the top of their lungs during a song i dont exactly know... it's kinda funny now that i think about it. but it was fun! it was from 6:30 to 11:15ish. first band was Stretch Armstrong from SC (they were kinda old). the dude pretty much yelled every word and it didn't seem like anyone knew the song cuz they were just sitting and starin. singer would be like "where are all my people at on this side??" audience:"woo." but he acted like he was big with a lot of confidence so that gets some props. then at 7:15 ish MXPX comes out. good show, i liked their big MXPX banner behind them and that whole switch-guitars-by-hurling-them-in-the-air-across-the-stage thing was cool. i can't say i enjoyed every song cuz i only barely knew Punk Rock Show. then hmm after that there was a pretty big gap in time, they were playing cds in the meantime. (the used stacy! the used!) i didn't recognize any other bands they were playing but they pretty much played the whole used cd in the time before gc came on and then before nfg.
i really like Good Charlotte's show, i could just feel all the power coming off the stage. first they played Lifestyles, the spotlights acted as helicopter lights in the right spots. there were so many lighting effects when they were on. they also played wandering (? i luv that song lol), hold on, moving on, bloody valentine, young and hopeless, and...dont remember names of the rest. on stage they had those 5 symbols up there, do they mean anything special? the only time joel messed up was on the very last song, anthem, he started the next verse early but no one complained.
New Found Glory... it's like they were on speed or something lol. they were just all over the place, during one song chad runs around the edge of the floor, accidently slaps a security guard from trying to shake hands with people in the seats, hugs security guard, and moves on. during the whole show i was hoping no one would be cussing just so my parents wouldn't comment about it (during the songs it didnt matter cuz they couldn't understand them) and my sister said nfg never does in their songs... one of the first things chad says is "you guys always go f---ing insane for us!" aah! after awhile it was f this f that and my 'rents didn't have any comments about it so alrite that's the sh-- rite there! j/k. they said that too. nfg had fans in the background on stage. this one dude in blue was jumping so much he eventually almost actually went on the mainstage. he had to keep trying to stop himself lol. near the end they were "covering" lose urself by eminem and....omgosh what is it called...that club one by 50cent (performed by 65 cent aka Jordan). that was soo funny. "oh dude i dont know that one either". then they were like "we're all A.D.D.!" crowd "wooo!!" "how many of you are ADD!" "Yeaahh!" that was interesting. by the time they go to My Friends Over You (last song) jordan was just lost, he forgot his words but replaced them with "oh sh-t!" hahaha.
i was surprised by how diverse the crowd was, in front of us was another set of parents with 2 12yr olds (i call all the young looking people 12 year olds) behind us was that loudmouth girl (one of those girls u can hear every word she speaks) and her friends, punks, preps, all kinds of people. oh one of the funniest parts was watching those crowd "surfers"... more like crowd sinkers lol. u'd see people going nicely along, one dude was being hurled up like 5 inches, and then all of the sudden all u'd see is their ankles. lol. but yeah i wrote a lot and whoever reads *all* of this deserves the end of it so... zzzzzzzzzz
