knowing me and my journal, posts have been very infrequent. so i think i will relate most of my adventures during the past week or so. last thursday was the mewithoutyou/armor for sleep/this day forward/unsound show. i picked up ian and matt and we were off to the first unitarian church. we got there extra early and while we were waiting around in line, matt pointed out aaron, the lead singer of mewithoutyou. after a while he came back and we took the opportunity to call him over and talk to him. he and matt talked about some wild journey involving some truckers and a raft or something. anyway, after a bunch of people cut us in line we jumped in but still got in the front. direct center under/next to the main microphone.
first band was unsound, from nj. haha. they had a really crazy guitarist. think d sutt plus six more inches of hair and ubiquity. the singer had a ton of nutty pedals and voice things to make him sound fancier. all in all they were very good and gave us free cds.
next was mewithoutyou. they were superlative. aaron featured some wild spins and crazy moves. also they played bullet to binary and gentlemen, which made very happy. haha. the show also featured aaron and his brother's parents. not much else to say except they were very good and gave me a cool deal on a shirt (5 doos).
then armor for sleep came on. ian and matt got stuck in the back for that one because they were buying merchandise. they didn't think armor for sleep was that good but i thought that they were very good. they didn't go very wild or anything. but i still liked them. haha
last was this day forward. they were crazy. as soon as they started the lead singer jumped off the stage and created a pit. as well he spilled some chips around and ian and i heard a nice comment about how chips taste better when stepped on then when they have salsa. haha. other then that they played a good set and then whence they were done we were off. oh yeah, i also found a mewithoutyou button on the ground, very good. heh. alright well that's it for this one, i'll be back soon.
