YOU AND I ARE ARE MORTAL, BUT ROCK & ROLL WILL NEVER DIE.
Last night was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. Granted, Reel Big Fish's antics were similar to that of the DVD, but alas, I was enamoured. Beautiful, Beautiful!
Well, let me start by saying that being the only female in the group, I was perhaps the most practical in suggesting we leave at 4:30. Oh, but no. My darling David decided working on his chain mail for an extra 15 minutes would be more productive. And then we went to pick up Tyler, we made a stop at Longs Drugs, another one at McDonalds, and then we picked up Chris, and hit the rush hour traffic. We arrived an hour after the concert started and then spent an extra 15 minutes finding parking. Because of our ridiculous rendevous, we ended up missing Suburban Legends (who, thankfully, played for Jenoah) and part of Lucky Boys Confusion.
At least LBC played the songs I wanted. I heard "Sunday Morning" and "Hey Driver"...but they disappointed me by having their lead singer be the only participant in the accapela portion of the song. Afterwards we met up with Ryan & Kevin, and Catch 22 played. They have great charisma (& they ended up playing 9mm & a three piece suit), & then came RxBandits, who by the way were so stoned I wasn't surprised that they didn't do much crowd talking. After their set, a pick randomly flew at Dave's chest and I ended up keeping it. So, anyone want an RxBandits pick? ;)
And, well, there's no point in saying anything about Reel Big Fish, because you all know how freakin' awesome they are. I used the quality digital camera last night so enjoy -
me in Dave's car, tyler in the background.
dave proving what a cam whore i am. COOL.
my new necklace i made yesterday.
if you knew tyler, you'd know "horn dog" stands for the fact that he plays trombone in aught 7, and that is his screen name. he's really not a pervert, i promise.
IT'S THE COLONEL! from Kfc! He's hiding in San Francisco! his front side would have proven so, but I couldn't have captured him any sooner.
Reel Big Fish. You could see in the former that Aaron Barret has a mohawk, and if you look closely in this particular snapshot, they're playing "drunk again". this picture was taken after dave and i bought merchandise.
Tyler reading & i caught Chris at a bad time, but I felt I should have put this up here. for the sake of humiliation.
me and dave and his cool new lbc beanie.
Ah, yes. I also have a video :X of Aaron Barret's awesome solo during "Rock & Roll is Bitchin'". So, if you're interested, go ahead and click here to see it, or right click on the link and "Save As...". (It's a rather large file so I suggest saving it to your hard drive). You'll need Apple Quicktime to view the file.
edit - the godforsaken file won't upload completely to the directory, so if you're that desperate just IM me, i'll direct connect it to ya!
