at night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city cryin'
Hey, so remember last time when I was like bordering on flashbacks/anxiety attacks during the concert, and I figured everyone was too busy focusing on the show to notice, but it turns out THE E STREET BAND noticed, because Patti was all maternal and concerned, and then a few weeks later baked_goldfish was like "Yeah, uh, Steve was basically coming over there in full-on Silvio Dante mode to check on you a bunch."
So, okay, last night we got into the pit again, and somehow accidentally ended up front and center because baked_goldfish nearly keeled over from heat exhaustion and they let her sit inside and let us in first of all when they let pit people in. We were right in front of Steven Van Zandt and only a little further away from Bruce. And I got a little teary at a couple of songs but was mostly okay, except then they played MOTHERFUCKING BACKSTREETS and Y HALO THAR SONG ABOUT BETRAYAL AND BEING DAMAGED and yeah, I spent most of it leaning my head on my arms because I was hyperventilating/sobbing so hard that I couldn't see straight, and at one point glimpsed Steve gesturing at me but looking off at someone down beside the stage, where there were crew and security and whathaveyou, and then the next thing I knew a security guard was handing me a little pack of tissues.
And then they did Rosie and Steve was going :D? :D? :D? at me the whole time, except for when he was all [STEVEFACE] at me during "I know your mama she don't like me 'cuz I play in a rock and roll band", and during BTR he was all ":D fuck yeah, rock and roll, emo kid!" at me whenever they hit "tramps like us", and trying to get me to dance more when they did "Dancing in the Dark" and "Twist and Shout" at the end, and finally baked_goldfish was like "so I think this means you and Steve are best friends now" and I was like IDK MY BFF SILVIO DANTE?
Yeah, possibly with other drama going on with friends and family, that kind of might be the only thing keeping me going right now. ♥
