Last night was SUPER. Kelly and I drove 2.5 hours to see Waking Ashland and the other bands playing with them in Grand Rapids. There were really good bands. And Jonathon remembered us from last Saturday when we saw Waking Ashland in Chicago. And we told this guy in the first band that played that we drove two and a half hours to see him/his band. Here's how that went.
Me: So we drove two and a half hours just to see you guys and we were wondering if we could get a picture with you.
Him: Of course!
(after the pictures were taken)
Him: You have to send me a copy of those pictures.
Me: Definitely.
Him: Did you really drive that long? Where are you guys from?
Kelly: Commerce Twp.
Him: How did you guys hear of us?
Kelly: (scared look on face-looks toward me)
Me: (trying to avoid the question by continuing to write my e-mail down)
Him: You guys are lying!
Me: Only sort of! We really did drive two and a half hours.
Kelly: but we came to see everyone.
Me: and then you guys were here and it was like SUPRISE!
But he was really excited at first that we had driven that far. And he was still excited that we had liked his band.
I totally weaseled my way into the front while Waking Ashland was playing. They sounded really good. Better than last week. Anyways, last night was awesome and you wish you had the hookup with Waking Ashland the way Kelly and I do.
