AHHH! One of the best concerts I've ever seen (I mightsay that after every show...but they all kind of rock). I took a bunch of pictures, so I think I'll just post my favorites...I'll try and keep it below 20, but no promises.
Opening band=the mint. They weren't bad...but everybody pretty much just wanted Lifehouse.
Setlist...or part of it. But no THE JOKE! *cries*
So, he pretty much has the greatest smile ever.
..and eyes.
...and again with the fucking smile. gah.
Gibson Dove=my second dream guitar. bastard.
The bassist and drummer were like, right in front of their color light things (which are bad-freakin'-ass, btw), so It was nearly impossible to get good shots of them.
HA! I kept it at 20 (the first 2 don't count!). If you want to see the rest, you can go
here. I'll edit the videos in once I get them on YouTube.
As far as an actual review goes...
Got there 2 hours early, and there was already 15 or so people. Waited, got in, waited some more, opening band, waited some more, LIFEHOUSE. They pretty much rocked my socks off.
Technical difficulties, so Jason did a few solo songs until they could fix the one amp. Ha, he started playing All You Wanted by Michelle Branch as a joke, and like, everybody sang along. Took a few requests from the crowd, and played Everything. I freaking love that song. I got it on video, even though we definitely weren't supposed to be doing video. ah well.
The bassist played a Def Leppard song and Jason said he'd give somebody 10 bucks if they could tell him who sings it. He literally handed the person money (only $5 though).
Yeah. There's not much else to say, other than that it was amazing. The first thing Becca said to me after it ended was "we are definitely seeing them again". Hell-freakin'-yes.
Ahhh, this gonna get fucked up because I have to move into HTML mode. Uuuugh. Don't worry, I'll fix it.

When Ben's amp blew out, Jason started taking requests from the crowd. After he totally heard it from like 323463 people, he finally played Everything. I had to get it on video because A) They don't usually play it at shows and B) It's Becca's favorite song.

And part 2. They're all short because we weren't supposed to be taking video, so I didn't want to get caught. The bouncer was basically right in front of us (you can probably see him in a few of the pictures).

that one's not mine, but it's the entire technical dificulties thing, and includes the 20 second Michelle Branch cover...and Avril Lavigne. Ha.
