What day is it??
huh.. what??
Ohh yea..
Schram Show.. what number now 8?? 9? Who the hell cares anymore lol.
Ok, so my two months away from the boys were really starting to get to me. I heard about this show on Tuesday through bulitens and the mystery of it being a secret "fan only" show got to me. I saw Molly's buliten and wondered if she herself was going. So, I message her and lo and behold she was. The day before a Schram show, and I can go! Holy Bumcakes and rice!
Anyhoo, for the second time Lyra was gonna suprise the D-town crowd by making her apearance. I got my outfit that was planned for an Old Barn trip out, exited to finaly wear it. Grabbed the drawings I had worked on and put em in my purse. Then made the case to my mom. I said "Mom I'm going to Detroit, it's an important show, I have money" She coulnd't really argue.
About 6 the next day, pm mind you. I get a call from Molly saying she'll soon be on her way. Previously that day I bought a brand new phone and dyed my hair. So I was beautiful and equipt with a new phone. Met them got in the car and made our way to The Clem. Every time I hear WRIF I get giddy cause I know I am getting closer to the D. Listened to some good shit and watched some good shit on the way down.
Then there we were, Mt Clemens. The bright sign on the Emerald Theter Lit up so green it made my heart melt. As we walked up to the entrance I saw the new van. My god was it gorgeous. Got some pictures of that and went up to the entrance. Saw Harmony and Koz and yelled up to Harm
"Fine Harmony, ignore me!"
"LYRA!! What are you doing here??"
Got a huge hug from her, but nothing from Koz I was thinking to myself "you bum" but I knew he was busy.
Anyhoo got my ticket and found Randy inside as well as everyone else. Got my photo taken like a million times by Spleet and a good hug from him. Suprising people is the best thing in the world. Got alot of "You're the 'Schram Artist' Right?" Even met some new people, Like G-man of Zug. He was a sweetheart. Saw Dave and gave him big hugs. I must say his glasses rule. Saw Brian and gave him like 20 hugs in a row, poor guy. Another "I can't belive you're here!" from Bri and I went down to get the pics I did for them all. Got a major ego-stroking from everyone lol. As if I needed more eh? Then finaly Koz came up and apologized for not saying hello earlier, called me doll and gave me a big ol hug. I knew he was busy but it still kinda offended me earlier that night, but he made it cool.
But enough about what I did, it was time for the show!! Well the other band ran over so we had to wait a bit longer. I was already like "c-mon c-mon!!!" I'm not the most patient gal in the universe. Finaly the smoke started billowing and my heart started racing. They started out with Mike Steve, and Dave playing some into stuff whilst Brian remained in the back. Then he comes out, the cheers start and on comes Privacy. I can still hear the "Dah na na na na na na na, na na.." Of the beginging, and the final "Laaaa. They echo in your heart at all times. Soon after a quick "Hello, we are the Brian Schram Band" (as if they HAVE to tell us who they are anymore) They whipped into Waistline. One after another they knocked back the hits. Bri and Mike climed on the speakers, just as I ran outta film on the first roll. Hope to see what the others captures on that. I know it rocked something fearce.
Then Bri got on the speaker soley again for Everyday Normal. beautiful as usual, Then another soft one, Big Shot. So heartfelt it just makes any girl melt. Then in Schram style went right into Bad Things. And you know I screamed along with the Lyrics. I Am My Own Man came on and rocked like fuck. Then The Finale hit.
One night Stand baby, And we the took it. And although he didnt make us moan we screamed for it! Things went crazy Bri trying to break his fender by lobing it to the ground and only a few chips came off. And, allthough we heard about it comming it was still amazing to see Steves drummallets on Fire. Dear God It ROCKED. I swear that's the sickest drum-solo that will ever be heard @ the Emerald! As the show ended I was awestruck yet again.
Made some goodbyes as the after-party began. Most of us headed to Dooley's for the festivities. This time I was marked with X's so no drinks for me. But who needed that after I was drunk on my own adreneline. Talked to Shelby a bit then Harmony. Then talked to Randy alot. Mike walked up to the bar and said "hey" I didnt get to see him @ the Emerald so I thought it cool that he came up to me. Gave him a hug and asked about Texas and stuff. Then Last call came and 2am came soon as well. Gave some hugs to Jersey, Mike and others. The rest of us decided to go back to Casa La Schram.
What an array of memories I get from the Schram house. Saw Steve when I got there, got to give him a hug, but then he went upstairs. We all gathered on the couches as Brian preceded to watch fishing. M-kay I like to fish, but watching it... no.. The rest of us engaged in conversation on other things as we ocationaly hear the yell "It's a four-pounder!!" or, "Bring it back" "Get it!" "Oh MAN!" Belive me it was Hilarious!! After hanging around til 4 am or so Randy finaly got Brian to give in, and so we all went to Stingers ; an after hours gay-bar. Belive me I'd never in a million years imagine going to a gay bar with Brian Schram Band.. All of us got in the van exept Kathy so I gave her a hug goodbye.
It was a cute lil bar. Randy got us in for cheaper. Watched Bri and Harm play darts. Then helped Randy with a match game. Drank too many Vodka Cranberries. Then 5 am hit and it was time to go. Went back to the Schram house and even more fun stuff. Watched as Bri tried drilling a hole in the fridge with a drillmotor, damn he is dangerous!! Don't remember alot but it was all good. Played Euchre on Steve's drum, cause all the furnature is gone.. Drunk euchre is not my thing. Shuffling after cutting the deck putting down the wrong cards.. Yikes lol. Soon after that I think we all decided to crash out.
Morning.. Ugg.. I didnt sleep cause Dave had the damn blanket and he had a coat on!! PLus there were no pillows on the couch just bri's guitar. So I'm in my lil outfit just about frozen! lol. Got some pics of the sleeping rockstar Dave though. I went to sleep for about a few hours though and when I woke up I found myself cuddled up with Brian's guitar for warmth, so i had marks on my face from that lol. Too bad no one took a picture. How cute/stupid is that shit?
After rubbing my face to get rid of the marks, Eric woke up and then Dave. Soon life began to stir in the house. I gathered up my purse called my mom. I think she knew I was hungover, gotta love her. Then we got ready to go. I knocked on Bri's door and woke him up to say "bye" Is that mean? eh, he went right back to bed anyways after saying "Thanks so much for comming." Hugged Harmony, then Dave. Then we climbed into the car for the trek home. Stopped to eat and before long I was back home.
Dropped my purse, hugged my mom, went to bed.
Another Show down, Millions to go....
Good night and Drive Save,
