EEEEEE WENT AND SAW HELLOGOODBYE LIVE AT BRIXTON ACADEMY LAST NIGHT!
They were so, so good. The two supporting acts were rubbish: the first one was trying to be all American punk-pop but they actually played songs that all sounded exactly the same, and they sounded like every other American band around at the moment... And the second one were decent musicians but they were trying to be all hardcore and it got really boring. And the sound checks were SO LONG. They just went on for aaaaaaages...
But anyway, Hellogoodbye were awesome. I got Coke thrown in my hair, and by the end of the gig I couldn't breathe and was only standing because I was being held upright by all the people around me. Got kicked in the face by some guy crowdsurfing. Drank random glasses of mystery water that we found on the side. Screamed so hard I couldn't hear anything. I just love the... barbarity of it all. You're crushed against people in a way that in any other situation would be incredibly awkward, but it's not because you just throw yourself around and get shoved over. It's weird. I wonder why it's fun.
I may be just a tiny bit in love with the
lead singer. He is
awesomely nerdy.
Afterwards all of us went back to Amy's house and watched High School Musical 2 because Jo and Sian hadn't seen it yet, and straightened Maria's hair. Maria basically has the most incredibly curly ginger hair ever. It's amazing. And straightening it was... so disturbing. She was like a different person. Looked great, but completely different. It was scary.
Anyway, I've only had about an hour's sleep in the last thirty-one hours, so I'm currently running on sugar and many, many cups of tea.
