Fucking amazing day/night for music in my world. I love my world.
Woke up. Mom left :(. I cried. Felt like I was at endless overnight camp. Then went to internship at Mercy Records and remembered I couldn't be doing any of this had I been closer to home. Canon came in today. Cool dudes. But awkward. They're one of those nerdy bands who make Star Trek jokes but it was cool to meet them. Surprisingly THEY had a lot of questions for ME. Got the new My Chemical Romance CD. I've been getting pretty in to it. Not quite as epic as they promised, but epic all the same. Picked Mike up, my Boston buddy, went for dinner at House of Blues then picked up my FREE TICKETS and photopass to sold out New Found Glory show. Limbeck=awesome. Cartel=fab (too short of a set). The Early November=Exceeded expectations. New Found Glory=FUCKING AMAZING. I remember every deatil of buying and listening to each of their CDs and it was amazing to finally see them live. Especially in Los Angeles. All of them sing every word directly to the crowd, nodding, knowing that the kid they're singing with has a memory attached to that song, just like i do.
* "I Don't Wanna Know" first date with Matt Reese. Summer '04. Windows down. Driving down i95 to the Dashboard/Brand New concert. then we both put the song in our aim profiles. *
Oh yeah, and Jordan from NFG climbed in to the crowd and got his sweaty body all over me. deeeelish.
After NFG, sped off to catch The Kooks @ Safari Sam's. That was fucking sick because I know it is the first and last time I'll get to see them at such a small club for only $5...with Orlando Bloom, yeah he was there, the hipsters were NOT pleased. Those guys are gonna be huge. In the UK it's already Beatlemania over them and the US is soon to follow.
After the perfect end to a long weekend, it's back to school tommorow. fuck. me. hard.
