If you can't get laid in Ybor City, then you must be fucking ugly

Last weekend was yet again, a grand highlight of my summer. I loved the concert, I loved Adventure Island...I loved everything. The ride of there was squishy. At the last minute, Lauren got a flat tire, and we all had to ride up in my parent's car. The time passed by fast. We got to Ybor City and saw a whole bunch of news stations. We made silly faces at the camera. I later found out that they were reporting about a guy getting stabbed and dying the night before. So my parents drop us off a block away from the Orpheum, and when we get there, this tall black guy is eating grapes in front of us. He stops us and us like.."holy shit, those are fucking awesome shirts. The best shirts I've seen. No one's ever done that before!" He told all the other band members to check out the shirts. It was awesome. All the other people in line were major jealous that they were giving us allll their attention. After the concert, he wanted to get a picture of us to put on their website.

When the doors opened, we sat down at a table and watched the first couple of bands. The bar looked old school with bricks everywhere. The bathroom was major ghetto with writing on the walls and such. It was entertaining reading all the stupid stuff that was written. Whole Wheat Bread was great. Black people headbanging is the absolute best! Firescape was pretty good. Josh from Something Corporate was their singer. I Am the Avalanche was great. When we were at the front of the stage, some drunk guy pushed his way through, and was doing the craziest things. When the singer came to the edge of the stage, the drunk guy picked him up over his shoulders. The singer kept singing, while holding on to Lauren so the drunk guys wouldn't drop him. lol.

Finally, what everyone was waiting for...Gym Class Heroes! Ughh...I am so in love with them. Schlepe (Travis), the singer/rapper had the best stage presence. He made the craziest faces. I didn't even mind that his sweat dripped on me. They were just as awesome live.

After the concert, we wanted to at least get Gym Class Heroes to sign our shirts. Of course, we didn't think to bring a sharpie. We talked to Schlepe for awhile, and he said he'd meet us by the Merch Sales. After waiting awhile, we finally found Gym Class Heroes with sharpies. They wrote the best messages on our homemade shirts. Travis told us to wait around so he could take a picture of us. We told him that we kinda had to get going..and he's like..."oh man...well next time..next...OH FUCK THAT...I'm getting a fucking picture!!!" He got his roadie dude to stop what he was doing, go outside, and take some pictures. It was so cool. We made his day, and he thanked us. He said he'll definitely come back.

To make the rest short, we went to a hotel, dicked around for awhile, walked to Denny's, and Lauren was afraid of someone shooting her or something. The next day we went to Adventure Island. I forgot my comp. ticket, and had to pay. It was uber fun. I had a fabulous time!
