Girl at the Rock Show

Aug 12, 2009 00:09

So in an effort to temporarily forget all the terrible decisions I've been making lately, I bought spur of the moment tickets to Green Day/Franz Ferdinand this evening. I missed the bus, so I had to pay for parking, too, but I'm $70 poorer and can now say I've stood in the mosh pit at a Green Day concert.

It's...not actually as dramatic as it sounds. Although there were crowd surfers directly overhead (I'm apparently too short to help hold them up. )

Was actually a lot more excited about hearing Franz Ferdinand, and...they rocked my socks, even though they only played for like 30 minutes (they OPENED. Franz Ferdinand was an OPENING ACT. IS this bizarro world???)

But, despite having much more awesome music, Franz Ferdinand did not have: men in bunny suits drinking beer, saxophones, harmonicas, fireworks indoors, disco balls, water guns, covers of Johnny Do Good, or pirate hats. Green Day did. So, your call which was the better show. :)

Also, some guy tried to pick me up. I swear, I can't take myself anywhere. :)

Well, I gots to teach tomorrow, so good night and good luck. It's been the time of my life. (not really, but it seemed the thing to say. :))
