Poison the Well.. or bust. (myspace, 5-26-06)
Three months ago, I found out that Underoath and PTW, 2 of my most favorite bands, were going to be playing in Tulsa on May 19th. I was overly excited. Chris and I made plans to go to the show, hell or high water. Well, we went to Tulsa, got to Cain's Ballroom... and the show was sold out. We never thought that would happen, because we checked online before we left, and there were still tickets. We were pissed. I got pissed and went to the car, feeling hopeless. Since the show was cancelled, this guy Byron (Johnny) was going to come get me so we could hang out. Well, that went wrong, too. So, I was outside of the car talking to Byron, and Chris runs up to me, telling me to drop everything and come with him. He'd talked to a roadie, and there were really still 20 tickets left. But, there were like 200 people who wanted them. I didn't think we had a chance, so, being the bitch I can be, I told him I wasn't going to try. All along, I thought I was going to hang out with Byron. Well, I thought wrong. Turns out, he doesn't like me anymore, makes up some sorry excuse, and leaves. So, I'm left outside, locked out of the car, no keys, no cell phone. I run the 5 blocks it was to Cain's ballroom, and there was a sea of about 800 people. There was no way in hell I could find Chris. I stood there and looked for him, walked around and looked for him, then finally just said fuck it and got in line. Well, guess what happened? Those few tickets that were left sold right before I got to the window. WHAT THE FUCK, MAN.
So, I walked to this restaraunt, got some water, and sat outside talking to random people for like, 5 hours. It sucked royally. That concert was supposed to be my birthday present. Wow, what a gift. Chris and I aren't talking anymore. My best friend of two years.. gone, because of me. I wasn't mad because he got into the concert. I was happy that at least he got in. But when he got out, he was so rude and selfish. I was upset and crying because of everything.. Byron, the concert... being like 4 hours away from home. I was beside myself.. and all he could say was, "Now you know how I've felt before." He left me in the car crying.. while he talked to some people he met at the show. I've never seen that side of him. I didn't want him to feel sorry for me.. i just wanted my friend. I know this all sounds minimal... but you just had to be me at that point and time, and go through what I did. It was horrible.
But, at least I got to hear the show.. and I was the only one outside of the door rockin' out like I was in there...
