quick i will elaborate later (essay writing needs me!)

see subject.

arctic monkeys.

it was pretty good i guess. if it wasn't at the pne forum it woulda been a lot better though. that place is shit for sound.
and the supposed to be opening band got held up at the border (voxtrot) so this other kinda crappy band (the elizabeths) started at 8.  and it seemed like they would never end.

but finally they came out
point form for now!
-i thought they hated us
-->ppl threw a sweater or sth on stage, hit his mic stand and it fell on him (but he wasn't singing yet it was the intro to a song
-->they didn't stop between songs

but then the first stop they took, i couldn't understand what he was saying!
but afterwards it got a lot better

-they played songs consecutively and then stopped for a bit, took a break, said something or just started another song
-they were a lot more shy than i expected
-->the lighting was not really on them, for the 1st song they were completely in shadow with the lights behind them
-->even after, it was really dark and you couldn't see their faces TOO clearly but just light enough that you could see them (usually the ppl love big spotlights)
-->a lot of the time the audience would be lit up
-there was a weird toy controlled airplane that flew around for a while
-no encore

cute things he said that were pretty..actually (very) british (he didn't speak very much):
-how are you up in the rafters? that gentleman looks like hes having a good time (paraphrase)
-you guys were..pleasant and then i forgot what he said..but it was really nice (we were the last place in this tour set and i really wish i had gotten it..it was really cute and was the longest he talked for)
-(in the middle of leave before the lights come on) (with a hand on his hip) the confetti can come now (it never did)
-(beginning where i couldn't understand what he was saying but i think he was explaining this was their last leg of the tour and then) vancouver, we'll have some fun!
-lets have some fun (i think this was before dancing shoes..?)
-we'll play you a new song..you deserve it
-(guy with laser pointer pointing at his shirt) he's got a laser pen. i didn't know you could get those anymore

teehee <3
