SO WOW. We had an amazing time last night. We waited from 12 to 6:30 and then they started letting us in. We got front front row on the left side in front of Tom (Empires) and Adam (Siska) when he came out. I was sort of on the corner.
Evan T. was up first. He was seriously awesome and hilarious. He'd stop in the middle of his song to talk and say stuff like "Oh on the record it goes like this..." He was great. He made us split up the crowd to sing out lyrics and the "Pumpkin Pie" part of that song. :P I met him afterwards and he talks to you for like EVER. I started it off by telling him I loved his Clandestine hoodie and showed him my Clan necklace and he said "Oh fuck yeah!" or something like that. Haha. I told him I'd follow his Twitter. He was all "Follow away!" and something like "You're awesome." haha I said "NO, you're awesome!" Lol. I asked him to sign my ticket and he said "Oh sure!" Then He talked about having to get up at 6am and he said he twittered to William that Sisky was still awake. Haha. He was totally sweet and I love him now. HAHA. (Well, I knew who he was when he was in Avril Lavigne's band..but I didn't really know much about him then.)
Empires were so good, though, I think all of them were sick. I know that Sean and Tom were sick. They did play 4 or 5 songs though. Tom looked so tired. :( I saw him after and told him the show was good and I was sorry he was sick. He said something back to me, and after that since he was going out I didn't bother him anymore. I talked to Sean, and got him to sign something for me. He was awesome.
William was next. Haha. The screaming was so loud. My face was like > O__O It was just a really great show. IF I can remember this, the songs he played were SORT OF IN ORDER, BUT NOT:
Pour Yourself A Drink
Classifieds
Heartbeats (cover)
Rumored Nights
The Phrase That Pays
Attention
Seed
The Shins cover
The Test w/Adam on Harmonica haha
Down and Out
Automatic Eyes
Every Burden Has A Version (Fast Times B-side <3 <3 <3 This song!)
After The Last Midtown Show
Radio (Alk3 cover)
Slow Down
About A Girl
I'm kind of fuzzy on the exact order.
So after I met Sean, and Evan. I got in line to wait to meet William and Adam. A really nice girl let me go before her to get William to sign for me since I didn't want a pic. And I told him "Thank you so much for playing 'Every Burden..." Its one of favorites." And he said "Oh! Thank you for knowing it!" haha.
ALSO: I'm kind of tired of typing RN. I'll type the rest later. haha. No pictures from me since I dropped my good 7 megapixel Fujifilm camera outside right when got there, and it has a "Zoom Error!" now and won't do anything. D: D: D: So, the girls I went with (Mitzi and Gabby) both got pics and videos, when I get them I'll make an edit to this, or a new post. :D
music: the academy is,
real life: concerts
