Travis again

[parklife417]

So on Friday I saw Travis in Philly. I got in line at 5pm and for three hours had to listen to these bitches whom call themselves "the possie" b/c they have seen Travis at many places including France and London over the past ten years. They were so annoying. One made a remark about how they didn't buy the band's last album and one said she thought Fran was gay. Agghh! Why do people like that get to follow and know the band? Neil came out and said he was going to get some soup. I was trying to get his attention to ask for a drum stick but those bitches hogged him up and he ran away. So 8pm the doors open and much to my horror, they are checking bags. Luckily the lady at the door was awesome and let me go in with my camera. I not only brought the little crappy camera, but I brought the big Canon. So I ran front and center in front of Fran. Ahhhhhh!!! Perfect spot. So the band came on about 10 and during "Selfish Jean"  Fran looked at me and made a funny face with his eyes and then smiled. I got a couple of other Fran smiles and at one point he jumped up with his guitar right in front of this girl and I. Then much to my annoyance, he dedicated a song to "the possie" damn. I took like 75 photos and all without flash so I think that is why they didn't bother me. After the show I waited by the one bus and Andy came out and got a photo and an autograph with him. Dougie came out next and was like "Ah front row again." I was waiting for Fran and then a crew member told me that he sneaked out the back and went to the other bus whihc was a block away. Grrr. I went there and this group of people said Fran was already in the bus. Lame. Oh well. I already met him in Minnieapolis and had the time of my life at both shows and got great photos like I wanted. All is good. Here is a sample photo and then below is a link to the album:
