Now that I am once again at my peak happiness, let's try to remember it this time.
Last time I forgot and then I got kind of sad by that and that wasn't cool.
It was great.. we got really close to the stage. Well besides the dude that kept hip checking me out of his way even though I wasn't in his way XD Eventually I got situated into a good place.
Opening acts were good, but I really just wanted to see Bright Eyes. They were better than I imagined. I imagined that Conor was going to sound like he didn't know how to sing but that wasn't the case at all, he sounded pretty good. I loved the band, everything sounded beautiful. I'm jealous of that insane flute player. And the violin dude. They were rocking out it was insane.
Alright so.. setlist.. XD
Kill or Be Killed
Hot Knives
(between here and the first encore I forgot the order)
If the Brakeman Turns My Way
Make a Plan to Love Me
Cleanse Song (This was about getting your white suits taken to the dry cleaner)
Soul Singer in a Session Band (Conor said this was about his friend spray painting the addresses on the curbs in front of houses XD)
No One Would Riot For Less
Lime Tree
Middlemen
Four Winds
(Those were all of the songs off of the new album)
I Believe in Symmetry ^_^
First Day of my Life
(I want to say that's about right)
Then first encore: Yay.
Classic Cars
Some weird song with the opening act
Lua (with one of the opening acts also playing it, sounded wonderful)
Then second encore: Double Yay.
The Calendar Hung Itself (At this point everyone rushed to the front so I was even closer to the stage and everyone was just as ^_^ as I was)
Road to Joy (I saw they preformed this song in previous sets and I was so excited when I heard the notes signifying this song was next. Perfect. And then they destroyed the set after the song which was pretty sweet).
Yeah I'm just not even here right now I'm just so happy that I got the chance to see one of my favorite band's live and that I was so pleased with their preformance. It's so awesome that like out of the hundred some songs off of previous albums they just happened to choose the few that are my favorites.
Haha crap I need to go to bed I have school in 6 hours :D
