Tell that stupid Mick he just made my list of things to do today.
So.
I saw Rooney last night at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster...same place I saw Joshua Radin at last August. Um...AMAZING! Stupid ass me forgot my camera though. So I had to try to take pics with my cell phone...they didn't turn out so great. But it was great to see my dearest Robert up close (haha). And my god, he is even more gorgeous in person...and charismatic...and just wonderful. Haha, I'm going into fantasyland right now. They didn't have a meet and greet after so I didn't get to meet them...BUT...this is cool...Ned, the drummer of Rooney came up to the over-21 level of the club and was hanging out during the second opening band's set. And Ned was listening to Kingsfoil and to see them, he was leaning over my shoulder! Haha, how awesome is that? And then after that, someone who was standing by my friend Bri left and so Ned stood by her for a while to watch Kingsfoil's set. She didn't really know anything about Rooney so when he moved over by her I whispered to her who he was and she started laughing cause she almost asked him if he knew the name of the second band, cause we couldn't figure it out. Anyway, below is a pic from www.rooney-band.com of Ned and Robert! Not from the Lancaster show though.
Rooney had a great set, mixing some of their older songs from their first cd with new songs from the upcoming album, due out in July. Unfortunately they didn't play one of my favorites by them, "Stay Away." They did an encore but only played one song and it was "Sorry Sorry." Bri really enjoyed that song! Overall, it was a great night. I had a good time making fun of these three little teeny-boppers who were right in front of the stage, all with their red Rooney bags planted on the stage so the band could see them. They had to be sixteen or so. Silly teenagers. And then the rest of the under-21 floor was filled with OC-wannabe's.
I think that might be all I wanted to say about last night. Great, great night. Only things that could have made it better were me remembering to take my camera and then meeting Robert, haha. But I'll try to make those things happen the next time I see Rooney!
In other news, I am a Penn State graduate! Yep, I have graduated college! It's a weird sensation. I have that feeling of "what's next?"; that uncertainty, nervousness, etc. And of course everybody now asks if I have a job lined up or if I'm going to grad school in the fall and the answer to both questions is no. I'm in no rush, really. I do need to work on the job thing though, so I'll have health insurance! Wow, saying that makes me feel old. I have to worry about having health insurance now. What. The. Hell.
Well, I should probably wrap this up...I promise to write more soon and get more detailed about post-Penn State life!!
