ok last nite at crock rock so TOTALLY rocked, even though im sick as a dog.
timmay told me about the breaking benjamin concert probably about a month ago and i made him get me tickets. we thought they were for last weekend, and brian and i were getting ready and everything when timmay called me (on his way to my house) and had me look at the tickets cuz his said the 12th, when he asked for the 5th, and the lady giving them to him said the 5th. wtf. well they were for the 12th and i was all depressed cuz i really really wanted to go and i didnt think i could call off 2 saturdays in a row. luckilly george (my one boss) understood and let me have off this weekend too. and im so glad he did cuz i love love love breaking benjamin. brian, timmay and i got there after the first band went on (we had to go on a little cruise b/c *SOMEONE* thought they lost their id **cough cought TIM cough** but it was in the trunk all along lol) after wandering around for a little trying to see if we knew ne one and that sort of thing we parked our asses in the back by the bar and waited untill cassandra and becky showed up, which they did not too long after we did, and we all chilled n listened to the second band. dont know who they were but they were ok...i think lol. i wasnt really paying attention cuz i hadn't seen cassandra n becky in a while and catching up takes so much more effort when you're ill, but they sounded like they were mostly doing coveres of other bands....i dunno, i just wanted to hear BB. i started getting all woozy and whatnot cuz it was really hot and smokey and i couldnt stand for very long without wanting to vomit, so i sat in the far corner of the little pavillion thing with the comfy chairs that we were all standing by in the back cuz it was the only seat open and it also happened to have the best view of the stage, so the girls came in and sat on my chair with me and the boys stood outside in front of us. by the time breaking benjamin finally came on becky was so hot and tired and hungry (they came straight from work and didnt have time to do ne thing before-hand) that they left halfway thru the first song, which kinda sux and i would have spent more time talking to them if i had known they were gonna leave so soon, but oh well, ill just have to try to see them later. BB was just as good, if not better than i expected them to be. i knew all but one or two of the songs and managed not only to stand thru them but sing...no...yell along with them (which now my poor throat is making me pay dearly for) and just had an all around good time. i even called it when they came back for an encore (which brian didnt think they were gonna do, but i did) i just *knew* they were gonna come out and play rain...one of my favorites....and they did. i was so happy...then they played a few more before finally getting off for real and we all (even timmy) came home and crashed.....i just wish i werent sick though, i would have loved to get closer...like *right* up against the stage where all the action was...bottles of water, guitar picks, drum sticks and bodies were flying everywhere. it was so awesome lol. but yeah....i had lots of fun and the next time i hear about them being in the area u can be damn sure im gonna be there :)
