Meteora Tour
Part 1:
I just got back, a few hours ago, from the Linkin Park, Hoobastank, Story of the Year, and POD concert. The night turned out sicker than I had expected. We were waiting outside to be let into the Forum and I got to meet the singer and drummer from POD. Then once inside I found my way to a backstage area, but I thought it was the other entrance to the pit section. So I am in this area and I meet everyone from Story of the Year, Markku and Chris (from hoobastank). I talked to Chris about drumming and that I would try to catch his drum stick and he said that he will look out for me (keep that in mind). Then I walk back out to the pit and can over hear the security people getting mad that I didn't have a tag and that I was let in the backstage area. Then I took a picture with Doug from hoobastank. Then I went to the Hoobastank "Meet and Great" where I got all their auto graphs, took some photos, and all the band members told me "Turbulent Rocks!" and I got it on video. Hopefully we will put it on the Turbulent website soon. Well after the "meet and great" I went back to the pit area and Story of the Year came out and played an amazing show. The singer came out to the crowd right where we were and saw the sticker I gave to him and took another from my bro and he was holding it up while singing in the crowd. That was until he want back up to the stage and put the sticker in his pocket. They did a cover of "Enter Sandman" which was badass. Then Hoobastank came out and played an awesome show. Doug Came over to our section of the pit a lot. I nodded my head and showed him the turbulent stickers and he nodded back and pointed, it was sick. They did a cover of "Girls just want to have fun" which was funny to hear Doug sing like that. At the end of their show, Chris (the drummer) threw one stick to one side and then came right over to where I was and threw the stick right at me and now I have it sitting in my room (It was hard to keep it intact for the rest of the night). POD played an awesome set as well. By this time of the night, were were all so tired from being pushed around in the pit. POD played some tight shit and even played some new songs. Next was Linkin Park, who played an amazing show. Seeing this show from the seats, and then from the pit, I must admit that standing in the pit is about 1000x better than seats. Their performance was flawless. They ended the show with "one step closer" and the singer of POD and Story of the Year (Doug didn't come out this time) came out and sang the last part of the song with linkin park. It was an amazing show and I had a lot of fun. I can't wait to see all these bands again sometime.
If I knew how to put pictures on to a livejournal I would put pictures from the show, but I don't really know how to anymore. If you want to check out some pictures you can IM me at: MetalGTarMaster. Keep it real everyone.
PS: I started working on a pedal board for my guitar a couple weeks ago, and now I'm almost finished. Just a few more minor things i must get and I will be done. We are in the process of writing new stuff and improving a couple old songs to fit our new style. PEACE.
