(no subject)
tonight was the much-anticipated show at St. Thomas in Rahway
we got there and had to kill a few minutes because the mics were messed up. but when they finally cleared everything up, Forrester started. I have to admit they really did impress me live. Everyone always says how much better they are on stage than they were on their demo. They played really well and during their last song the pit really got started. So after they were done with their set, the second band came on but i forget what their name is. They were a kind of really heavy Rage Against the Machine sound. It was really good, and this was when the moshing got really serious. Me, Pollock, Billy and Dave King had a hell of a time. During their first song i got an elbow in the mouth and busted my lip and stuff. Bleeding in the pit is never fun, but hey why not. So after them My American Heart went on. They weren't as good as the band before them, sbut everyone still went all out. I was pretty much exhausted by the end of the 3rd band. So then the 2 headliners came up. First was Match Like Memory. I had never really listened to them before but they put on a hell of a show. The crowd was jumping all over each other to try to yell the lyrics into the microphone. Then after them was No Hollywood Ending, the band everyone came to see. I only know one song by them, luckily they played it. So then billy, matt, joey and i all did the whole jumping towards the mic thing. That was probably they most fun i've had in a long time. So for their last song everyone just went all out. So after a busted lip and a messed up knee, it was still a hell of a show.
I bought the No Hollywood Ending cd, if anyone wants to borrow it let me know
