all the lights go green. for my lord legless and me, the sacred rose queen...

last night was too fantastic to put into words. we ended up getting second row. the crowd was horrid. the matches did a stellar set. played old school-chain me free. and songs off of decomposer also. no accoustic set afterwards. i did meet jon, matt whalen, and shawn. no justin. but shawn harris. where do i begin...

shawn was wearing a bob dylan shirt. ironic because i had been singing blowin in the wind on the ride down. and his shoes were very much like my own. when he was signing chrissy's shirt he looked at me like expecting me to come for a picture or autograph. and i was like you have to take a pic with my bff before i can bestow my love upon you. i was like where is this language coming from? shawn harris must have that effect on me. he looked at my shirt and said he loved it. and gave the thumbs up. i was more than happy. i told him i loved his shirt. and commented on his shoes. he asked where i got mine and i told him they were old school-used to be my moms. i told him how much i loved his music and to keep making it because we can't live without it. then we asked if justin would be coming out and he said no he was working on an art project. i told shawn to be sure to send him our warm regards and tell him how amazing he is. shawn was like okay. i say that to him everyday anyway.


this whole time it was odd. there was a connection that hadn't been there before. i felt less like a fan and more like a friend. it is hard to describe but i felt like he was looking at me as a real person and not just a fan. but i didn't say anything because i thought perhaps i was over analyzing.


today chrissy said something to me about how shawn was looking at me like he was checking me out or soemthing. she was like maybe he recognized you from before. and then was like seriosuly he looked at everyone else like they were crazy and maybe he felt like you and him connected. and then mom said something along the same lines and was like perhaps he knew you two were kindred spirits.


so it wasn't just me that noticed. i've never been so excited after meeting shawn harris. i'm not goin to tell anyone else because they will think im psycho, but it happened. i will spend my entire life trying to figure out what exactly that vibe was last night. i shall cherish it for it was one of those experiences that won't allow itself to be forgotten.
