the say anything concert...i ended up taking my cuz with me. we got there about three hours before the doors opened and there were only three people in front of us in line waiting. we passed the time by giving names to all the people getting off of the tour buses. the guy i coined as my bff ended up being chris freeman from the band manchester orchestra. he is amazing. he brings sexy back to piano playing(and of course i love players of my instrument of choice.) me and my cuz went to the army surplus store down the street to look around...and guess who ends up coming in...chris. i got to get my pic with him after the show and tell him he was my new hero. i'm serious. i love that kid. manchester orchestra was great. we got front row of course. and max bemis and alex kent were so close. i made eye conatct with both. i was like speechless. they did an awesome set. ending with admit it! hell yes. i don't know what more to say. they are amazing live- if i ever get a chance to see them again i will go in a heartbeat.
another amazing thing- i discovered a band called weatherbox. great music and energy. all the guys sing and it's just like awe inspiring. i met them afterwards- all but the drummer who looks like a blonde bert mccracken. i got pics(there on my cuz's camera and i haven't seen them yet. i want them bad.) and struck up a convo. some of the sweetest guys i could have ever wished to meet. it is love. no other way to put it. i told them they were going to have to make it big one day. and the bassist(complete hottie) said people don't care and he screamed at these three guys going out the door"we're weatherbox" and they didn't pay attention and he was like see? and i was like they have no taste in music. people like that don't count. and i was talking to the main singer cause he was all like yeah it's never going to happen. i was like you're opening for say anything and you're amazing. i was serious about everything i said for the record. i said it was love. seriously as soon as the music started i was like this band-they are something for sure. much love to weatherbox. go check them out.
one quick side note: i learned my lesson. i saw all the members of say anything and the other bands. yes including max bemis before the show and i didn't go up and ask for a picture or anything because i didn't want to be a pain. needless to say i only got to meet one of the members of say anything after the show. boo hoo. i guess there is always next time...and i learned. so there.
