to start off, we got in there at like 6:15. the doors were supposed to open at 6:30. more like 7. the line that was for the people who already had tickets was against the wall of the venue, and the merch section was like open AND OH MY GOD I GOT SO CLOSE TO RICKY TERROR'S ASS.
and then we got in there, got sweet x's on our hands, and went into the pit. we got some water and decided to go on the top thing because it's easier to see down there and we didnt have to worry about getting moshed. there weren't that many people but those moshers went craazy.
four year strong were first, they were good. their lead singer looks like one of the guys from 300. and their keyboarder was cute. the lamest pit ever broke out. but matt manning walked around the top with a juicebox! he didnt come to where we were standing though :(
brighten were next, they were pretty boring but they were all adorable. matt good came out during the set and stood off to the side and did the most frightening dance ever.
and then vanna. OH MY GOD THEY WERE AMAZING! their crowd was so great. they sound so good live and were really energetic and their crowd went craaazy. we got it all on film <3
after vanna i was pretty pooped so went to go sit down by a bench that was against the wall. i felt pretty sick but then i poured some water on my head and felt better. after that, these scene kids had stools by the fencey thing and they moved to go sit by the window so we stole their seat. ALESANA ARE REALLY GOOD LIVE. like, a lot better than they are on the cd. i saw my mom and yelled for her like 9345843 times and she didnt hear so i ran down the stairs and got her. she came up with us and then we went to go buy a shirt.
OKAY SO I GOT IN THERE AND BOUGHT A SHIRT. it is probably way too big, but that's okay. i tipped ricky & he gave me 8345435 stickers and a poster. HE HIGH FIVED ME! my life=made.
okay so then we got good places upstairs. fftl played secrets, kiss me, two new songs, note to self, christmassacre, ride the wings, dead baby kickball, and the latest plague. the drummer from vanna was right behind us! we got a picture with him and savannah got him to sign her hoodie. he was rly nice. okay, after that, savannah randomly shoved the camera & her merch at me and ran into the bathroom. my mom, down at the bar, got this scared look on her face [not from the moshers, she found them rather hilarious] and then savannah was in there for a while. i recorded like 3 fftl songs and sang my fucking heart out like the idiot i am and then she came back and made motions like she threw up.
we went downstairs to sit at the bar with my mom. guess who sat behind me? a very sweaty lead singer from alesana. i thought i lost my sharpie so i didnt ask him to sign anything but i was going to get him to sign my arm or something. maybe my pants. i didnt even think that savannah might have it, nor was i bothered enough to ask because fftl were too busy being amazing and i was too busy being amazed.
they finished with ride the wings of pestilence, it was so amazing. im still blown away. we left during all the RIDE THE WINGS OFFF PESSSSTILLLLLENCEE!es. and i sat there watching in amazement from some window until they finished and everyone left me. pft.
when we were walking to the car we saw a qtpie from brighten walking around! we didnt ask him for anything though.
:) anyway, my life is amazing. aksgkdsjgkds.
