last night was so awesome!(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
so at the last minute my room mate cancels on me, telling me she’s not going to the show. so it’s just me, manfriend, and two other guys. at least there was more room in my car.
what was funny, is that my car is a piece of shit, and we weren’t even off campus when it died. but it started back up and made it the rest of the way. that just didn’t give us much hope.
anyway, we got to columbia about an hour before the doors opened and stood outside freezing for a long time. and the boys sold my extra ticket and gave me the money. i made twenty dollars out of going to the show, because my room mate paid for her ticket even though she didn’t go.
the first band was pretty awesome, authority zero. i had never heard their music before, and they were really great on stage. i didn’t really think i was going to die in the mosh pit during their set. but really, i’m not a big fan of crowd surfers landing on my head because i can’t lift them off me, i just get stuck. haha. it was crazy, i was wearing a hat and lost it on the first song.
the starting line was great, but their set was really short and less energetic than the last time i saw them. they were really the whole reason all of us even wanted to go to the show. the mosh pit was crazy when they went on and i could only stay in there for about two and a half songs. at one point, about 10 of us fell down all over eachother, and i was one of them. all these people were pulling at me to get up and i just kept falling, haha. anyway, i got back up to realize that i lost a lens out of my glasses. so i’m stuck wearing my contacts until i get some new glasses.
i got out of there and went up to this little platform thing, where absolutely no one was really moving or singing. i think i annoyed people because i danced and sang and screamed. it was fun.
no use for a name was next, and i saw pieces of their show. we spent a lot of time wandering around during their set, and i got autographs from kenny, matt, and mark from the starting line. it was really cool seeing manfriend so excited about meeting the guys from the band again because he loves them.
i like how i still call him manfriend in this thing.
sum41 is fun, but we didn’t stay for the whole thing. one of the guys i went with had a killer headache, and we had a four hour drive back anyway. what i saw was really cool. i love shows so much.
we got back to school around 4 in the morning, and i’ve hardly slept at all. i took some no doze to stay awake on the drive back. apparently that stuff works for me, and i didn’t even take much.
i’m sure there’s other exciting things to mention about last night. but man, superfun times everything.
