Ooh, Snow Patrol. I think they're playing here later so I'm looking forward to hearing about them

Sweeeeet!
Jealousy levels rising over here in the West.
All my moneys gots to go towards the "Car-repair/moving-state" fund... which may soon include the "holy-shit-but-medical-care-is-fucking-expensive!" fund.

Have an awesome time.


And wait a second... concert virginity? Are you saying you've never been to a concert before? WOW

Grunt - I'm pretty sure you'll get a positive review

MissE - you read right. Never been to a concert.

There is a great sense of unity about concerts.
I can still remember when Depeche Mode played at the NEC in Birmingham and I was about twenty feet from the stage- I bought our tickets six months in advance- one of the greatest memories of my life.

I was waiting for one of the big shows to come around to lose it. I wanted to go to U2, but didn't have anyone to go with. As much as I love Robbie and Pink, and they put on fantastic shows, I wasn't that interested.

My ideal would have been Rob Thomas (or Matchbox 20). He was here last year.

Fuck me. For $168, I'd want The Beatles. ALL of them.

phishez said...

Thats two tickets.

I saw Snow Patrol last year, they were fantastic!

My friend (the one I posted the UFO story about yesterday) asked me if I wanted to see a band on the 22nd.
I asked who. He didn't know.
I asked where. He didn't know.

Not the best of starts.

Holy! How old are you?
You made a good choice!
Although I'm quite pleased with my first concert choice: Bon Jovi when I was 14 :) (Skid Row was the Opening act) Good times!

Tug said...

YAY for you - OMG, have a BLAST!!

phishez said...

Oestre - not asking about their performance (which I'm quite sure will be excellent), but did they put on a good show?

Ingsoc - beat the hell out of sitting at home

Princess - I'm 23, but will be 24 by then. Bon Jovi would be awesome

Tug - oh, I will.

The way he described it me (trash Metal, whatever that means), I have my doubts...
