Oh.My.God. Why didn't anybody tell me concerts were so much fun?! How did I live all these years without experiencing the crushing, smelly mosh pit that, despite being smelly and cramped, is actually kinda fun and helps ya make new friends real fast (it was like a can of extremely hormonal sardines in there)? How did I survive my teen years not ever having the chance to release all that pent up angst screaming at the top of my lungs for my favourite band...or just a random band, watevs :P
So, in case you haven't figured it out yet I went to a concert last night and had a fuckin blast!! Seriously, I think I need to go to more concerts. Except I don't want to go deaf so maybe I'll invest in a pair of ear plugs or something. It was a pretty awesome concert though, I mean, four bands for forty bucks? That's pretty good eh? It was at the Royal Winter Fair and even though I didn't know all the bands playing it didn't even matter. The music was sweet and every so often a song was played that I did know so I got to sing along! Or I guess scream along...cuz you know, it's so loud...and stuff :P It turned out that I knew more of the bands than I thought though, I just didn't recognize their names. The first band was Midway State (I think :P) they had some pretty sick music, then there was Ill Scarlett who played more like hard rock stuff with lots of yelling but they mixed it with like reggae or something...bongos and everything! :D Then The Stereos came on and WOO! Let me tell you, it's like someone just found 5 really hot guys and put them in a band, I mean SERIOUSLY. That place was hot AND steamy!! One of them even looked a bit like Taylor Lautner! Hello! I mean, if you like tilt your head and only look at his profile...And last but definitely NOT least was Mariana's Trench. Sick, right? I knew who they were for sure. I've watched some MTV so I actually recognized a few of their songs, but the thing that surprised me was that I honestly liked every single song they played. Some more than others but every single one! I swear! *Sigh it was amazing. It almost tied for Best Concert Ever with the Muse concert I went to...almost. What can I say? I'm a Muse girl through and through. But I wouldn't mind if a couple of those Stereos members all of the sudden decided they wanted to be a part of Muse...like making cameos in the vids or something, with nice lengthy shots of them...maybe shirtless if it added to the meaning...Seriously. HOT. Maybe minus the tattoos but hey, NOT a big deal.
I guess I'll also mention I had an awesome time on friday night too (also at the Winter fair thingy) when I went to that horse show with some friends. Who knew horse jumping was so stressful? Or intense? Or drew such a crowd? It was pretty comical when the entire stadium did synchronized Oo's and Ah's in reaction to a horse's performance. I think the most exciting part of the night was when a horse decided it didn't want to make the jump and busted through it instead of over it. That got a reaction! Talk about scandal! Who does that horse think he is, getting all uppity and independant? According to the commentators it was because the horse and the rider didn't "Get together" on how many strides to take before jumping. Whatever. I think the horse had just had it and was showing that rider who's boss! Atta boy! :P
Anywho I suppose this week's Friday question is going to be about shows: What is the best show (yes this includes musicals Miah :P) that you have ever been to and what made it SO FREAKIN AWESOME!?
ttfn -Evie
ps. Seriously guys look up The Stereos, you'll see what I mean.
pps. OMG did I mention that I saw one of the members, Miles, up close? He was taking pictures and signing stuff afterwards and honestly, I could NOT stop staring. Totally got caught. More than once. By him. I tried to get a picture with him but the security guard was kicking people out cuz it was late and the show was way over :( One of my life's regrets *sigh...I'll just have to go to ANOTHER one of their concerts!!
