Friday was just a blast. Reekie got off of work early. We finished getting ready and looking pretty and packing and what have you. For once we left on time! haha. Got to Amarillo's place plenty early, and she was finishing up with her prettiness. Reekie and I helped her pick out the cutest deep purple heels I've ever seen. I hopped in the way back of the car, with Reekie and Amarillo in front of me, the boys in the front seats. Headed to the 1020 and met up with Ultan, lowercasedanny, RavenDream, 311matman and his wife. Chris was there too, but I'm not sure if he has an SG account. Dinner was amazing! The yummiest food I've had in a long time. A few sexual jokes had me choking on my food, which just brought more sexual jokes on me. Even the staff got a few. Alot of fun! Then everyone but Chris headed to Mic's.
On the way to Mic's, I was sitting in the backseat next to Amarillo and we stopped at a red light for a left turn. I look over and see this boy that looks like a coworker of my dad's that I know. Well, this boy is MEANMUGGIN' me. No lie. So I mention this to Boogieman0330, who is driving. So now everyone is looking at this guy who won't stop watching me. This guy isn't smiling, talking....nothing. So I'm laughing because I'm nervous and weirded out, and he's still watching. I can't stop laughing, and I won't look away. Boogieman tries to roll down the window, and I roll it back up. So just before we turn, this creeper does the two finger 'I'm watching you' signal to Amarillo. We drive away STILL laughing. I've been creeped out since.
We all meet up at Mic's, along with some of Amarillo's friends. Almost everyone got a chance to sing except Reekie and I. We were going to sing Nowhere Man together, but oh well. Everyone did so well too! It was alot of fun. Bukowskii drank in public again, thanks to some very nice people who I won't name. Danny and I shared a shot, and I fell in love with Starburst. The drink. OMG yum. I feel a bit embarassed that I fell in love with such a girly drink, but seriously it was yummy.
We headed home eventually and everyone laid down to watch Evolution. We all finally went to bed after the movie.
Saturday:
We all woke up and had coffee, and Amarillo cooked everyone a breakfast that I hear was yumyumyummy. I even got told I'm sexy when I'm mad. BEST COMPLIMENT EVER. Eventually we all end up hanging out in Amarillo's backyard just chillen and spending time with each other. RavenDream and lowercasedanny were lucky enough to be able to drive home to change and everything, Reekie and I just had to go downstairs but didn't really get to shower or anything. RavenDream eventually brought over some BWW's for lunch, but then had to leave to help Boogieman with something, so by the time we ate we weren't able to go to the zoo. So lowercasedanny, RavenDream, Reekie and I headed to the Old Market so I could find a replacement 'thing' for when I get to go to Texas again. We had dinner at Spaghetti Works, which I haven't had in ages. RavenDream convinced me to try the Hot Naked sauce, which was fucking delicious. But we had to say bye to lowercasedanny and head to the concert.
Let me just say that Billy Talent is amazing. Reekie and I ended up directly against the stage in Sokol Underground. RavenDream stood right behind Reekie to protect her. AM Taxi was a decent band, but a bit too.....well, too much like Boys Like Girls with more distortion. Poison The Well, who I used to kinda listen to in Jr High was crap. Sorry, maybe it was the fact that both bands had their shit stolen in Detroit, but it was just crap. Not to mention, they were too loud. [Now, I've attended plenty of small shows where I'm right by several speakers, so don't give me any bullshit like someone did] I had my body talted left, with my right leg against the stage, and because of that my right ear is STILL ringing from the show. So they finally ended.
Billy Talent came on. OMG. Yes. I can't say much more than that. They were amazing. Benjamin Kowalewicz is the biggest flirt I have ever seen in my life. They are great performers, and are equally as good live as they are on any album. Talent, I say. There were stories, eye contact [awkward] and just plain awesomeness. I think they would have been better had they not played so many songs from their 3rd album, which is only half as amazing as their 1st. But they atleast played their best songs from the first 2 albums, except for Lies. One of my favorites. I really could sit here all day and talk about how AWESOME they are, but it wouldn't make sense to you. But let it be known, that I have gone all fangirl crazy over Mr. Kowalewicz. Om nom nom.
After the show, my voice was gone. I had screamed myself hoarse [icky] and Reekie and I stayed the night at RavenDream's house. We woke up super early and headed to a starbucks, and krispy kreme, and then home. We needed rest. My right leg is swollen, bruised, and pulled. Even my left knee has a few bruises. I've also managed to pull muscles in my neck, shoulders, right arm, and my ankle. It was SO worth it.
