the vines...are pathetic

again, i'm dreading writing about the concert last night, but i know i should have detail...not for you, but for me, due to my terrible memory...


sarah came over around 4:30 or...5 or something. i really don't know. it was kinda uncomfortable again, since i'm pretty sure i was unwanted (i didn't exactly want to be there either) then my mom forced paul to make dinner which was also uncomfortable and it sucked...not for me really, but i'm guessing it sucked for sarah. because if i were her, i would have thought it sucked. so moving on....

we left around 6:30 to go to the chance. and then we waited on line. for a long time. they kept switching the lines around too, which was annoying. also, they were playing the local rock station REALLY loud....and it was such terrible music. but when we got there they were playing cold...haha....umm....yeah....then they played linkin park and chevelle and staind (twice!!! the same song!!) and audioslave and...a whole mess of crap. we finally got in and went up to the right side of the stage, and then kenny and his cousin whose name escapes me joined us. they were playing the radio inside too, which was weird since they never do...usually its cd's...

the music came out soon after and....well...they were amazing. their lead singer was so into it...i doubt i'll ever forget the...uhh..."dancing" that he did. at first i was horrified, then entertained. towards the end he humped the mic stand...for a while. anyway, they're a really amazing band, they can actually pull off those songs live. so you should check em out. very trippy. their album rocks, and you can probably get it for like 10 bucks. kenny's cousin said that the lead singer looked like the lovechild of bert mcracken and michael jackson, which was slightly disturbing because though i could see where he was coming from, i also thought the guy was kinda cute.

during their last song, this kid next to me who had been leaning against the stage lookin real sick all of a sudden started spewing puke all over the place. this huge chunky brown puddle was on the stage where he was leaning....and...well...i was right there. so i backed up, because the smell was so horrifying and i started coughing in that way like i was gonna puke...then the kid started puking on the floor...i don't think the band even noticed...but it took awhile for them to get it all cleaned up, and i have never smelled something so terrible. the 5 of us kinda backed up a bit and made a little huddle so we were like....smelling each other rather than the puke. then...the band was done...they left...the radio came back on...and they played swing, swing and i got very excited. me, kenny, and kenny's cousin sang (or yelled, whatever) the words and i was dancing. i think they mighta been too. i was feeling really fucked up last night...yeah then they played clocks!!! which is 2 songs in a row that i love, which shocked me. then they played good charlotte. and...i was pissed at first because i think that's most people's reactions when they hear a horrible song like "the anthem"...but i got over myself and sang and danced to that one too. but they cut it off so the vines could come out.

so they came out. i don't know about the other guys, but craig was definitely high. basically, they were terrible. i knew they wouldn't be good but i wasn't expecting this level of shittiness. they're not good in the studio, they're ten times worse live. the cover of ms. jackson was entertaining, but that was about it. craig went crazy at the end, breaking all the instruments and stuff...and it just seemed really staged and stupid. i didn't understand one word that came out of his mouth, especially when he was talking to us, and his stupid angry muppet scream was really hurting my ears by the end of the night. he doesn't even sing the lyrics...he grunts and makes weird noises in a pattern that sounds sort of like the melody. the bassist was giving him the most evil death looks the entire night. i thought that was funny. the drummer seemed to be having fun. craig needs a haircut. and some singing lessons. and some guitar lessons.

so yeah. in short, the music=very cool and the vines=very lame and sucky. got it?


i overslept today, a lot. i had to rush to get to school in time for my test. i was supposed to run an errand for my mom this morning and because i overslept i didn't have time. she was SO PISSED. oh well. nothing like this has happened before, everyone makes mistakes. she's still pissed though.


i may have passed my test today....maybe...i don't have to do my oral presentation on may 5, and all i have to do is read a story we haven't covered and talk about its themes and crap. i can handle it. so now...just three papers! hurray....
