Acadia, The Fully Down, Versus the Mirror, Boy Sets Fire
Posted May 1, 2006
yeah so friday was awesome. Went to see four awesome bands. Acadia started...theyre just a little high school band, but i liked their stuff on purevolume, so i went ahead and saw them---one of the band wasnt there--so it was kinda bad, but i still think theyre good. Next was The Fully Down....aka.....the fully beautiful!!!!!!!!! OMG.....they were so awesome....they started out with a really weird 1940s sounding song on the speakers, then they cut that then started being amazing....they blayed something that sounded like carole of the bells for an opening interludey thing. It was sweet. Gab, the lead singer was wearing some great pant---tight, but manly tight---and for some reason, by the end of the night, his pants were on the wall....and he was nowhere to be found...it was kinda weird....scratch that, really weird. So, back to the show...it was great, there are 6 guys in the band and like 2 roadies...during the show gab disappered for like a guitar solo then appeared above me, chris, brit, and ash's heads and was screaming into the microphone on top of a speaker----it was GREAT....then throughout the concert we were standing a) in front of the speakers, and b) in front of george and the guitarist with the shaved head. George had these awesomely tight pants with this hole in the crotch (patched up---but the seam came undone during the concert, those power stances are killer) in the middle of the concert at another guitar solo, gab was shakin his butt, it was really funy, then h did the thing where he drank wated and spit it up and it got all over the front people (i.e., me and my crew).....ive never loved someones saliva so much, lol ;), jk....after their set, george walked down on the floor and we all said hi--like abunch of schoolgirls--and he started talking to us...saying he appreciated us, blah, blah--and i told him i found him on purevolume and came to see him because of it....he and the band and the roadies needed a place to crash that night and because my mom isnt cool and our house can barely handle 4 people, he couldnt stay at my house---nor any of the others.....i made up for it though---i spent $35 on merchandise....that shouldve bought food/gas/hotel or something....more about the rest of the show later....ttyl.
