I'm the happiest, tired-est person in the world.

I went to the Silverstein show last night! Yipee!!
It was awesome, completely and utterly amazing. And now, I'm going to proceed with my first buzznet concert review! yays!

So me and my friend alina (there! i namedropped you, happy?)  got to KH (kool haus, all the cool kids abbreviate it) at about 4:30 but there was already a pretty long-ass line. We were waiting ... and waiting ... and there was this couple in front of us. The guy went to put their coats away, and when he came back, he had to jump over the snow bank and landed right in front of me. The girl laughs and says "careful! you almost trampled the little girl!" Hold up, missy! I may be petit, but I'm in no way a "little girl". I gave them the death glare, but I don't think they saw it. Oh well.

When we finally got in, we decided to skip merch and get it later and go right on in. We were pretty close to the stage, second row-ish, but we were standing so you couldn't really tell. We were waiting for our friend Zack, who got in at the last minute, we pulled him into the crowd, and then waited ... and waited.

And then Devil Wears Prada came out! Whee! LMAO. They played Goats On A Boat, and some other songs and then they played Hey John. My 2 fave songs. And the only two songs I know all the lyrics to. Shut up, I never said I was their biggest fan.

After them, illScarlett. I loved their green set, totally awesome and they're amazing live. "And here's a less pussy song for you all" lmao!

I guess I should mention that after TDWP, they pulled the curtain back to reveal the illScarlett backdrop thing. But they didn't do that after illScarlett, but it was okay because we all know Protest was going next. But they pulled back the curtain to reveal...

the silverstein backdrop! DUN DUN DUN!
I didn't make much of it, but people started booing. And then they started chanting 'Protest! Protest! Protest!'. Which, came the statement from Alina "hey! they're protesting for protest!". Stupidest joke, but so fucking funny. But Protest The Hero eventually came out, and needless to say people were happy.

And then when they finished, a bunch of people started walking towards the back, so we inched up and got pretty close. I think there was a group of people who wanted to see protest and illscarlett and tdwp, and another group that wanted to see silverstein. Personally, I liked all of them.

We waited EONS for Silverstein. And then the lights dimmed, and we realized they were here! YAY! A bunch of creepy music started playing and then they came out. Finally. For a second, I blanked, but I quickly revived from all the moshers and pushing. And then we sang, danced and moshed the night away. At the end I got gray SILVERSTEIN shirt.

Best. Night. Ever.
and we got Mike Hranigan's autograph!

Next concert? Alt Press Tour 2008. And I know it's kinda early, but I gotta find someone to GO-TRAIN to Warped with this year. Alina isn't going, and neither is Zack. : (

But ending on a note of Silverstein - AWESOME!

illScarlett.

TDWP. Picture Perfect ... except for the security guard >.<
