thanks guys 
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

ALRIGHT!!! My week and a half of chaotic fun is finally over, so I'm back. Most people already said most of what I would, but yeah... the show was absolutely fantastic. The fact that a bunch of us were there together hanging out and having fun when OLP wasn't on stage certainly helped make it even better (as it always does).

Thanks so much everybody for making it so much fun. Especially Matt for obvious reasons.
Anyway, the show itself. Well, the band sounded great, though hearing Raine was difficult. I think all I heard of him was what was actually coming out of his mouth in front of me rather than the speakers.
He was I'd say about 2 or 3 feet directly in front of me (I could literally feel his breath on me when he was singing
... and if I'd put my arm out not even completely outstretched, I could've messed with his hands on his guitar
).
The new songs were so very good, and I'm looking forward to the album even more now. It was strange singing the parts from the Promosquad/CC clips along but not being able to sing the whole songs.
Umm, what else. Oh, I got crushed between Raine and the crowd near the end.
He put the mic out to get people to sing along and everyone pushed forward, and since the stage went up to my knees, I basically got pushed onto the stage, but not really cos I was half standing on the ground still. I wound up with my upper arm/shoulder against Raine's... umm... posterior.
Talk about feeling REALLY awkward!!
When everybody was raiding the stage, I tried screaming at them to stop and not let them past me to get up there... but it didn't work.
That was really horrible to watch, and I can't believe people acted that way. People were seriously greedy, it was disgusting. One kid even reached over me as I was trying to peel Raine/Steve's setlist off the stage (which was right in front of me and I didn't go out of my way to go and snatch) and take it from me. He failed...


He did manage to take Raine's Somewhere Out There lyrics from under my purse, though. I was gonna give them to someone else in our group.
Oh yeah, and Steve had Soozy on the brain when he signed my setlist...


Umm... other stuff happened but I'm not gonna take up any more time with this post cos I still have the rest of the board to read.
Oh yeah, but something that I didn't notice anyone else mention. Raine said that they didn't know any more songs than were on the setlist (when people were yelling requests and we all moaned when he said it was their last song). So let's all hope they practice lots more songs by the time we see them again!
Is that the piece that was stuck around my finger??!

text is green when I sign in now.... strange.
nice pics back there... I thought we took more?
I'm gonna talk to some people at the Mod Club this weekend... we'll see when this show is. I do think it will be late August.
I told Duncan to play there
I Love that place... I saw Sarah Slean play there, and Daniel Victor... among others. KICK ASS.

Actually I ripped it off the stage where Steve was, it was holding down a box of some sort.

Nikki if that is from your setlist( upside down) I think it is 2005, not sooz.. At least that is how I read it from your setlist. Steve, OLP, 2005nikki4982 wrote:

I was looking to see if I had anything where he'd written 'Sooz' to compare, but he tends to call me Susie rather than Sooz most of the time, so I have nothing
Nikki and Melissa - next time you see him (cos you'll be seeing him sooner than I will) you have to make him write Sooz just so we can see what it like.
