listening to: Ivan - The Flies
i am so happy that i got to see Ivan, but so sad that i'll never see them again.
seriously, THAT SHOW WAS COST.
opening band, Reinventing Yesterday was meh. metal. metal by numbers.
Brothers was cool. seemed like cool guys with good music. liked.
La Dispute is so epic! started off the show with a rendition of the Death March song played on melodica. you'd know the death march if you heard it. played when somebody dies. very ominous. very awesome by La Dispute. they played a new song never played for an audience before. it was phenomenal. great 2-stepping parts, i got my dance on. that band is just so great. if/when i'm on stage and have fans, i hope they are as cool as la dispute fans. i guess i'd have to be as cool as la dipsute to get that. i'll have to try.
Ivan was really really good. I had no idea. This was their second to last show before the band ends. Such a good band, so sad to see them breaking up. The performance was incredible. The guitarist was awesome, and the bassist was better at guitar than i am. They traded instruments a few times. They had an old bassist no longer in the band come out and play with them a couple times. so cool. jordan from la dispute jumped on the guitarist's back during a guitar solo and pretended he was riding a motorcycle. so good.
one of the best concerts i've ever been to. absolutely lovely. lots of friends there too. couldn't be better.
on a side note, a strange thing happened today. alex's friend steve was at the concert. it turns out he really likes my music on SteroFame, and he didn't know it was mine. he was shocked to find out that it was me who had made the stuff he had been listening to and liked. i was shocked to run into somebody irl who liked it. crazy. this further proves my theory that there will always be somebody out there who likes your music. and it made me happy.
so anyways. sleepz tiem yo. i am le tired.
