concert and halloween!

Concert Friday Night:
Ann, Mary and i went early-ish to the concert, but there was a long line. i was disappointed that we weren't near the front, but oh well. we managed to wiggle in near the front. the first act was Treaty of Paris, they were really good. i got to touch the singer's hand, woo! next was Eric Hutchinson, he's the guy with Perez Hilton in his music video. he was good but a bit serious. although he did a great remix of My Girl and Ignition. i really like his last song Rock and Roll but that's when the serious shoving started.

after that was just chaos! everyone was getting crushed and squished. i could hardly breath or move. it was just so crazy. so i got out of there fast, it just wasn't worth it and i knew it wasn't going to stop. Ann and Mary was in the crowd a lot longer than i was. they finally got out and Mary was crying. apparently some guy flipped out on her and elbowed her in the stomach or ribs. it was just bad and it sucked that they didn't get out earlier.

we were pretty traumatized so we didn't attempt to get back into the crowd. instead we just danced behind the crowd. Jack's Mannequin played songs off their new CD which we haven't heard before. for the songs we did know, we freaked out and had a great time. for the last song we got to be close because a bunch of people left. also it was one of my favorite songs La La Lie. it was so cool.

after the show we hung out a bit with Treaty of Paris and bought some merch. too bad Jack's Mannequin didn't have a credit card machine or else i would have bought some stuff. oh well. we were all so tired afterwards.

Halloween:
i had work that day but no one was around, it was really boring. i came home and no one was home so i worked on my costume and got it done. before we went out we took a shot of hypnotic, i thought it was gross. then a bunch of people came along for the walk to DP. it was fun and there were a lot of people. lots of phelps, ghostbusters, jokers, waldos, and penguins. we came back to our apartment, chilled and played rockband. we went to sleep pretty early.
