Mike it was really nice to meet your son,I think he's a very nice kid.
Your pictures look great!I think im taking my crappy camera back! lol
Im uploading onto youtube....Then She Did...,Summertime Rolls and Jane Say's.Videos look good but sound is a lil distorted.
It was so super cool to meet some of the awesome people from this board,Bones and his friend,FaerieB,Benny,Mosh.
FaerieB.......you are a true artist and a wonderful person.Your jewlery is amazing and beautiful and sooooo creative.You put sooo much thought into your pieces.I will cherish my earings forever.I was able to give Perry and Etty the gifts you made them.They loved them and I will tell you more on the telly.
now for the show experience
got there early enough for SSSC and NIN soundcheck,listened from the parking lot.
Getting pre-sale tickets from janesaddiction.com rocked!! we were able to bypass a line that wrapped around the venue.
After we found our way around the backstage parking lot I headed out to check out SSSC and half of NIN from the pit.
NIN did this song by Gary Numen "Metal" and it was the SHIT!!!!!!!!!
and "I'm Afraid Of Americans" by Bowie I really enjoyed those two songs.NIN puts on a long set,I dont know how they do it.This was my 4th time seeing NIN and they are just as strong as they were 19yrs ago when I seen them for the first time.
It was time to go back for Janes warm up,while waiting I got to say whats up to Tom Morello,I didnt have the chance to tell him how much I loved Rage growing up and his music will always make me feel like im 16 driving in my first car blasting RATM on tape !!Feeling like I could conquer the world!
Got to see Boots heading into the shower with nothing but a white towel.
It was so nice to see Carl Restivo again
Warm-up was frickin off the hook!!! SSSC was in the room with us jammin out.Ive sooo been wanting to hear Standing in The Shower Thinking!!!!
Had A Dad he was big and strong,turned around and found my daddy gone
I decided to watch the show from the Pit area,when we got there everyone was gone lol but it did fill back up.It was nice to be able to get close and stay close.There was a few hardcore janes fans in front of me just having a blast in their own lil world moshing between the 2 of them lol as far as I could see that was the only "slam dancing" going on.I think for the most part there is no moshing because people dont want to miss out on the opportunity of seeing Janes on stage.Its just such an amazing sight to see!
I was very happily surprised to see Etty make her way into the pit with us.She rocked out,we sang along to every song
They killed it with "Stop!" the crowd went wild wild wild!!!!
thats when the two moshers went crowd surfing
It was very muggy last night.
I once thought Eric was untouchable,back in the day Eric gave off this vibe he was there for the music,in the zone, In his own bubble.Dont look at him and he wont look at you
and I respected him for that.
Eric is wise and sociable and a Gentlemen.
He should write a book,his storys and words are inspiring.I so enjoyed spending time with him and my friends.
I had one burning question...what did his tattoos mean on his lower arm.
The black band is a memorial tattoo for a father figure close to him.
The other one means "Love and Kindness" in Tibetan.He was inspired by a friend who made it through some very hard times growing up by studying Buddhism.I beleive Eric said he was rewarded a Harvard scholarship for learning the Tibetan language.
I was getting a lil worried I wasnt going to get Daves autograph on my chucks till I spotted him talking on the phone in the distance.I slowly walked closer to him not wanting to interrupt.waiting in the dark...Dave walked over to me,I told him I was'nt letting him get away with out signing my boot.He thought they were pretty cool!
no picture though,ill take what I can get and dont want to ask for any more.but I sure wish lol
Janes Rocked the show!Best times of my life!
im done rambling now
"Then She Did..."
