I gotsta say, i agree w/jewie over there-the show was friggin' RAD! I didn't
cry, but yeah... i was in the back (heh-next to Jim Suptic of Get Up Kids
fame (yeah, i saw 40% of the band there last night... plus Chris f/Appleseed
Cast)) rockin' out... one of the best shows i've ever really gotten into.
This isn't like, a review, or anything, but it was simply fantastic seeing
Sunny Day for the 1st time. It was so strange hearing them play 8, since
that's the 1st song i'd ever heard f/them (yes, f/the Batman Forever
soundtrack, actually... tsk tsk). It was awesome that after every song
ended, i had to just smile & shake my head b/c i was simply amazed.
Well, i said this wasn't a review, but hey, i s'pose i'll give my outline of
the night, anyway...
... Me & my friends (who'd basically never heard Sunny Day before) got there
'bout 1/2-way into No Knife's set-i'd heard 'em before, but hadn't had any of
their records, so i didn't know too much... other than to expect good things
outta them. I wasn't disappointed, 'cuz they rocked hardcore, dawg. Very
impressive musicianship (i.e. different time signatures & impressive playing
('specially f/the bass player (i think they said he was new) who plays like
Nate))), & the mix was friggin' GOOD for 'em (maybe a bit better than Sunny
Day, but still, both were very powerful). Anyway, yeah... we heard 'bout 5
songs f/No Knife & after their set i did 3 incredibly stupid things in the
hopes of trying to see Sunny Day better (b/c i knew all the kids in front of
me didn't deserve it haha)... & ended up trading two rather good spots for a
space in the back where i could hardly see anything but the top of Jeremy's
head & all of Dan's grinning wigglyness.
So yeah, I saw Will come out 1st in all his wife-beatered glory & they opened
w/... i'm drawing a blank (sorry, guess that means i'm not a true fan).
Throughout the night, i heard idiots yelling out "DIARY!!!" What the heck is
THAT all about?
Anyway, my sister's kickin' me off (guess that means i'm an emo-pussy, eh?),
so i s'pose i just wasted 10 minutes of your time by writing a post that was
pretty much worthless-i'll try to be a bit more concise later on.
Dyll
