the concert was absolutely beautiful.
i'll run through all of the petty parts real fast...me, cisco, jess, and david went...jess and i stood in line for 20 million hours waiting to get t-shirts...i saw a guy almost died and it made me sick...i saw a boy and girl kiss 24 times within about 10 minutes, and it was disgusting...there was an opening band that was pretty good...our seats sucked really bad...etc.
anyway, the counting crows started playing at around 8:00. they first came onto the stage and i thought i was just going to cry. this was my favorite band, EVER, in the whole entire world, standing right in front of me. this was ADAM, whom i practically worship, lighting up the same air as me with his beautiful voice. oh god, i was so giddy.
they opened up with rain king, which was pretty cool. the backgrounds on the stage that were set up were really awesome, with all sorts of bright lights and whatnot. they played good songs, i definitely approved of the set list. i was sad that they didn't play anna begins, or goodnight elizabeth, or round here, but it was okay. i mean, they can't play all of their songs, hmm?
let's see...they played omaha, if i could give all my love, hard candy, good time, miami, st. robinson in his cadillac dream, hangin around [in which the opening band came out and played with them, that was pretty cool], and mr. jones. it was so nice. then at the end, adam came back out and he played the piano and sang the songs 'goodnight L.A.', and 'a long december.' the background was set up with purples and pinks and it had lights shining that were made to look like stars, and it was all just so beautiful. my boy and i just held each other and i felt so happy. i was so lucky to be caught in that moment, and i hope that i remember it forever.
but basically, our seats didn't suck that bad i guess. we were on the lawn and we brought a big blanket, and so sometimes we would all just lay down and cuddle, or we would stand up and dance, or whatever. while we were waiting for john mayer to come on, we all layed down...i was so tired i almost fell asleep. eep. whenever he started playing though, me and my boy still just layed there. we layed there until about halfway through the set, after he played "your body is a wonderland", and then we got up to leave.
john mayer sucks compared to the counting crows. all of his songs just sound the same to me. i like a few of them, but i just really wasn't impressed. so we cut out early and surprisingly, a lot of other people did too. i found that to be entertaining. so we all came home, and that was that.
oh, and i got a poster of adam and i put it on my wall yesterday. he is so gorgeous. my new poster makes me happy. it's infinite, fo sho. heh.
mm, today is my boy's birthday. he is turning 18. i bought him good presents. i got him 'seven' on DVD, the south park movie on DVD, a homer simpson air freshener, a fight club poster, and i'm about to go get him a box of gushers and a birthday card. we're going to hang out today, but i have no clue what we're doing. hopefully it will be something fun with just me and him and happiness. i need to make up for yesterday which sucked major balls...
