dreamcatchingsSlept in today. Woke up for a dream in which I had been crying. Those always leave me a little shaken up.
The concert was a blast, though. Positively wonderful. The opening band was Otto. They were okay but not great. Lots of Nirvana in their sound, which I've never been a fan of. Also everything drowned out the singers. The bassist rocked though. One of those, "OMG, his fingers are going so fast I can see them" people. Spectacular.
Then there were the Gin Blossoms. Who have gotten kind of old, which I never expected. They sang most of their big hits "Follow You Down," "Hear it From You," "Lost Horizons," "Alison Road," "Hey Jealousy," as well as stuff from the new album that's due to come out soon. Their front man is awesome. In the crowd, talkative, wanting us to dance and clap and sing with him, taking people's cell phones on stage with him to sing into them (an act I have never seen before), giving people his tamborine to shake. It was marvelous. I've noticed that Louisville crowds take a while to get the energy up. But he managed it. By the time they were doing the last encore. Still so totally worth it, though. Loved every single, ear splitting second. See, since we got there an hour early![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
timberwolfblues and I sat right at the front bar, which is about four or five feet from the stage. My ears are still ringing a little, but it was fucking great.
Anyway, have an another
