Wow. What can I even say about tonight? One of the best nights EVER.

Came up from Chicago. As usual, the show was awesome! At the end, Scott throws a drumstick up to me in the balcony and I catch it! HELL YEAH! Did any of you see me?

But if that wasn't enough, my girlfriend and I got to meet the band outside after the show!

Incredible, just incredible. Mark, Scott, Brian and Myles are truly some of the most down to earth, classiest, and just overall nicest people you will ever meet. How many other bands of their caliber come out and talk with every fan that is waiting for them after a show? Unreal. These guys will always have my love and support!

BTW this was my 4th show. I'm already trying to plan #5!

Quick rant, sorry.

[rant]

Milwaukee seemed to have a pretty weak crowd tonight. Being from Chicago, weak crowds are pretty much non-existant, so I was pretty shocked.

Being up in the balcony, I had a clear view of everyone at the front row down below, and HALF of the kids on the rail were just standing there, staring off into space. No emotion half the time or anything. WTF?!?! You are at a rock concert, not on your couch staring at MTV! DO SOMETHING!

There was one kid in particular. Damn, you have no idea how bad I wanted to throw my beer at him, LOL. He would only move or give the horns if his buddy next to him did it first. I only studied this guy for a minute or two, but it was pissing me off!

Indifference at a concert is just one thing I will never understand. Ever. If you don't care, why are you there? And also, why are you in the front row?!?! Give that space to someone who will appreciate it.

[/rant]

I feel better now.

The last Milwaukee show had a "rougher" crowd. I talked with Michael during the Aftershow party and he said that this time there were more people at the show. So that's pretty cool. They had a bunch of walk-up sales.

The more, the merrier.

I just don't understand what people like that are doing on the rail. It's like, you wait around all day for that spot, then show no emotion? It baffles me.

Thank you! That pisses me off to no end. If you're not that into the band, get the hell off the rail and let someone who is have that spot. People just irritate me so much sometimes.


Thanks for the review, Chris! I'm going to my fourth AB show on Feb. 12. Can't wait!

I was standing in the back by the soundboard at the show so I didn't see what you were talking about, but I would have been glad to take that person's spot lol... standing in the front is always so much fun, I don't know how you could not move around or get into the show.

I am very tempted to go to that show. If I can find dirt cheap airfare, it might happen....
