Will Call Is the Shit

Went to the Regency Center in SF for the AP tour...
reasons why i went:
The Matches
The Rocket Summer


so.. there was the reg line to get in.. and the will call line..
the reg line was down the block and around the corner... full of young teens dressed their altiest...
and the will call line.. was on the other end of the building.. around 30 feet long.
it worked out well...


this was the first.. bigger concert I've been to in like 3 years...
I'm used to the smaller shows that are bottom of the hill the oakland metro even slims and venues alike...
so this was a little different for me..
i must say.. i didn't like it

the sound wasn't that great either...

funny story though..
so the crowd.. you could tell the majority didn't go to a lot of shows...
there were an insane amount of fan girls to.. it was... different...
but during the matches set.. the crowd was swaying like no other..
i don’t know if its cuz everyone was pushing forward so much.. or ‘cause people didn’t know how to hold their own.. but it was bad.. and at one point like.. the middle front region... 20 kids just collapsed...
i laughed..
and so there were these kids on the ground.. not knowing what to do.. i think it took like 2 minutes to get them all up....
the end


the sickest kids ever or something like that opened... they were alright..
not a big fan.... they almost tried too hard.. no thats not it.. they def had a cocky attitude though..
Sonny was after them. no me gusta.
The Matches were awesome of course... haven't seen them live in over 6 months i think?
the set list was kinda lame... a lot of decomposer songs... i prefer the E Von Dahl album and the new album A Band in Hope
the boys are cool though...
Rockets Summer was awesome as well.. didn't really know their new stuff that well.. so..
and All Time Low... they were aight.. i guess

so insight into the music industry... more into the world of the Matches.
Jon has a no boob signing policy...
ya.. that was awkward to witness...
and fan's mothers slip their daughters phone numbers into Shawn's pockets...
awkward as well.

was supposed to stop by talking house after the show... Scissors For Lefty is in recording..
i was planning on hanging out for a bit... but plans got changed...

and thats basically it

The Matches new album is pretty tight...
go out n buy it.. I like it quite a bit
check out Wake the Sun and To Build A Mountain.
oh i was talkin to Miles Hurwitz about to build a mt
i guess from scanning the message boards.. no one has really noticed, acknowledged that the song is a political/worldly aware song..
if you haven't either..
take a listen again and think about it..
and then maybe go out and get some in depth convos going on it.. either with friends or on the boards


i was also talking to Dave Smallen for a lil bit...
Things are going well with the work on the new album...
he says it should be coming out.. early next year...
but thats just like a guestamation



Paige is tired.
and lacking brain activity.
can’t really think of anything else to say.

End.


oh. Paige needs money.
who wants to pay her?
I'm willing to work for said money..
but.. of course will accept free cash.. hah
seriously though...
anyone have a paying job available..
will settle for unpaid internship with good experience ops
