So i made my big sign..tthat said "Goo's Wanna Get Married Or R unaway", but i never ended up taking it with me because i knew that it would loo k totally ridicuulous..although i wish i would have..The gates were opening at 7 :00 and we didnt get there until 10 after cuz it was further out of the way than we thought, but if I had it my way i would have been there at 3 in the afternoo n waiting to be upfront..While i was standing in line to get in kids were sellin g mixed Candy for a dollar i bought it and then my friend was like "sarah dont e at it" so after realizing it was drug infested candy we made our way in..i had m y camera down my shirt but no one would have noticed, evenif i was carrying it. I was not too far from the stage but far enough to be "far". The kid in front o f me and his GF were 6'2 and 6'4 and im like Great..lol
So while standing behin d the leaning tower of pisa Athaneum came on...I really liked them and enjoyed t hem...The bass player was extremely stoned though..but what can ya say? They pl ayed a few songs..got me really wound up cuz i have their cd...and they did a be atles cover too...Then about 30 minutes later it seemed like forever Goos came o ut...I thoght i was going to passout...They looked amazing so for all you people wanting to know what they looked like this is what i remember...Nathan had on a black kind of cowboy shirt...and Robby this blue shortsleve argyleish button do wn..and then Johhny the man..had on a green beater..all tatoos shining brightly. ..and black leather pants...
They started off with Dizzy..which went directly int o Long Way Down..then Johnny said Hi and started talking to us about school afte r he u know said they were from Buffalo..hes like "I swear this conversation goe s on in every dorm,,,your smoking from the bong* he starts making all this noise ..lol* and then u say "What if the world is just like a fucking tear drop man?" and everyone laughed and he talks about how much you always hate your roomate.. .and then he was saying how school fucking sucked..because it should be a right not a privelage..and this went on for about 7 minutes cuz like he said he kept g etting off track..it was a whole standup routine..it was funny...he said they da ngle things like the loans in front of you like a piece of meat..or a fucking st eak...He used the word fuck a million times and then at one point he said frigen because he wanted to "start to clean his language up"//it was really cute....
He stopped and yelled at a few people and was like "I got the fucking mike u can s cream all u want when im done ill give it to you"..by then my pissed offness abo utt all the people that shoved their way in front of me wore off ..and i was scr eaming and jumping up and down..at one point he was talking about something and was like "who cares fuck you" and some obnoxious girl yelled out "fuck me" and h es like "allright come on up here...I maean come one people what do all u girls think im gonna say to that? Its like guys they dont care who they fuck or if the y like the person they just fuck them to fuck them"..He told the "Name story" te lling us at the begining "Fuck its that song *plays the chords* and when he talk ed about the letter he read...Dear Fagget and then said "Man i thought..my fathe r really has to stop writing me letter" Everyone laughed ..then he repeated Dear faggot...and said "thats my favorite part...."...Enough about all the talk..I w as stupid and I forgot my pen and paper but i know they played these songs..for sure...
DIZZY, LONG WAY DOWN, NAKED, FLAT TOP NAME, IRIS, SLIDE,BROADWAY, JANUARY FRIEND , BLACK BALLOON, BULLETPROOF, FALLING DOWN, THERE YOU ARE, AMIGONE, HATE THIS PL ACE and All Eyes on me...
It was great! They sounded perfect the whole time! ...Robby and Johnny I dont th ink they ever stopped smiling...Johnny kept running across the stage smiling...a nd picking up the thongs..going "Im a little bigger than this"..LOL...I was trem endously annoyed with the 3 girls in front of me that shoved their way in becaus e they knew not one song besides Slide and Iris... I cried for Slide, Name, and Iris...i was just so overwhelmed and happy to be there...I got Johnny's Guitar P ic and flipped out :)...I took about 7 pictures through the show and i doubt the y will turnout but I tried..I didnt have a chance to meet the band but being the re was like Heaven on Earth..Thank you for reading...
