The Skillet Concert (AHMAZIN)

So yeah, I went to the concert. I will tell the whole story.

You might wanna sit down, this might take a while.

Okay so I got there exactly 3 hours early, or so I thought. I found out that the doors ACTUALLY opened at 6 and not 7. So I didn't have to wait/study for my reading test as long as I had thought. It was great. I met these two really nice girls cause my friends hadn't shown up yet, so I hung out with them while I was in line.

They let us in and I bought a TFK shirt (it said "I ♥ RAWK" its awesome), a Skillet poster and a cookie (they had a coffee shop there). When we were let in, I was very happy to be right up near the stage, front and center. The room was way smaller than I thought it would be and there was less than 700 people there. Pretty small crowd considering it was a sold out tour.

So sounds pretty dandy right? Except for the fact the fire alarm went off and we all had to evacute the building. As we were evacuting I was thinking, "Oh gosh, how am I gonna get back to the front now?" And sure enough, as soon as they were sure there was no fire, all the people pushed back in through the door, leaving my petite 5.2 self in the dust. I did get back in, one person away from the stage, sandwiched between like 5 people. I was so mad. I was thinking, "Great! This concert is gonna suck now!" Luckily, a very nice man let me back up front, cause he said it was only fair cause I was up there before. I was so thankful for that guy. I wish I knew his name so I could thank him.

There was also a very nice security guy named Phil. I have a pic of him somewhere. I might post it later.

When the show finally started, to my surprise, Decypher Down took the stage. Oh gosh I know I spelled that wrong. Anyway, that lead singer, yeah, he didn't only sweat on me. He showered me with sweat. I know, I know, he wets his hair before he comes on stage. But a lot of it was sweat cause I smelt of sweat when I came home and not all of it was mine. But musically, they rocked. I only knew one of the songs they did (The Fight), but it was awesome.

Then.......Thousand Foot Krutch came on. Okay, first of all, their intro thing, with the flag, was pretty cool. There's a vid of it on Facebook. Second, when Trevor did "Puppet", I was like "Oh yeah, he's stilllllll got it." That's summing it up in a couple sentences. Summing it up in two words, it rawked.

And of course, Skillet. I took like 50 pictures (no exaggerating) of John Cooper for Krista. The setlist was amazing. It included my favorite Skillet song, Those Nights. What made my favorite song even better was John touched my hand during that song from the stage. Yeah it was sweaty and gross, yet it was still awesome. It was hard to describe. Rosa will understand.

THENNNNNNNNN the nice security guy named Phil gave me Skillet's setlist. I was like "Can I please have the setlist?" and he was like "Sure." and snatched it off the stage for me (after the show of course duhhh)

Overall it was amazing. Except for this snotty girl and her boyfriend with her snotface 11-year-old brother. They were shoving me like woah, and bent up my Skillet poster grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Right now, my neck is no longer sore from headbanging and I get to see everyone in the play again tomorrow! YAY!

I want some nachos.
