More Shows!!

Holy shit...I had the best time last night. I watched Say Anything for the first time and I was literally blown away. I have never been so excited at a show and never enjoyed myself so much. The crowd was amazing and Max was telling us how this was the best show he has ever played at and how he has never seen such an amazing crowd. I think the venue helped out a lot, I have to say El Corazon is the best venue I've been to yet, its a much smaller venue which yields a more intimate experience. I probably sound gay right now (not that there is anything wrong with that) but Max was everything I thought he would be and then some. His voice is amazing and he gets the crowd going with his amazing attitude and he is hilarious. He also pantomimes what he says in his songs for example: when he sings "got your scars on my wrist..." he pretends to cut his wrist, very much like I do when I sing along to their music(not sure if that came out right, I do NOT cut my wrist). They played a lot of songs from Is a Real Boy and In Defense of the Genre including: Alive with the Glory of Love, Yellow Cat/Red Cat, Wow, I can get sexual too, Woe, The Futile, Slowly Through a Vector, Its a Metaphor Fool, Admit It! (which they closed with, seriously so epic). From In Defense they played: Spores, Have at Thee!, This is Fucking Ecstasy, Shiksa, Baby Girl I'm a Blur. And they also played like three or four songs from their new album coming out November 3rd(my birthdays coming up if you weren't sure what to get me). OMG I just realized they played a lot of songs...O_o I also watched Brand New with Manchester Orchestra which was cool better than the Puyallup Fair. It was at the Showbox Sodo which is bigger than I thought it would be so, like I said earlier not as intimate as the Say Anything show. Manchesters short was waaay too short which was very upsetting. Brand New played a shit load of great songs old and new and Jesse Lacey was funny as hell. What a great week, but now its time to think about school (I dunno how im gonna do that with my 21st birthday coming up).
