The mother fucking show I have been waiting for since FOREVER. It was a serious countdown when I got my tickets June 30th via online. I woke up early and excited for the show. I also woke up to a comment from ORENDA FINK under the Art in Manila myspace account WHICH NEVER FUCKING HAPPENS!!! I was on cloud Nine!!! OMG! I screamed inside! The first mother fucking sign of a good day! I thought I would be mega nervous but I was cool. Lexa and I left early and got there early. No one was in line when we first passed by so decided to hit Amoeba before but changed on mind while there and went back. On our way back heading down whatever street the Bally's Total Fitness is on I see Bjorn beautiful face a top cars and notice at the Unnamed drummer and Peter are with him walking down the street I gasp and scream OMG It's Them!!!!! Lexa looks at me as if I'm drunk and I am temped to jump out the car and attack them But I don't I am a lady and ladies do not so such things.... this is NOT 1966. ANOTHER sign of a good show... 4 People were already in line. We sat down next to them.
Rock Hudson's star was in front of us. 5 seconds after taking the photo the bouncer dude asked if anyone in line was 21 or over and going to drink. I had JUST turn 21, even the bouncer noticed that, Alex drinks ALL the time! (jk) So we were like WE ARE! He gave us braclets and let us in the lounge where, turns out if you drink before the show they let you in early. SCORE!
She orders a Cadillac margarita. It's like a family drink or some shit..
And she doesn't even finish it! So of course... I drank the rest. Man, that was strong too
At 8PM we get to make our way in durng which they play David Bowie's Ashes to Ashes... my favourite Bowie song.. another sign of a good show!
Cass was alright. I've seen worse. Sorry dude.
At this point before PB&J hit the stage a photographer by the name of Timothy Norris asks if he can take our photo. Our photo? Why, of course! I always wanted to be in pictures! Turns out he contributes to LAWeekly and thanks to him and LAWeekly.com I am famous!
They open with Let's Call It Off AKA MY FAVOURITE TRACK OFF THE ALBUM!!!! So it was a sign of a GOOD show. During which Lexa leans over to me and comments that "If I were to ever hook up with Mr. Yttling I would be VERY satisfied. After that being said I could not take my eyes off his crouch.
...I still can't
My favourite photo so far.
The lead singer of Midnight Movies sang Victoria's part in Young Folks... she did an OK job.
During the encore I asked Peter for the set list... he gave me Bjorn's and I swooned. They're so wonderful!!!
Before the show Alex dared me to blow Bjorn a kiss. I was super down for it but really didn't get the chance because he WOULD NOT stop looking up! I felt cheated!!! On the way home she also asked if I noticed Peter looking at me a lot. Thank God she brought it up because that would've been really conceited of me to think it on my own. Yes, I noticed it. That's how I got the set list. He looked straight at me. I have more photos in 35mm format... but scanning the film is going to have to wait. OMG!!! All this gets to happen again on September 17th!!!! Heart!!
