almost an hour.
fob is throwing down the guitar riffs to thriller as i type. so far, so amazing. a little less than 60 minutes into this performance, and it's exceeded my expectations.
the group treated philly to a couple acoustic performances, including a solo version of "golden."
pete told the crowd right before this song that we'd hear a longer set – the group won't be playing in the states for much longer (overseas tour for once).
gotta jet – the takeover, the break's over!!!
30 minutes in…
fall out boy is on 30 minutes of rockin' the spectrum. after a little tease, it seems the group is diving into the latest cd, "infinity on high." we've already heard carpal tunnel of love and hum halellujah.
here comes "i'm like a lawyer (me & you)"
patrick's voice is unearthing. lovin' it.
meeee andddd youuuuuuu
the good, bad, and ugly…
good – gym class heroes ended their set strong. you figured patrick stump would cameo for one of his two collabs with gch, and he didn't disappoint. stump jumped on his own hook of "clothes off!" awesome stuff – the guys voice sounds better live than recorded… atleast for now.
bad – the atm is located 30 miles from where we're sitting.
ugly – can't pay with credit cards at the concessions. wtf with this place.
ever heard of the artic monkeys?
seems the gym class heroes have. travie and the boys from upstate ny covered one of their songs midway through the set, only moments after asking all of philly to jump to van halen's hit.
the spec looks pretty full. no seating on the floor – and its packed like sardines halfway to the end.
the three of us are sitting on stage left, in the press box. no free food or wireless internet. basically i'm lost.
love gch, but i've seen them multiple times already. i'm ready for fob.
you know the concert is comprised of emo-friendly bands when… the merch line is jam packed, and there's no wait at the concessions stand :X
well this sucks…
the wachovia spectrum lacks internet connectivity. so looks like i'll be blogging from the bberry. pics and vids will wait til later tonight.
gym class heroes are now. geneva, ny stand up! started with "cupid's chokehold." went into "the queen and i." now travis is gabbing.
yes – favorite song now. ttyl after their set.
the heatness.
so just in case the wachovia spectrum decides to deny my laptop entrance into the arena, i have set up my blackberry to blog. funness my friends, funness.
anywho, im doing marino's show now til 6, then its off to philly for the big show. expect a blog update or seven on the way down.
ps i really hope we don't miss the performance of cute is what we aim for. wny represent!
k back to the show. later skater.
