this weekend was very positive.
ojk played a show on friday. we played with okra and the blend. the blend was basically a hip hop band. they were pretty neat and caused a lot of white people to dance like white people dance. i felt that ojk was well recieved and i walked away from this show feeling very good about the band.
yesterday i went to warped tour and i could probably blog about it for a long time but i will only hit the highlights.
family force 5. killer. that band requires attention. their sound was not that great and was kindof covered up by escape the fate. i was very mad at escape the fate and wanted to show them my middle finger but then remembered that pretty soon they will realize their music is bad and that will be punishment enough for them. family force 5!
paramore put on a very fun very positve set.
mxpx. heck yes. i finally got to see these men play their music in front of people. we were very close for their set and i had so much fun. they took requests at the end which made their set even neater. once they concluded their set i went and watched the graduate play and i noticed that mike of mxpx was talking to some people. i conveniatelly timed my departure from watching the graduate and just so happened to see mike and shake his hand and thank him for making good music. it was gnarly.
another high light was seeing new found glory. you can laugh at me if you would like but they reminded me of a time when i could not grow a beard. i felt like i was 14 again watching them play with such vigor. they only played one song of their new album which was a good idea.
bummer of the day: i was watching bayside and noticed that big d and the kids table was playing near by. i wanted to see a small portion of their set and walked up and stood on the outskirts. i was standing next to an attractive female who turned out to be meg from meg and dia. i didn't realize it till some awkward kid came up and took a picture with her. she disappeared shortly after that. i then went back to watch bayside slightly bummed, but bayside's music quickly lifted my spirits.
a good day. a very very good day.
i have been reading the irresistable revolution and feel crappy because of all the stuff i have.
i am not looking forward to moving out of the house i am in now. not at all.
(this is where i would have put my warped tour pictures but i gave my camera to my sister and forgot to take my parents old one. oops)

I was almost gonna cry cuz I thought you were gonna say Bayside was bad live... so thank goodness. I am jealous of your music exploits of that day.
sad that I could not go to warped tour this summer. Where did you see it?
Andrew Voss, I am excited to see you in a few weeks.
Take care until then.
Laura
Sounds like your warped tour experience was pretty kick-a.
I am looking forward to sharing some laughs over arrested development when we get back to school. That show has almost surpassed the office as my favorite show ever.
