jimmy rocks my world

last night was the concert i've been looking forward to for the past two months.

a not-so-well-known band called the format opened. however, they are very well-known by me and becca, so we sang along...with the few people who knew their songs. they sounded really good live. taking back sunday took the stage next. i'm not familiar with their music at all, and i didn't really appreciate their screaminess. as i've said before, i'm not a fan of bands screaming. it seemed like they took forever...maybe because of my anticipation of jimmy eat world. finally, jimmy came on stage, and the whole crowd roared. they. were. awesome. they played a lot of songs from their new cd, as well as a few from the old school stuff. they also played some of my favorites from bleed american, like "a praise chorus" and "sweetness".

their stage set up was really cool, too...they had a whole bunch of tv sets up there all flickering different things. we were all singing as loud as possible and it was fabulous. i took a few pics of the stage...since thats as close i could zoom. too bad i don't know how to post videos, cuz i recorded the chorus of "sweetness".

i know i've been slacking on actually posting something more entertaining than summaries of my life experiences and pictures....but then again, i did warn that i'd be posting a lot of pictures.
