INCUBUS IN CONCERT

okay, so the concert last night was super! more of that to come... but first...

bit of a bummer, cause kelly was unable to go, even though we went like 2 hours early and waited around for him and we called him numerous times leaving messages on his phone with rene' calling too. while waiting, we even went by subway, which was a huge disappointment to me. okay, so i might be a bit spoiled by our subway on henderson, which was just recently remodeled, but this subway was absolutely by far the worst subway i've been to. i don't even think the girl knew what she was doing all that much. instead of looking at what she was putting on the sandwich, she looked at us asking what else we wanted. then, since there wasn't much mayo left, she put extra mustard on, like that would make up for it, and then drowned it in oil and vinegar, which was mixed together by the way. there was so much oil and vinegar on my sandwich that it was dripping off. that with all the mustard killed the taste. i was extremely disappointed. i will never go back to that subway. when we got back, kelly was still not home and still not answering his phone, so we drove to the bank. on our way back, he finally called us with only about an hour before the doors opened and said that he would be unable to make it. his girlfriend got kicked out of the house?? anyways, what made us mad that he had known 30 minutes before he called. he could at least have called us then so we could call and see if someone would want to drive from porterville that we knew. so, not only did a floor ticket go to waste, but also $32.50 out of kevin's pocket.

incubus was great. sparta opened up for them and they were okay, but nothing spectacular. there was one guy that was yelling for them to go home and telling them they sucked and other obscene things. they weren't that bad. where we were, we were surrounded by smokers, a couple smoking pot. but i swear, this was like the only place where people were smoking. had we of been able to move over to the right a few feet, we would've been out of the smoking crowd. there was one annoying girl next to me that was smoking. it was blowing right in my face and i couldn't breathe. kevin almost reached over and put her cigarette out with his fingers. there was another girl that was next to me later during the night that was smoking, but she was nice and asked me if it was blowing in my face. i hadn't even noticed she was smoking before that. some people started shoving each other and they started a mosh pit with like 7 guys next to us. while that was going on, i could actually see what was happening on the stage. a tall guy or guys always find there way right in front of me. always. it never fails. if i find a place i can see, some tall guy always comes and stands in front of me so i can't see. grrr! i think they should make all the tall people stand in the back!!! i would also kick out all the smokers! oh yeah, and i wouldn't allow beer or any alcohol at all. that way, no one could use the excuse, "move out of the way and let me to the front so i don't spill my $6 beer on you."

incubus played a rockin' set. personally, i didn't think they needed an opening band. it was nice having it be inside, cause even though it was hot from all the bodies, there was still air on that could occasionally be felt. plus, the people were not nearly as bad as the people at the phantom planet/hoobastank concert.

afterward, my love got his book, a t-shirt, and a couple stickers, one for johnny since he didn't get to go. however, we didn't get a water since they were $2.25.

on our way to the car, a train was stopped on the tracks across the street. we ran over the train and then as we were getting in the car, i found someone's keys and so we took them back. on our way back to the car again, another train came and stopped across the street. this time we walked on the train to get across. haha. so my love and i first ran over a train and then walked on one.

it was fun, but we got home super late and slept in till about 1:30pm today. dang, that's like half the day. hehehe. well, can't do that all the time, but it was fun while it lasted.
