The Exciting story of...(for realz this time)

...The Streetlight Manifesto show! :o As usual, finding anything in downtown Orlando is nearly impossible, but we ended up finding the venue minutes before the doors opened. I immediately headed over to the merch table to buy myself a spiffy new t shirt:   after that, we waited for about an hour before the show started. Dan Potthast opened the show. he puts on a pretty entertaining show with songs like "the KKK adopted a highway", and one about his Catholic school upbringing where he talks about how they told him that girls got pregnant by staying out after the streetlights came on :lol: After that, Zox took the stage. I had been listening to them since I found out they would be supporting Streetlight on this tour, and I thought the were pretty good. A little bit boring, but still good. Their live show is so much better than I expected. I've never seen a violinist rock out like that before :lol: Streetlight came out after what seems like another half hour of excruciating waiting. They opened the show with "Watch it crash" and the place basically exploded with the first note. the rest of the setlist (might be out of order in some places) We will fall together failing, flailing Down, Down, Down to Mephisto's Cafe Here's to life The Receiving end of it all a better place, a better time [Acoustic set, complete with stand up bass] It's a wonderful life Linoleum (NoFX cover) Forty days [/acoustic] A moment of silence/ A Moment of violence Point/keasbey nights/counterpoint Would you be impressed? Dear Sergio somewhere in the between Thy had mics on the crowd. I think that means we can expect a live streetlight album at some point :D My friend Matt ended up losing his hat, Joe somehow got his jeans ripped halfway up his leg, Adrian lost his shoe at the beginning of the show, and got it back by the end. :lol: There was a lot more stage diving, and crowd surfing than last November's show, and the bouncers seemed to be okay with it. over all, it was easily the best show I've been to.
