The Greatest Flipping Day of My Entire Life!!!

Yesterday was the BEST DAY EVER!!! Ok, so it started kinda sucky, but around 12:45 maybe even 1 o'clock, it got totally awesome. I went to RockFest '06. It was a twelve hour festival of great music. I missed the first band because of the darn ACT test, which I don't think I did too bad on. But, I heard 3/4 of the second band. The line up was awesome. They had two stages and fifteen bands. The first band was Halestorm. I missed them. Next was Federation of Horsepower, they are a local band that is trying to get discovered, and they have moved up. Usually they are the first band to play. Third was Evans Blue. They rock so hard. Next was Revelation Theory. They are so good. Fourth was Trapt. They have a few good songs and they played all of them. Nonpoint was inspiring except that for some reason, they began their show with The Final Countdown by Europe. I mean what were they thinking????? So anyway, the seventh band was Shadow's Fall. They were great. Next was Black Stone Cherry. So awesome and all of the members of the band are under 23. So then it was the original lineup of Candlebox. They were great and old, but amazing. Then Hurt. I heard them everywhere at this place it was so loud. Three Days Grace was amazing and wonderful and great. Twelfth was my FAVORITE band of the entire show. Hinder. They were the best and so great and so much fun and perfect and wonderful and the best and amazing and everything. Next was Shinedown. I knew all of their songs and it was spectacular. The headliner of the second stage was Buckcherry. That was the most interesting part of the show. They rocked and sang and jumped and screamed and were awesome. The headliner of the whole show was Staind. They were the loudest and most breathtaking band there. It was the greatest concert ever.

I got rained on during the last band, saw five people I knew, three of whom graduated, one that I haven't seen in years, and the other one I will see in August. I got a Hinder shirt and a RockFest shirt. The Hinder on is my favorite. I had some guy fall on me while he was crowd surfing, I had smoke blown in my face all day, I got a beer poured on my legs, I got to see Hinder, it was perfect. There were 30,000 people there and about 9,000 looked like one of my friends, but just slightly different. One guy looked like a combination of Ronnie James Dio and Jesse James Dupree, the lead singers of Dio and Jackyl respectively. If you don't know who Dio and Jackyl are, get out of my blog. Now. I am not kidding. You are not allowed to come back until you learn who Dio and Jackyl are. I mean it. And I think I saw my future husband. Not Jared Leto, this guy I might actually have a chance with. He was gothic, with blond hair, in pigtails, and he was wearing a floor length skirt. I saw him like 30 times or something insane like that. He was not attractive at all, but I think I fell in love. And he was the first person that I saw after dark and he was wearing all black. I saw tons of cute guys and managed to get hit on by only two old guys. I was told to drive safely by two drunk guys after the show but they were kinda sexy so it was ok. I left smelling like stale cigarettes, beer, rain, mud, THC (people around me especially during the Hinder song "Go Home and Get Stoned"), sweat, spit, and port-a-potties. I smelled like a concert. My goal for every concert is to leave smelling like beer, puke, urine, cigarettes, sweat, and a few other substances depending on the area of the concert and who is playing. I loved yesterday and will be wearing my Hinder shirt every chance I get. It rocks because it is a shirt with Hinder on it. Hinder on a shirt. Something I can wear that says Hinder. A piece of Hinder merchandise. Hinder on an article of my clothing. HINDER!!! Yay!

Yay!!

The only thing left for me to do is see a 30 Seconds to Mars concert. That will be the one thing that will make my life complete. Then I can die a happy person. Yay!!!!!

I admit it...

I am obsessed. I do have a problem, but if anyone tries to help me get over it, they will be hurt. Severly. I now realize that I am obsessed with Jared Leto and his band 30 Seconds to Mars. They are awesome and, unlike other actors-who-want-to-be-musicians, he can really sing. In case you haven't noticed, the last few entries I have made are promoting 30 Seconds to Mars. My new wallpaper on my desktop is a collage of 20 Jared Leto pictures. I have both albums and I have made a list of all the movies he has been in and they are priced to where they are the cheapest, Wal-Mart and Best Buy. He has two movies coming out, one he plays serial killer Raymond Martinez Fernandez and the toher he plays John Lennon's killer Mark David Chapman. For the latter role, he gained 67 pounds, but he is still sexy, by melting chocolate Haagen-Dazs ice cream and mixing it with olive oil and soy sauce before drinking it. He has lost all but 12 of the pounds and releases a music video for their new single The Kill and he is looking sexier than ever. Now leave me and my obsession alone.
