Okay...If you are going the ninth and do not want to know what's going on (even though they're all they're own shows...), I wouldn't read this. We got there around 2 ish..when it started around 7. My mom didnt' even bring half a bottle of whatever she had...and before it was finished, she was druink off her ass. Let me just say, she is so much happier and socialble and funny when drunk. We met so many people. Twas great.

Upper level my ass. There was limited upper level and we got the rise of the place. It was on the opposite side of the stage, but we saw fine.

Okay. First: The opening bands. I beleive it was Against Me first. We didnt know who the hell they were. It was like, "yeah, you guys sound awesome, but...er...who are ya??" Laughing But yea, after that, there was a long break inbetween getting ready for the next band. I didn't know who was opening because I've heard so many bands: JEW, Transplants, The NEtwork, etc. Well, Jimmy Eat World comes on and they blow the place out. It was great. My shoulder started hurting then before GD even came on because I was jumping around and putting my arms up and everything. Then they stopped and yet again, another long break.

Then we see little pink bunny. when I say little...from our position...he looked little. We all did the YMCA and stuff, that was awesome. My mom was out somewhere at the time and came back and claimed to meet BJ's cousin. Pretty cool. But then GD came on and the crowd went wild. This is the order (taht I can remember..I'll let ya know when it's just random...)

American Idiot
Jesus of Suburbia
Holiday
Are We The Waiting
St. Jimmy
Longview
ALL BY MYSELF (greatness....)

Random order: (going through list on this site to find all the songs they played...)

2000 Light Years Away (totally surprized by that one....wanted to hear it since I dont' own the album yet sadly and i 've only heard parts.)
Basket Case
She
Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Brain Stew
Jaded
Good Riddence
Hitchin' A Ride (masturbation apparently hasn't lost it's fun)
King For A Day
Maria (again, surprized)
Minority
Wake Me Up When September Ends

And then your usual Covers including (may not be all of them, but this is what I rembmer..)

Shout
Knowledge
We ARe The Champions
Part of Stand By Me
I know they did more...can't think of any more

But update: Mike did not get pantsed....Mike DID wear cat ears. Billie Joe gave his guitar to a 5 year old (so cute). We met some kid (who I could have sworn was on GDA for the look alike thing one time...but wasn't...I asked) who had a poster saying "thanks for the guitar". I was like, "huh?" so my mom (who was really sociable) asked them and he got on stage in vegas and played guitar. So cute. He had the hair, eyeliner, tie, the whole thing...looked no older than like...10. So cute. I think the people behind us got mad at me for jumping to much and when the introduced mike, I got on the bench/seat thing and yelled and the chick behind me poked my shoulder...screw them. It's not like you're never going to see them....the concert just started 10 minutes before that...fucktard.

But oh. Get this. Camera. ugh. I brought it....My mom had it in her shirt and was like, "they're not gonna let me in with this". I was like, "try. IT wount hurt!" I ended up having to run it back to the car. When we got in, the people in front of us...had a camera. And security knew about it. They didn't care..jus tlike I said. But my mom gave him our E-mail adress, so he pics shoudl come soon. Hoping so. Ugh that pissed me off. Speaking of piss....I had to piss the ENITER time, but didn't want to leave and miss it. So every so often in between songs, I would take little three second sit downs. That and because I was jumping around and stuff so much I was out of breath. So yeah, it fucking rocked. Funny, great, oh man, it was just the best fucking day EVER! lol. So yea, I don't think I left anythin out. Oh yea, we saw the tour bus...or it had GD's pic on it...but It may have been for verizon. And I was up against the fence watching and listening to the soundcheck like an hour before the gates opened. sweetness. okay, this is huge...gonna end it. I'm so smelly and hot right now. Not a great mix. Smile

Dude. I don't think anyone can ever beat that show...except for Green Day again. But that was awesome. My voice is practically gone today. I am forcing it to come out. Tre had so many great antics along with Billie Joe. Mike had a few also. When they did all by myself, I had just shown my freind (who went..) that song like a week ago and when they played it, he looked at me and started crackign up. It was great. And I'm trying to think of a way I can make 45-50 bucks to get some tickets to the Los Angeles show tuesday. Supposebdly it was secret, but it's at the Wiltern on tuesday. Tickets go on sale Monday. I need to make 45 bucks by tomorrow. hm. I don't babysit, kids don't like me. IDK why though. hm. Yea, I'll think some more...

that was one of teh best fucking shows i`ve ever been to! hahaha. except that when they were showing messages on teh verizon screen people were going, i love gerard or i love sonny. sure they love them, but it's a fucking green day show. but it kinda disappointed me that my former teacher was going [[ew]] and that there were girls that would fit in at a britney spears concert there.

Sadly, the pictures the dude said he'd e-mail still haven't come. Sad I'm stilll hopeful in thinking there may be some time uploading them to the comp...Trying not to think on the downside, even though it's super easy.

Hehe. After the show, we jacked some stickers off of other people's windshields 'cause we didnt get any. We got two yellowcard ones and like 5 Relient K ones. hehe. I feel special.
