thanks to rock against cancer. went backstage at the tabernacle and hung out with paramore before the regular ticketholders were even let in (sold out show).

i got pictures with all of them and autographs. all the members of paramore were cool as hell, and hayley was/is hot as shit. she has blonde hair now too. all of the bands that signed my hat tonight asked who else had already signed it, and every single time i named motley crue, they said "motley crue signed your hat??!?!" or something along those lines lol

we presented paramore with a cake shaped like a zombie head, but they had to prepare for the show so they couldn't eat it. besides, hayley said it wouldn't be good for her voice. after we hung out with them for a little bit, they went to another room and i went and secured my front row center standing room before the rest of the people were let in. i had a great view. the swellers played first (great band) then paper route (also amazing) then paramore. shit got CRAZY when paramore took the stage though. i was so squished that when people next to me jumped, my feet would literally come off the ground.

after the show i met the swellers first. one of the guys in the band told me to tell my friends about them and i said "yeah, definitely. i loved your music by the way. as a matter of fact, i'm gonna go home right now and illegally download all of your songs." they laughed and onee of them said "ok, go ahead" haha

then i went outside to leave and all the members of paper route were out there. i got each of them to sign my hat. two of the guys in paper route looked alike, so i went up to one and said "hey, did you already sign my hat?" he said no so i said "oh, sorry dude, i thought you did. all you white people look alike." he thought that was funny..

all of the bands were amazing, and i will definitely see them next time they're in town.

so far my hat has been signed by

Motley Crue
Godsmack
Drivin N Cryin
Colllective Soul
Switchfoot
Paramore
The Swellers
Paper Route
and more to come...

i got tons of pics with the bands, so i'll post them when my sister emails them to me which will be sometime tomorrow.

here's a couple of songs from the swellers and paper route since they aren't real big. most of you know paramore though

You got to meet Hayley?!

I would do bad, bad things to her.

[BWAL]

since we met paramore before the show and were on the front row for the show, hayley saw us and smiled and pointed 3 or 4 times.

when we were backstage she said "bubba, i'd let you do me if there weren't so many people around"

and i said

"but i'm not into you like that hayley!"

... i might have made that part up though

their music speaks to you man. Like "the only exception" totally takes me back to when I first met my fiancee and all the doubts/fears I had, flashbacks to my parent's divorce and all. It's just emotional music that really digs deep into your mind.

[BWAL]

wish i would have known you guys were that interested, it took me forever to find somebody that would go with me. everybody i knew had to work or go to school. my sister ended up calling in sick to work so i wouldn't have to go by myself

[BostonPerformance]

I know you don't love me that much but I totally would have found a way.. or at least sent you something for the band to sign. do you know what I'd give for their autograph?

[Genevieve!]

nooooo!! what happened to her orange hair!?!?

from now on i'll try to post up when i'm going to meet somebody because most of the time i don't have anybody to take. i just hate to talk about it before it happens just in case i can't meet them for some reason i don't want to be called a liar

i would have taken you.. it would be better than going alone lol

every once in a while i post up on facebook when i'm going to see a band.. add me and send me a message saying who you are

it's funny because we were waiting in this room for paramore to come in and me and my sister were talking. i said "i probably wouldn't even recognize anybody in paramore except hayley" and my sister said "yeah, i wouldn't even recognize hayley if she had like blonde hair and jeans and a hoodie on" then just as soon as she said that, hayley walked in with blonde hair, blue jeans, and a hoodie...

we still recognized her haha
