Got a sizable group together for Mexican food before the show. Good food, though a bit loud. Scored some cool promo stuff from the back of someone's car and finally got the missing trading cards to complete my set.
They had the full size LED screen tonight. Not sure what I like better. I like the single picture for the interviews, but like the wide screen for the clips they play during the song. Maybe they'll settle on some combo of that. It's still a new toy they are playing with. They really put on a good show tonight, and the audience was much more into it than A.C. so that helped. The best was the enthusiastic kids behind us who packed themselves in two per seat. and waved their glow sticks and SCREAMED THE WHOLE SHOW! PARTY IN THE CIA!!! DAD, VIDEOTAPE IT!! EAT IT!! DAD, VIDEO TAPE IT!! STAR WARS!!! DAD, VIDEO TAPE IT!!! Every song, it was awesome. They were having so much fun, it was hard not to have fun with them.
Like I said, another really good concert, so not too much to report. Had a funny moment in WBUL though where Al snuck up behind some girl texting her friend and looked over her shoulder then turned her head right into a kablam.
After the show, had passes and they shuffled us off to the third floor and then made us stand around for a half hour. Then they kicked us out and we kind of hung around for a while talking to Bermuda and Jim while Al worked his way through a line of people that was like a mile long. Next thing I know, the line's done, and the buses are leaving. Oh well, so much for an early evening.
Also, here's me and Al. And here's Jackie and Al. And here's Mom and Al. Dave
