Today is the day!!! I had so much to do before leaving for Tucson with Ash. Ran a bunch of errands, went to class, came home, got dressed and left for ashley's house. Once We left her place, it was onto the open road!
Here's a huge dust wall that we passed through:
After a loooong drive through some slow traffic, we reached Tucson at headed to the Park Mall to see if we could catch the acoustic show Mayday Parade was holding at Hot Topic.
We missed it, but it was alright. We drove down to the venue and found a long line of people waiting to get in. Great. We passed the buses and vans and parked nearby then stood in line. I forget how much I DON'T miss high school. Teenie Boppers are so annoying! Though I was never like that anyway, I knew people who were, and standing behind a few hyper girls brought back those memories of high school I like to forget lol. Anyway, annoyances aside, we went inside the venue and found a spot to take pics and record videos. So many people were piling in it was crazy!
Stereo Skyline opened up the show, and they were pretty good! There For Tomorrow was up next and ash and I were pumped! I got my flipcam out and started recording. The only thing that sucked was the Audio Tech!! so much feedback was coming through the monitors, I almost went back there and took over haha. The show must go on! it did and the guys were awesome.
After they finished, we went to the back of the house and enjoyed the following bands from afar. Roxy was with us in spirit and we texted her throughout Mayday's show haha.
When they were done, we walked outside to hang with TFT for a bit and give them their stuff. Ash was hesitating so I just walked to the van and handed the notes to Maika, explaining what they were and ended up having a real good conversation about Audio Production and recording. Ash came over with the cookies and Jay got real excited lol, we talked to them for another 10 minutes or so, and as we were about to get going, Maika thanked me again for the notes and when he asked for my name I had to repeat it twice because it must've struck a chord. In fact, it did! He remembered I was on twitter, so that was a pretty cool thing since I didn't have to bring it up. :)
Despite the rough crowd, this night was awesome, and even more awesome for another reason I'll ommit until further notice! haha.
After the show, we drove to the nearest Jack In The Box for after-show tacos and took a quick pic.
We drove back home super happy and it turned out to be a kick ass night!!
Getting my house painted tomorrow at 7am, oiiii.
