Ten Foot Pole


I went to a show tonight, Ten Foot Pole. I felt like shit through all of it and fell asleep through one of the bands so you could imagine that I didn't enjoy it as much as I should have. The first band and the best band that went on was Closet Monster. They were like a young Anti-Flag. The sound, the attitude, the intensity.. it reminded me of Anti-Flag or even Propagandhi; it was awesome. They're from Ajax (Sum 41 is also from Ajax). The second band that went on was Trouble Is. They had a very pop-punk sound to them, like New Found Glory. That's the band that popped into my head when I heard these guys. The singer has that same, sensitive guy sound to it. Third was Belvedere but I didn't really like their sound.. or maybe I did.. but I was totally out of it and fell asleep through most of it. I was sitting up, with my hood up and my hands over my face.. and I kept drifting in and out of conciousness... and I could only think of one thing. After Belvedere was finished playing, I kinda woke up a bit and stood up for Ten Foot Pole, the headlining band. I hadn't heard a lot of stuff by them, but enough to know that they were worth standing up close for. I've been listening to them for four or five years, so I should have been excited but I was so... uncomfortable that I just wanted to go home. Anyway, they played very well and I'm going to be downloading a lot more of their music in the next few days... over all, if I was feeling fine it would have been amazing show, with the awesome Closet Monster and exciting Ten Foot Pole, it was well worth the cost. Since I was feeling horrible, it was only a moderatly enjoyable concert (the whole time I just wanted to go home.. at one time I was handed money to take a cab home because I looked like hell).

The whole time I was there, even before I got there, I couldn't stop thinking about Linzie. I mentioned her every time I talked, no matter what the subject was. Melissa was talking about how my hands were small, so I started talking about the size of Linzie's hands and how their cute and stuff... then she asked me about my clothes and I told her that my sweater was Linzie's... I just kept thinking about her.. I missed her a lot... Melissa said that she was going to kidnap Linzie the next time we go to a weekday concert so I won't look so unhappy... I love you Linzie!

I still feel like shit so I think I might go to sleep very soon. Maybe relax for a bit... I sure wish that Linzie was online... or here... or available for contact in some way... Maybe I'll meet her in the dreamworld somewhere.. anyway, I should go. Bye bye people.
