I went to..

my first real rock concert last night!
Muse
My top 8 (plus a few) from the concert

1. The bar at the front of the stage is the place to be.
1a. No jacket required, it gets dang hot in the swarm.
2. Earplugs are not worth it
2a. Getting there two and a half hours before the door opened was worth it.
2b. Ray the bodyguard was awesome.
3. Body surfing gets you escorted out (I watched)
3a. I have been converted to only floor seats
4. Muse does not talk to the audience, they just jam
5. Going with no expectations, is the only way TO go.
(Your expectations are blown out of the water)
5a. They played all my favorites especially "Starlight" and "Supermassive Blackhole"
5b. The bassist is amazing!
6. If you need to hit the bathroom, do it BEFORE you have to run to the front of the stage.
7. Referring to #6, if needed, have someone with you to save your place.
7a. This guy I was with and I got the setlist :)
8. Jumping up and Screaming with 10,000 people, hanging with a cute guy, front row seats/floor, loud music, talented performers, and a birthday in two days.
So very priceless and so very fun.

Let's do it again!

Man, the bassist for Muse is fantastic. I'm not the biggest fan so I didn't cry that I didn't go, but I do enjoy their music. That's tight!

How about for the Paramore/Relient K concert?
