The band
walked out and almost immediately started Israel's Son. I
think most of the people at the concert only came because
they knew their latest songs, because not many people were
singing along to the Frogstomp and Freak Show songs. The crowd
was good during Ana's Song… I think at least three quarters
of the crowd, in the pit and on the stands, were singing along.
The next
songs were great, and the lighting was amazing! I thought
that really added to the whole Neon effect, but it seemed
like Dan wasn't really getting into it. I mean, he sounded
like he was tired and wanted to go home, but it still was
a pretty awesome show. Ben was going nuts on his drum set,
Chris was going mad with the bass, and Sam was just doing
his thing! Dan did the bible quote and the "Who believes
in Satan?" thing. He said that everybody cheered for
Satan, except for 'some place' in America with the Mormons.
I presume he was talking about Utah, then said something in
an American accent. And like previous shows he did the Hallelujah
thing, the whole shabang. During the "We are the youth"
thing, instead of chanting "We are the youth," people
started singing the song. That was kind of frustrating.
At the
end they came out for an encore and did Kick Out The Jams
and No Association, which was really awesome, since I absolutely
LOVE No Association. Ben went mad! They all did, it was truly
awesome. Then they left the stage, without saying goodbye
or thank you or anything. But hey, the show definitely made
up for it. Three hours in the mosh, and only one bruise. That
I am proud for. |
