What a great concert... again! Those roaches always make me smile :) But I wasn't alone, nope, my teddy was there too and his face was enlightened with a great big smile.
He came to pick me up from work, where I was running late because I had to work on a project there, and we were so worried we were going to miss the show. Finally we drive in search for some fast food and see the big M shining bright like the star of david when Jesus was born. We order and drive through heading to the station. Inserting our change into the box, e gets stared down by the guy behind the glass window... so naturally, we both stare back and laughed our way down the stairs to the subway line. We didn't have to wait too long to catch our ride! We ate fast, got off at St. George, and then we had to take the other subway car to Sherbourne. That was all quick up until this point... after we got off at Sherbourne... we needed to take the bus. So we got our transfers and went out to wait for the street car. Wa. Wai. Wait. Waiting.... Felt like forever and day...
Finally after like 20 mins, the bus comes, we jump in and ask if were going the right way because it was dark and we were excited and we just wanted to make sure we weren't gunna miss the show! We were told we were heading the wrong way... We didn't wanna wait any longer for other bus so we started walking.. and walking.. and walking... we were speed walking, you would be proud.. Practically running there, we were faster than the bus! It didn't comee because we kept looking left to see if it was coming...
So here we are, in the line up of the Phoenix. We're here! We're here! Next in line are we, we get carded (sadly they thought I was younger) and we get braceleted, hahahahha I said braceleted! e gets a bad look again because the bouncer asked him what his yellow cancer society bracelet was for... uh duuhhh... where has this guy been living? So anyway, we are now in, following the sound of music. Hah! Sound of music it is... but not a live band! Know why? Because nobody started playing yet! We were fashionably late (in proach gear might I add), and yet we were early... Yay for general admission because we found a spot right infront of stage to stand all night. It was great!!! The opening band was rad, next band sort of sucked... third band was STELLAR!!! Because it was Papa Roach ofcourse. teddy and i headbanged and swayed w/ the spine tiggling beats.. it was a night we will never forget.. until their next concert ofcourse.
Out of the three times I've seen proach here in Toronto, I'd say this one was the best time.. only because the love of my life was there w/ me :)
