Muse is VERY good. The Movielife is VERY good. Yeah Yeah Yeahs are amazing. Piebald rules.
yeah.... your awesome.... soo many shows. I still have my dashboard/saves the day/the anniversary ticket stub. he he he...
incubus was one of the best bands i've ever seen in concert.
ahhh they are demonized please never speak to me again
(hint - that was sarcastic)
Wait which one? There are two.
i don't understand this. are you bragging? should i list all the times in my life i've left my house?
please tell me that you haven't spent - $15 + $3 ticketmaster handling charge x 22 = $400 plus gas, tolls, and the rest
this makes no sense ... invested at 10% with some mutual funds, you'd have $474. You'd have made $80 in INTEREST ALONE since 2002. This worries me.
so your saying that she should stay home and drink soy milk and lift 2 pound weights instead of going to a show? Shows are amazing... youd be a better man if you went to a few once in a while...
wow. i've been to quite a few shows in my lifetime. my nipples are on the GoldFinger tour video. but your mom still loves me.
i have NEVER been to a show with me, therefore , clearly, you havent been to any.
uhm you have been been to a show with you?
you haven't been to a show with yourself? how do you know you've been to these shows then?
both you and dan are talking jibberish... i only spreak dumb english..
hahaha....this should be marked funny
Dude, did you just refer to your nipples? Can we refrain from all talk of man-nipples? Man boobie-talk we tolerate, but this is clearly too much..
mmm chocolate soymilk is great
and chocolate rice milk too. don't forget.
sarah, your just wierd...
you're just weird
nice correction miss grammar
i dont need grammar, im really really really ridiculously good looking.
funny! or were you trying to be serious?
im always serious.
wow, tell me how to get 10% interest and i'll be your best friend
I've thought of this. I wish I had ALL my ticket stubs from all the concerts I've gone to. As of now, I can't remember HALF of the shows I've been to. I think I might try to make a list of the bands I've seen. That'd be fun one day.
no no i'm not bragging i was thinking on the same level as you like....its been fun but i could have used that money for better things ahah. thus 'ridiculous'
u are very cute.
i'm stoked you saw Bad Religion!!! true pioneers of punk! everyone MUST see them!
i've been to like 3 shows. thrown out of 2. and 1.. i fell asleep at.
I WIN
I remember the days when Katie, Jon, Mike and I went to like 3 shows a weekend. I don't think I'd ever be able to list all the shows we went to - it'd be over a hundred, easily.
yeah seriously.... those were the days... ahhhh im gettin old.

First date with my wife:
2002 - Weezer/Ozma/Saves The Day
I have to say that I am quite impressed by all your shows. Honestly there was a point where I'd go to any show, cause it was just my addiction.
Also awesome that you have Elliot Smith lyrics on your biopic. Not to many people are in to him and that is quite cool - we should go to a show sometime.
AND you went to Curiousa... very cool.
yeah robert smith rocks my socks
he is the ONLY man who can wear red lipstick and remain ULTIMATELY a rock god.
In no specific order I have seen:
Britney Spears
Weezer
The Donnas twice
The Exit twice
Rx Bandits three times
Reel Big Fish
AFI twice
The Toasters twice
Dashboard (opening for Weezer)
Sparta (opening for Weezer)
