If I May Be So Bold

I went to see The Black Keys last night with Nic and LW & JW and I am going to confirm it, it was the absolute best concert I've ever been to. Yup, I am serious. I've been to plenty of shows but nothing was as awesome as the one last night. Although the air conditioning was broken at Val Air we stuck through the entire set for both the Morning Benders and The Black Keys. At one point I had sweat running off my nose it was so hot but I didn't care because the music was so good and everyone around me agreed. I must have really been rocking out because today I am so sore in my neck and shoulders that I can hardly move. Hello, clearly 26 is going to be a rough year at this rate.

I think what I am so amazed at is the sheer amount of sound that two people can create. Who knew all it really takes is a guitar and some drums? Special thanks to LW for explaining the positioning of the amps. Apparently they face at odd angles in order to avoid mass amounts of feedback while still providing mass amounts of sound. Learn something new everyday.

There's no way to explain why I love music so much but I do, and going to a good show with good friends is one of my favorite things to do even if I get my face rubbed in someone elses sweaty shirt or shoot the wrong ball into the pocket during an after hours game of pool or get called an effing bitch by some random guy repeatedly. It's all worth it to me. I also think it helped to have my awesome roomies b-day align with this show, because it granted excessive celebrating on a Sunday night :)

* All photo cred to JW, these are fab!

Hey look, we are dry!

Still looking dry

And now sweaty, really sweaty. Seriouly we are some "hot" ladies! Good thing I have 2 beers to cool me down.
LW is showing his Love for both us and The Black Keys.

No it wasn't raining yet although this picture may suggest otherwise. Kudos to LW's deodorant, that shits good.

We are down to about a dime size dry spot on me but amazingly Nic's back is hardly damp? At one point I refrenced being cold and JW suggested I borrow the guy behind me's sweater. I'm glad I didn't.

No better way to wrap up an amazing albeit drenched show than with some friends throwing popcorn in your mouth. I think I was the only one to make a successful catch. Faces like this prove that I have a great time with my friends. Love it!
