wow.

'twas an awesome soundcheck.

audience was great, except for a few people, of course.

it was surprisingly mellow. all the guys were just... chillin out, for the lack of better words. especially during the first song (boy) or two.

just... wow.

i can't remember the setlist in order (sorry, i was too busy staring at steve 95% of the time, :lol:

), but it included boy, clumsy (beautifully done. i nearly cried), superman's dead, angels losing sleep, picture, innocent, and like, two others that i can't think of right now, actually.

i got 4 things. (3, actually, but the last one was the very late autogrphed HIPT booklet that we were supposed to get last tuesday).

this crazy ass shirt that i absolutely love, yet is probably a size too small. i photographed the design, 'cuz the rest of it is just plain white:

this giant poster that's pretty much the same ad we've seen over and over, just blown up:

this creepy-yet-cool patch:

and, of course, the autographed album cover, a week late, in horrible lighting:

*holds onto everything*

:mrgreen:

THE COMMODORE PEOPLE KICKED ME OUT WHEN IT WAS ALMOST MY TURN TO BUY MERCHANDISE. BOOO. so i got nothing. not even the poster that people ripped out. ahahaha. but i have my autographed liner notes now

i was pissed that raine now only signs his first initial, though. :lol:

Hope · Post by **Hope** » 9/6/2005, 9:59 pm

HAHA i know.
mine is just like a random R.

Joel was really talented at guitar. he was doing a lot of fancy shit. i was nowhere near steve,

but joels guitar was :drool:

raine sounded fantastic... he did all his falsettos. awesome. and the ending to superman's dead was cool.

i think raine only signed r becuase he had to sign almost 2000 cd's. when i got my setlist signed at best buy, he signed it normally.

i totally understand that, but it just felt cheap.

The poor guy's hand was probably about to fall off.

How on earth did the other guys' signatures stay normal looking... that's what I wanna know. :freak:

Glad you guys had a great time!!! :mrgreen:

Hope · Post by **Hope** » 9/6/2005, 10:26 pm

the setlist as i remember it:

boy
clumsy
picture
angels losing sleep
innocent
superman's dead

and yeah like sonya said, it was tres mellow and relaxed.

I was there too! it was awesome. I was one of the last few people to buy merchandise, because when they were trying to kick everyone out, i stayed near the ATM machine.. and then after i withdrew some money, i just kinda wandered back into the crowd and the security people didnt seem to care.
Oh, and i heard one lady (who was with her daughter and husband(?)) say that she was Coutt's cousin. that was cool too.
