Really? I could've sworn when i looked there was like 4 options....after you actually select how many tickets you want it should take u to a screen and give you an option.

That's messed.....

It means they will hold them at the venue and you can pick them up with some sort of identification.

Josh is such a geek!
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

I'm not sure cute's the word. But that's not the notation I'd use myself so maybe that's the problem.

Just got back from the show. Probably one of the best performances I've seen OLP give in a while. I haven't really been checking in lately, so I wasn't expecting the random songs that they've apparently been playing lately. It was definitely a good surprise. I was NOT expecting to hear Car Crash. It sounded great too.

All in all, it was a really good show.

Just getting back from Geneseo...another long day and night of travelling...I think it's over 500 miles in like 30 hours or something. If I have to eat ONE more twix from a rest stop vending machine I think I'll be 80% skin, 17% caramel, and 13% cookie center.

The show rocked of course and I attempted to record it again, but sadly I think my mp3 player met its maker due to a flying foot of some drunk girl crowd surfing. More on that later...I'm too tired to see if it's operational.

Fun? Yes. Do I want to sleep until Arbor Day? Hell Yes.

I'll add more to this and the Clarion show either tomorrow or Monday. Until then, here are three pics from Saturday night.

It was ok, not my favorite show I've seen them in, but I had a good time! There was some girl right next to me singing every song, man she was a bad singer :lol: Wait....that was you! hehe

I definitely enjoyed the show.....only about a half hour drive for me, so it was totally worth it.
Crowd definitely took a few songs to warm up....but about half way through the set it was a great setting.
Hearing Raine say the 'ol "big fuck you to Bush" was by far a highlight, in my eyes.

Sorry.....I would share pics, but my best one was well, sad. I'm disappointed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh......and if the freakin SHMUCK who was singing in my left ear ever comes on here, dude you SUCK. Only knowing the verse "lock the door" when you hear In Repair is hardly cool. And then shouting it, not singing, is awful. Fooker.

As others have stated, this show was pretty good. I'd probably would have ranked it higher but I think I was spoiled by the Massey Hall show two weeks ago. That was by far the best I've ever heard them sound.

The band mentioned it was their last "real" show before the holidays (besides a few X-fest type shows) and they rocked the house. As previously mentioned be broke into a little bit of "Life" at one point and during the encore did a couple lines from "Theif" during SD.

Personally, I enjoy the shows in theatre's and bars a little more than the college gym & festival shows. The venue itself was fine, but the audience is a little different. For instance I overheard one group of guys before the show say they were drinking since 5 and were just there to mosh. To the right of us were a group of mostly girls who stood in a circle talking and text messaging the whole time. And a lot of people thought they could show up 20 minutes before OLP went on and push their way to the front. No, you're not looking for your friends, you're just being rude. I'm not harping on the whole crowd....i could tell there were a lot of people there for the band and I met a lot of nice people too. I guess it only takes a few idiots...

Maybe I'm just bitter about the moshing because during the show my MP3 player broke. I wasn't happy how the Clarion show turned out (mehh), so I thought I'd try again at recording the Geneseo show. I strapped it to my wrist via my Live 8 bracelet and it held in place pretty well as long as I didn't have to perform any impromptu cartwheels.

About 30 minutes in the crowd surfing started picking up behind me and I wasn't ready for it. I felt a shove behind me and turned around to see what was going on only to be greeted by the foot of some girl headed for my mug. It was either get karate kicked in the face while this girl gets dropped on her head or defensively put my hands up to protect both of us. In doing so my mp3 player got kicked away from my wrist and I spent a few minutes searching for it on the ground. Luckily I found it but I can't get it to work. I'm not too concerned about it though, I have ways of getting a new one. :) I was just pissed that I'll lose the recording of the show. Ah well, if it turned out anything like the Clarion show it's not much of a loss.

Geneseo seemed like a nice, although small place. Spent some time at Kelley's bar afterward until it was so packed we couldn't move.

Looking forward to the next leg of the tour...hopefully some Canadian dates, a buffalo show, and heck, how about an Erie show?? I'd like to have home court advantage ONCE on this tour. :)
