I know, I was thinking that also. I was on one of those internet phones in the airport with the small keyboard.. I couldn't fix the mistakes cause my flight was boarding. I was just exhausted..

Here is the review of the OLP show in LA...
the viperroom is extremely tiny.. I was in front of Raine( i have a few photos to post when I scan them in)..The stage was small so no matter where you stood you got a good view..

Here is what they played:
Picture
Future
where Are You
Innocent
Angels
Clumsy
Superman
Smile
Boy
Circles
Starseed

The only thing bad about this show was the sound was a bit mumbled at times.. I could barely hear Raine's vocals on some songs.The guitar came across as loud at times also. That also could be cause we were right on top of the stage/amps. Other then that it was amazing. I was in front of Raine. Actually under him.. Not a good place to be in a small place. He practically dropped the amp on the front one song.. Came half way off the stage. Another song the mic stand fell. I caught it.. We won;t even say how many times he almost stepped on my fingers.. :lol:

.. It was all good though.

He didn't have the guitar with all the stickers this time. THe only thing the guitar he had this time said in blue letters. warchild.ca.. But his shirt was something else. He wore this black t-shirt that said in faded white letters ROYALTY
HEROISM
AND THE
STREETS

I have no idea what that means.. Now about the show.. This was the best version of Superman's Dead I ever heard. They just really jammed at the end of the song for the longest.. I was also happy to hear BOY.. I really liked that song.. Future and Angels are still my favees live.. They just sound amazing. Clumsy also had a bit more keys in it then usually.. It sounded amazing with Raine singing it almost acapella before the keys come in. I am really liking the new arrangement of it.. He introdueced smile as a song for a man who always has that stupid smirk on his face. You just want to smack it off. You all know who he is.. People screamed out BUSH.. During the line that goes" I don't like you, or your Bullshit attitude or the company you keep" Raine adlibed RICE, CHENEY, POWEL.. I think I was the one of the few who caught that..

I thought it was amazing and fun to see them in a place that tiny.. I am so glad I went. This is definitely a memory for me.. I also got to talk to them a bit after the show..There also were a few people there I was glad to see.. Chantal was there. She looked absolutely stunning, and radiant. Motherhood defintely agrees with here. I spoke with here for a few minutes. She wasn't feel to good so left before Raine did..Shawn was also there. He chopped off all his hair. I didn't reconize him at first. I was standing there waiting to talk to Raine and this guy taps me on the shoulder to say hi. He said I should of known you would be here so I laughed. He told me that that Raine didn't know he was here so I turned to Raine and said Raine this is my blind date for the evening. WHen he realized who it was he was surprised. I thought it was Jamie at first cause that is how short he hair if now. He looked amazing though and it was good to see him. I haven't seen him since Matt Good in June.. He is with Simple Plan now. The other person I got to see was Jason.. He is a good friend of Steve's. He is actually the guy who got Steve to try out for OLP.. He is also American Hi Fi's drummer now..

all in all it was fun..

Amazing. The songs were very rocky, and catch and full of energy. I am so glad I made this trip. I know it was crazy, but so worth it for me.. I will never get an opportunity like this again...If you like Bush or Gavin you will like this stuff. I think you can here some songs on www.institutemusic.com . They also did a few Bush Songs.. They played a little more then an hour.. I took lots of photos so will put them up when I get them. I will post the songs later cause I don't have the list in front of me. The Roxy holds a few hundreed people.

Cool. I hope they come back around and play somewhere in the northwest. Nobody loves us here.

Just realized that Somewhere Out There wasn't on the LA setlist. :lol:

It's on that one from San Diego on R&S, though.

they are only doing a first leg promotional tour now that ends in NYC on the 30th. Here is an omen. I saw OLP/then Institute in LA.. In NYC Institute are playing the same place(bowery) the night before on the 30th. Oh yes..

here is the setlist for you..
animals, 7th wave, bulletproff skin, come on over( not a christina remake :lol:

-actually thought this song was really good), everything zen(bush song), boombox, wasteland, heat of your love, ambulence, people that we love(bush song), Machinehead.. OMG this girl pushed up front and was singing this at the top of her lungs badly I might add. When he did Glycerine I turned around and said do you mind I want ot hear Gavin not you..

encores
Glycerine
save the robots
Infromation Age( this song really rocked)

They are coming back so you might still get them..

NIKKI- They didn't do SOT, that is why it is not on the list..

I know, silly. :lol:

Guess you haven't heard the Edgefest bootleg... Raine forgot the lyrics to SOT. Plus, at the Drake, he had the lyrics on the ground.

Ben Folds played the best concert in the entire world. Which is a good thing, because we all had to stand in the rain for two hours beforehand because of technical difficulties that meant they couldn't let us in, or something. They almost cancelled the show apparently. It's stupid. But finally we got in and it was excellent. Except Rufus sucked.
