And, it seems with more popularity, their fans aren't QUITE as teenybopperish. :GASP: A lot more guys were there than the past M5 concerts we went to.

Oh, and I hate not being front row for them. :crying: We were soooo far.


I think you killed all the teenie-boppers.

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.

Yeah, Adam's ego has grown to astronomical sizes, it shows... but they're still a fantastic live band, regardless.

You can't really blame him, though. When you've got THAT many girls telling you you're the greatest guy in the world... it'd be tough to not believe it.

nikki I understand how you feel about not being front row for Maroon 5.. My friend is always front row for Interpol and she said she won;t settle for less. Just like I am always front row( GA) for OLP.. You get use to it you don;t want to be anywhere else.

this guy I met last week at a show said sitting 5th row seems far ause he always gets front row...

i pretty much get front row for all GA show i go to.. I liek watching bands play..

I am seeing Secret Mahicnes tomorrow and American Hi Fi on Thursday..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

i don't think his ego has grown, i think it was huge to begin with. they made the "this love" video before they had much success.

but really, when i saw them, i was like PUT YOUR SHIRT ON AND STOP WHAT YOURE DOING. lol
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

Nah, he seemed pretty nice when me and Melissa met him. That was right about the time they filmed "This Love". I think that video was... how it was... just so he could show off his model girlfriend. :lol:

Depends on which band is playing, but usually you can. I like the Melkweg, because they program lots of good bands and it's not too big, about 800 people maximum. Paradiso is a nice venue too by the way. Let me know if you want to know more or need help getting tickets (in case of a show that's likely to be sold out).
