goings on at the concert

hey. well, we arrived at i. c. light amphitheater in pittsburgh, pennsylvania half an hour before it started (at 7:30pm). thank goodness we already had our tickets! we chortled at the punks who bought theirs when they got there. anyway, we were kind of out of place with Casey in her old navy and i in army green khakis (not the preppy kind, but still. khakis?!).we realized this may be a crazy concert when the guy taking the tickets made us lift our shirts a bit to see if we had any drugs in there. the first act was pretty crappy, black eyed peas. they sucked. lit was better. the lead singer was pretty cute. there were these hugely boring waits between acts, and it was 9:30 by the time no doubt came on. oh, and when they did! well, we should mention that before no doubt came on we felt hugely out of place. we didnt feel the need to, uh, for lack of better words "mosh" with the crowd. o well. we actually went into the "moshers" before the band we came to see came out. ahh. first tony kanal, then tom dumont and adrian young! and then GWEN!!! :D:D:D it was SO sweet, we were like 10 feet away from her! the mosh pit area was sweet because of all the bouncing goin' on, but it smelled strongly of cigarettes. i was convinced both of us would be hooked on nicotine by the time we left. but they were AWESOME. that was pretty much where we were the whole time, except when i went to the bathroom and sam went to get some no doubt merchandise. i didn't have much money so i didn't get anything. yeah, i got a poster, a couple tees and their new cd return to saturn. im pathetic. and OH!!! there was THE CUTEST guy standing right next to me and casey! *sam drools on the keyboard* whew! what a babe. after casey came back from the restroom, and i finished giving my money away, we sat down and listened to gwen's unique voice and chilled. i was so psyched when we were in the crowd that the band was playing some of their stuff off of tragic kingdom. that was the only time i was really into the moshing. sorry...casey? i think our readers are going to get bored if this goes on much longer. so, like...
