Veruca Salt/Local H/Fig Dish
We left around 6:45 p.m. Got there at 8:00p.m. We went in around 8:15. Walked
around the place and found a spot to stand. We were standing on the left side of stage,
against these wooden black boxes. Fig Dish was first to go on. There a guy dressed up in
a Bunny suit and he would come out and exchange their guitars. He danced around too.
It was funny. I never actually heard their music before but Fig Dish were pretty good.
About a half hour later Local H came on. They opened with "Hi-Fiving Mother Fucker",
last time we saw them they ended with that song. There were alot of people crowd
surfing. All the staff members that had moved up front were pushing and throwing the
crowd surfers back to where they came from. I saw one guy/girl go flying. The songs I
can remember them playing were: "Eddie Vedder", "Bag Of Hammers", "Sports Bar",
"Back In The Day", "Bound For The Floor", " I Saw What You Did", "Manifest Density",
"Nothing Special", they ended
with "Fritz's Corner". They also played a new song the only lyrics I remember are "Oh
Yeah!, All Right, oh yeah, all right". They ROCKED!!! I didn't take any pictures of them
this time, because my sister didn't want me to take 27 pictures of Local-H again. I would
have taken some pictures anyway, but then I would have to listen to her complain. We
really weren't in a good spot to take pictures. For 1 reason, the staff/security were
standing in the area in front of us. 2 reason we were on the side of the stage, looking at
peoples side. 
I
did plan on moving to the middle during Veruca Salt but when they came on more people
were moving over there and moshing and crowd surfing, which cause more staff/security
guys to move up front. 
Veruca Salt opened with "Straight". I don't remember the order of any of the other songs
and probably am gonna leave out some. But I'll give it a try. I know they played
"Benjamin", "With David Bowie", "Earthcrosser" (my fave), "Awesome", "Seether",
"Spiderman". I think they did "Don't Make Me Prove It", "Sound of the Bell", "One Last
Time", "Victrola", I know they did more off of "American Thighs", not sure which songs
though. They ended with "Volcano Girls" and then they came back out couple minutes
later and played "Shutterbug". During Seether that guy in the bunny suit sang on one part.
Scott and Joe were watching VS set, in the area in front of us. I think Gabe was there
too.
During one of the songs, Louise got on Joe's shoulders and were walking around in the
area in front of us. I took a picture but I couldn't use the flash so it didn't come out. :( I
couldn't use the flash because earlier in their set, I was on picture 18 and when I snapped
the picture I didn't see the guy that was looking my way and he came over and I handed
him my camera.
I had a feeling I
would get caught cause of where we were. It was no big deal. The next song the guy that
took it away came over to me and gave my camera back(it was only a disposable anyway)
and said that I could take picture but with out the flash. I knew the picture would not
come out that great with out the flash. Oh yeah some guy that was standing behind me
was holding up homemade sign that caused Scott to come and stand in front of us and
read it. I don't know what it said though. He thought it was funny.
After the show we
went out a side door. We saw a tour bus and it had a Local H sticker on it. We thought
why would they put their stickers on their bus, this can't be theirs. We waited there
awhile. Then we split into 2's and one group walked around front to the other bus and we
stayed at this one. I'm pretty sure that was Local H's bus. I walked around out front cause
they were calling us.
They said that Stacy and Steve
were just there. When I got down there they had gone on the bus. I met Stacy when he
used to drum for Letters To Cleo (love them) he was nice. The roadies were loading up a
Rider truck with VS's equipment. Everyone that was waiting was behind the wooden
barriers. Nina came out first, she greeted her fans and signed stuff. We were kind of at
the end of line or what ever. She came over to us. She signed our ticket stubs. I brought
along my cover for "American Thigh" (just cause it white) and she signed that. Jen asked if she
could have a picture with her and I took the picture. Some guy showed her a "Blow It
Out Your Ass..." record. And she was amazed by it and goes "Wow, I never seen one of
these before" and I think she signed it. About 5-10 minutes later Louise came out. She
greeted and signed stuff for people. She also signed my cd cover. And Jen told her that
she loves how she screams and she came here only to hear her scream. and Louise goes
really wow.. On Jen's ticket stub she wrote " I came and I Screamed" and signed it. Then
she said that should be a song "I came and I screamed". Some guy had another home
made sign and I think she asked if she could have and she said she loves those things. I'm
not sure what it said though. Jen asked if she
could take a picture with her. So I took a picture. We thanked them. I only had 2
pictures left after the show. So I didn't get in any of the pictures.
They were both really cool and nice. I was facing the other way and Jen kept saying "hey
there's Joe, Amy there's Joe" everytime she said his name he looked over. I turned
around and said hi and asked if he would sign an old set list from March that I brought
with me. he said that they would be back in October. Jen asked him if Scott was still
around. He told us he was in a bar. We thanked him and left. I didn't realize how late it
was. When we got back in MA it was 3:30 a.m. I got home at 4:00 a.m. The show
ROCKED!!!!
