after the last midtown show.

I got an email, about 4 months ago from Hi-Fi, Brisbane. You know, the regular updates about who's going to play, ticketing bladiblabla. And i usually never open them, cuz ..i dont know. I just don't.

But i opened this one.

What did i find?

ANBERLIN.

What else did i find?

THE ACADEMY IS.

ON THE SAME DAY.

I bought my tickets the day after and have been looking forward to the day ever since.



I went,i saw, i had the best fucking time ever.

Who? The Academy Is + Where Wolves were Anberlin's opening acts.
Where? Brisbane. Since i live in the Coast now, i took a train about 4 hours before the gates opened. Waited for like.. 2 and a half hours for the gates to be opened.

Good lord, the wait was painful. I was so nervous! IDK why. The thought of seeing Anberlin and TAI excited/freaked/OMGOMGOMGOMG`ed me to the highest level.

Where Wolves performed first. I didn't know that A Year To Remember changed their name to Where Wolves. And that they were from Brisbane. Really swell guys. Played an awesome awesome set. I recognized some songs from their ` a year to remember ` days. awesome awesome live performance. jared's the cutest drummer ever. After the show, i met Bryce and he was super cool.

Up next..........

William pointed at me !#!@$%^& I was SO CLOSE TO HIM. I managed to grab his leg and he smiled *dies dies dies dies DIES! I have so many videos of him looking DIRECTLY at my camera, fuck okay. Seriously.

He pulled Lazzara-stunts. You know, the mic swinging and throwing the mic stand around. Super enjoyable i swear. He's so talented. Sisky was AWESOME, after being sick for so long. He managed to come out and play an awesome fuckin show. TAI was...awesome.

They were SO energetic and AMAZING live. I swear it was like a dream come fucking true. I managed to record videos for TL,Pickles & Zy :)

When they finished performing i felt..so content it was insanee. I made a couple of new friends too,haha. People standing next to me who tried saving me from this insanely smelly OLD PERSON. Ick.

Anberlin was next.

They came out with a bang. A big big BANG. First song was The Resistance.
The moshing started la. I was squished TO THE DEATH ( hehe naz).

I could barely move or breathe for that matter, but then people started forming circles to mosh and i got pushed into it.So..yeah OKAY. The end results ; a huge ass bruise on my face from a crowd surfer who kicked me in the face and ripped off all my earrings on my right ear. Bruises on my arms and legs.

So.fucking.worth.it.

Anberlin's Setlist -
  • the resistance
  • whisper & a clamor
  • disappear
  • breaking
  • adelaide
  • daylate

I hate thinking that these are games.


You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.

Even your friends can spend 5 minutes without avoiding the legitimate question of " how are you,really". You obviously can't. Don't ask if you don't respond.

If you thought it was funny, it wasn't. It was stupidity that looked like jealousy of something SO FAR AWAY.

I don't like the switching of roles,either.

Now i'm going to go an hour and a half away, to put myself in another awkward situation. Fuck me seriously.



It's my fault for putting you on a pedestal. The difference - what i thought was very calming, has now become a blurry image i can't even make out anymore.Now you're just like everyone else.

I hate.
