I've had the best fucking past couple of days and I've been in the best fucking mood.
Sunday was Scream In The Field 2004. I don't think I've ever had so much fun at a local show. Shawn, Shaun, Scott and I went down there in Shaun's car. I saw a bunch of faces I hadn't seen in a while, like Brian from None Too Soon and Noel. Saw Sarah and met her friend Ashley again. Alex came and we hung out. There were a couple of crappy bands and a couple of good ones. Desoto Jones was great. Templeton went last. And for whatever reason, I think this was their best show I've ever seen them put on, and it was an outdoor one too. The band put on a great show, the crowd was way into it and moshed, Bob screamed, and everyone threw frisbees at the band. I got real into it and moshed shoeless and took off my shirt and screamed "NO SHIRT NO SHOES JUST MOSH" and told a bunch of random kids "I WANT YOU TO GO IN THERE AND DESTROY THE FUCKING WORLD" and threw them in the little pop-punk pit. I have no idea where all that energy and excitement came from and I've never done that before, but I had a great time. Then the after-show clean up was just as fun, with Justin and Shaun wrestling eachother and Shaun hitting Justin with a street sign.
Yesterday, I hung out with Shaun, Shawn, and Pat. We went to Taco Bell, then to the mall to get more food, saw Sarah's friend Ashley again, and we drove by my old high school and saw a bunch of picketers. So I drove around and asked them "What's all the hubbub?" Pat hid his face while I screamed in support of the teachers and chanted "MONEY! MONEY! MONEY! MONEY!" and drove around them. Pat was like "That's my ceramics teacher?" and I screamed "THAT'S PAT MURPHY'S WHAT TEACHER?!" and he put a shirt over his head. Then we, minus Shawn, went to the Cinnaminson carnival. We didn't spend any money but had fun and bumped into a bunch of people. I finally formally met Ean. Then me and Shaun went to Shawn's house and I tore them up in Simpson's Monopoly, just like I said I would. Cheezer flipped out and was going to kill me. Shaun refused to drive me home so I slept on Shawn's couch while the cats stared at me and freaked me out.
Woke up today and Shaun took me home. I ate and then took a half hour nap that ended up being two hours. I got up, got changed, and went to Alex's and played N64 with him until we had to pick up Shaina. So we did that and went to the speedline station and went to Philly for BRAID. We got to the Troc right after Orange Island finished, which was fine becuase I don't really like them. I bought a Braid T-shirt. Murder By Death was next, and I think they may have actually been my favorite of the night. That last song was breathtaking. Minus The Bear was next, and they were good. Braid was last, of course, and were GREAT. I wish I knew more of their songs and their lyrics so I could have felt more of a part of it, but oh well. Great great band, I'm happy I got to see them. Sarah and Ashley were there too and I talked to them for a bit, but it was awkward because Shaina hates them or something, so I had to keep going back and forth. Then after Murder By Death I totally lost them until after the show. Oh yeah, I saw Allee too. Afterwards I went to Wawa and got an awesome chicken sandwhich. Then we took the train back, and now I'm back home.
Tomorrow's going to be good too. COMICS AND SHINING FORCE. Yeah, I'm a nerd, and it's fucking awesome.
I hope this good mood lasts forever.
