recently i had the fabulous oppurtunity to go to the snow patrol concert, i love them ! if u are in the market for a cd that is good like the whole cd is good go out and get their album called eyes open u will love it. so i took a date with me it was at the mckay events center in orem which kinda sucked cause that meant it would be a dry concert. i had to smuggle some juice in if u know what i mean. last time i went to the mckay events center i got busted for sneakin in some vodka in a water bottle and i thought i was going down cause the police were surrounding me and i looked up to see where the the friend was that i came with and all i could see was the back of her head scurring off like a mouse, for a minute i thought she was on fire. i was pissed cause i wanted to see the concert it was damien rice and i thought they werent going to let me in but they were actually cool they just made me throw the shit out and i was on my way. so this time at the concert i decided to be a lil smarter and not take a purse just hide some flasks on my body, i hate goin to a concert with no alcohol. it was a pretty good crowd we got the general admission on the floor and had some pretty good seats. i had to swig some of the alcohol in the bathroom. i love to people watch and going to concerts are one of the best places for it. we sat down and immediately i noticed this man who looked poss jewish and was sitting at the concert all alone. he sat there with his mouth wide open for the majority of the time and had a smile on his face like someone had shoved a hanger in is mouth, i couldnt take my eyes off of him who would go to a conert by themself? i would if it was a madonna concert and i had front row seat. the man was also clutching a jacket like it was filled with a million dollars in it. i kept lookin up at him thinking there has got to be someone coming to sit by him. i finally told my friend i was watching him and for her to take a gander then she couldnt take her eyes off him. not only did that guy have my attention but there was a lame couple sitiing beside me that were holding hands, they looked like if they were in a highschool yearbook they would have been nominated for lamest or nerdiest couple. the male looked like an albino with acne and the female had a pizza face also and some overalls that i didnt know people even wore anymore(thanks mel). it wasnt bad enought that the chick had a pizza face but she kept pickin at it then investigating it on her fingers then flicking it off. i was sick. the person right in front of me had a blouse on that showed part of her back that had bacne on it too!!! then there was this couple kind of in front of me to the right side that couldnt keep their hands off of eachother....it must of been zit night at the concert cuz the girl in the couple had a pimple face too but her boy toy didnt seem to care cuz he was kissing i think each and everyone of her pimples. me and my friend had gads o fun talking about all these goofs around us. first we would look at lonely jewish boy then to acne overall couple then to bacne girl then to the horny couple then start all over again, it kept us busy but i still wish i had a beer to really enjoy what i was watching. i think the jewish boy was the most interesting he kept looking around in amazement kinda talking to himself. when the concert finally started the opening band was plain white tees and they were pretty good they only played 3 songs due to the singer being sick. finally snow patrol came on they were sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good the lead singer had a lot of flair to him and his voice is so powerful and it sounded so strong even in the small venue...during the concert the jewish boy was singing every song and clapping out of beat, the acne overall girl was plugging her ears? and the horny toad couple had their arms around eachother rubbing eachothers bags in quick circular motions i wanted to tell them to get a flipping room and order a vat o noxema while they were at it....since i was standing behind them i had to keep bobbin my head from side to side to see the lead singer. all in all i had a great time BUT the group didnt sing my most favorite song and i wanted to cry. the song is called.....YOU COULD BE HAPPY"You Could Be Happy"You could be happy and I won't knowBut you weren't happy the day I watched you goAnd all the things that I wished I had not saidAre played in loops 'till it's madness in my headIs it too late to remind you how we wereBut not our last days of silence, screaming, blurMost of what I remember makes me sureI should have stopped you from walking out the doorYou could be happy, I hope you areYou made me happier than I'd been by farSomehow everything I own smells of youAnd for the tiniest moment it's all not trueDo the things that you always wanted toWithout me there to hold you back, don't think, just doMore than anything I want to see you, girlTake a glorious bite out of the whole world.....
