No amount of words or pictures can adequately sum up the awesome-ness of this weekend. NOTHING will ever compare to this, or even come close. This was THE best weekend of my life. I finally got to see the band I've been dying to see for 8 years, AFI. We've had tickets for months, and we waited outside for 4 1/2 hours, and it.was.amazing.


Waiting outside for 4 1/2 hours!

The Gallows....

Pull the top down, use your knees to drive.
I'll make it worth your while just let me taste the sky.



You pressed your mouth on mine and fed me a star.
Then said we can never truly know who we are.

I needed this night, so badly. Between all this shit my so-called friends have put me through, the shit of my classes, my grandpa passing away.... Finally there was a release for me. My roommate needed it, too. We had a chance to let everything go. Jump. Sing. Scream. Mosh pits are pretty painful places, if you've been in one, you'll know what I mean. They get pretty violent. But, we needed it. It was kind of a meditation for us. Now life seems to be a little more in place again. Stupid, I know, to get perspective from a concert, but hey, that's just me. These guys are absolutely amazing, and one of my biggest inspirations in life; they keep me going, and I finally got to see them.
