Blink 182 - 07/31/09

The All-American Rejects opened for Blink for most of their tour. Them and Fall Out Boy (*yawn*). All I have to say about the Rejects is they weren't Weezer. I wanted Weezer to open for Blink, but noooooooooooooo... Weezer only plays HUGE venues like Toronto and LA.

Jerks. *sticks out tongue*

"Please just don't play with me / My paper-heart will bleed."


OMG! It's Mark Hoppus! askjfa;sdfj!

I am a creeper... I feel ashamed.


And now, for the main attraction... BLINK 182!

During the entire show, there was great camaraderie between the three boys (particularly between Mark and Travis. I found that Tom, being the snarky dude that he is, seemed petulant and insufferable at times).


The Blink 182 concert was as hyped-up as any "reunion" tour concert is expected, and I gotta say that the hype was completely justified. They are great showmen and know how to kiss Canadian ass! haha! I'm glad they paid us a visit and am saddened that they were *together* only for this short tour. Like Tom said, "We stayed together for the kids. You kids!"



Tom is quite the scandalous fella, proclaiming that Canada should be fighting in Iraq (because we're natural hunters), instead of the US and that Mark is not the best bass player in the world. "I'm pretty sure there's this guy in Africa who can kick your ass in bass, man."

Mark was fun and interacted with the crowd. He kept praising the other two Blink members, ("Give a round of applause to Travis, the best drummer in the world!" and "Give a hand to Tom, the best guitarist...", to which Tom added "in the world! No, universe!") and seemed to enjoy himself.



Travis' drum solo was fan-fucking-tastic! My gosh! They strapped him to his chair, lifted his drum stand and rotated it in mid-air. He's a sick drummer.


I really do adore drummers, though I have always had a soft-spot for Mark. He's so delectable! yummy! hehe!

Wow.

My mind's really weird. I'll think one thing one minute, and the next it's as if there's a total stranger wandering around in my brain. I've heard we're all a bit like that. Weird, non? That's why I've decided to keep this blog. We're all weird. So if you can't shut your brain off at night, or you're just as confused by yourself as I am by me (if that makes any sense!), I welcome you to read on and tell me off, agree with me, whatevs. CIAO!

Perspective on my emotional hide and seek.

Most years we quietly celebrate Jenn's birthday; it's just us seven, we have some dinner, and then we go home. For her birthday this year, she asked one of her fellow nurses, Milly, to read our handwriting and interpret our personalities. Milly's interpretation of me was not that far off-base; she inferred that I'm reserved, prideful, loyal, hard-working, stubborn, and creative --- but she also told me that I can come off as "cold". Now, it's interesting to me that what stuck with me most is the fact she called me cold. Not the fact she correctly guessed that I like to feel people out before baring my thoughts to them. Not the fact she told me I'm creative, but am wasting my talents. Nope. What affected me most about her reading is that I can come off as cold to certain people. I've been called so many things in my life (haven't we all?), but the things I've been called in the past have always had a more... well, a positive spin. I...
