      So i saw them in chicago last night and it was quite an adventure let me just tell you. so i went with my sister and we drove all the way down from milwaukee. We got there early and got good spots in front right against the baracaid. Against All Authority was pretty good. Streetlight manifesto was fucking amazing as usual. And then less than jake came out. Their first 3 songs were amazing but then during the 4th song my sister started leaning over all weird and i didn't know what she was doing but then i realized that she has passed out. it was really scary. i was holding her up and slapping her and she wasn't responding even though her eyes were open. The security guards pulled us out. we went outside and then she passed out again. the medical people were being really mean about it. they kept saying what did you take? and they didn't believe that she hadn't taken anything. They kept rolling their eyes and asking what she took. they were gonna make us leave until i broke down crying and they let us standin the back. i cried for the rest of less than jakes set (while trying to sing along at the same time). partly because what just happened was really scaring and partly beacuse we lost our good spots and now i could hardly see cuz i'm short. but when reel big fish came out everything was ok. i didn't mind standing in the back because i could jump around and dance and skank which you can't do in the front cuz its too crowded (even though i'd still prefer the front). Despite all that happened i think this one one of the best rbf shows i've seen in terms of their performance. everthing was perfect. they had a shit load of witty banter, they played all the right songs, and they just had the best energy and vibe about them. After the show we talked to Aaron. he recognized me right away just from talking to him before and from myspace. we told him what happned and he gave us a hug and them we took lots of pictures on my phone. He kept saying "wait you need one more". now if only i knew how to get those pictures onto the computer. We talked with him for a while then drove home. it was most certainly a memorable night.

      DAMN!!! I WANT A HUG FROM ARRON!!!

      **sobs bitterly**

      you canget your photos on your phone one of two ways

      1. I have sprint so you can up load them to the internet and then save em.

      2. If your phone takes micro sd cards, then send the photos to the micro sd card and then take the card to the computer.

      still….I am envious….

      well i have US cellular and i'm pretty sure the only way to get pictures off my phone is to send them to email through a text messege but i think you have to pay like 5 bucks a month to do that.
      i have some other pictures with rbf from earlier this summer. i'll try to post those on here sometime.

      Haha, if that's true…. awesome!

      I haven't seen RBF in a while, I should have gone when they were playing small venues outside of the main towns they useally play. I just hate that they don't play the House of Blues in Chicago anymore.
