The Concert

I feel so empty at the moment. With the concert in history, I almost feel disappointed. I seriously have a passion for that band I can't explain (after last night it has intensified) So, to sooth my "aching" heart and my boredom, I will post the events of yesterday.

Following school Forest, Mike, Cameron, and I all went to Forest's house. After hanging out for a while, we loaded the minivan (with an Ipod and Ibook) and we were off. The two hour drive was fine. We talked, listened to music, and took pictures. Then we stopped at subway and ate. After a two hour drive of talking, listening to music and taking picture, we stopped at subway to eat. After that, we shortly arrived in Iowa City. We got our tickets then stood, talked and took pictures while we waited for the doors to open. Iowa City is an awesome town; Bustling with a varied range of people. I enjoyed just watching the liveliness. After a while of waiting, we got in and grabbed our seats, sat and waited for the concert to start. When it did, Faun Fable come onto stage. As soon as she warmed up with the yodel I knew she was kick ass. She was awesome. She was absolutely fabulous! She is definitely a new favorite artist of mine. Then, another great band (Devotchka) played. Devothka were extremely fun to watch and listen too. Towards the end of Devothka's opening act, we got out of our seats and got to the front. Unfortunately, not soon enough, for we were right next to a group of 10 year old girls who seemed to think of Dresden Dolls was some sort of boy band. It was sickening, but seeing the dolls play overcame that. They were amazing on stage. Amanda Palmer is fucking awesome. Seeing her grimace and pound on those keys is so fun to watch. I really don't know how to explain it, but it was absolutely awesome. The lights were cool, the music was of course great, it was just so full of energy! Every single song they played sounded incredible. They played most of the songs on their album and also the cover song "Pierre" (a little tragicomic story song with a moral.) and a song by Bright Eyes and a song called "Winter coat". I loved it!

After the concert we took off. I was psyched...but sad. I really didn't want to leave. The ride home was about as enjoyable as the ride there. Except we were exhausted. It was around 1:00-1:30 when we got back and I was ready to hit the sack. Forest's mom took me home and after slipping into something more comfortable I hit the covers...and was out. I woke up this morning and has this...almost...empty feeling, like after Christmas when you just kind of think. "Wow, it's over, this sucks. Another fucking year."
I had so much fun and the withdrawal is hitting me like it does after any other really fun day(like after a dance or party.)
but anyways, Dresden Dolls were awesome and hopefully I get the chance to see them again.
and the guys took some pictures so you might be seeing them up on forums or something sooner or later.
Thank you my Friends...
Good Night
