I went.  I went and it was good.  After nearly a decade of listening to regional act Caroline’s Spine, after nearly a decade of missed shows, and CD’s spun to death, Miami, OK was a place that brought me supreme joy last night.  And maybe it was just the joy brought with anticipation, but I dare say that show is in my top 3 concerts of all time, even though it was a smallish thing.

I was able to get right up in front.  The biggest disappointment is my lack of pictures.  I tried, but my phone did not cooperate.  But screw it.  Those memories will live on.  Probably the only show I would be more hyped about right now is if Our lady Peace came back through.  I picked up a CD, got a guitar pick (which was neat, because on the back of the pick, which you can’t see below, it actually had the band name stamped on it), and had it all, and my ticket (#1 mind you) signed.  Am I fanboy?  Sure, I’ll take that title on.  I’ve only ever bothered getting two other albums in my life signed.  One was trash, I was just young and standing in the wrong line, the other were guys I knew.  I just figure it exemplifies the importance they have for me.

I just missed the drummer.  It was late, people were getting cranky about leaving, and he was back up on the corner of stage, so we missed him.  BUT, apparently hope is not lost, because while the impression was that this was sort of a last hurrah tour, they are apparently putting out a new album in January.  I giggle in anticipation.  So last night was good.  I am happy.
