lol Ok I went three hours on a bus from school to my friend's then he drove us down to the show at Roseland then we drove three hours back to campus...

Ridiculous shit.

As for the show...

Moneen, hadn't heard much of them prior to the show. I tried to get my hands on some songs, so I'd have an idea, but couldn't really find any. Nonetheless they had some die-hard fans there, which impressed me because I'm used to being the person there at the beginning of a show cheering on the band that opens. They honestly were fairly impressive especially given the amount of people there, Roseland is a fairly big venue. I'm definetly going to keep trying to find some stuff by them because their live show was really good.

Taking Back Sunday... Before I begin...

I'm not one of these kids that comes out and hates the little teenage girls that go to shows. They have a right to be there just like everybody else and as long as they like the band and support them, they're fine in my book...

But damnit, if you're going to be in the crowd and by the front, learn how to hold your own. TBS always has a rowdy crowd and it was unreal how they were reacting... It was ridiculous...

Nonetheless TBS was great once again. Not the best I've seen them, but not the worst. Great energy, great presence... Even though I think Adam was a little messed up lol. I never seen him drop the mic THAT much.

And although I like the new TBS songs, they could've dropped one of the 3(I think it was three) they played and added Blue Channel in... But they did play the cover of Message In A Bottle, which I love, and also Your Own Disaster so that more then made up for it.

Saves The Day impressed me alot. Like at the previous shows alot of people left, but nonetheless there were still alot of people there for Saves The Day and that made it even more enjoyable. Their set was filled with alot of Stay What You Are and a few old song and a few new songs... I'm not a fan of the new album, but hearing them live I might have to give the album another listen.

Plus it was nice having them headline because they deserve it for having been around so long. Also it worked nice because TBS brought the crowd level up so STD was a nice follow-up because it was a nice chill finish.

Out of 5. I give the show a 3.5; the venue was the biggest problem, too many people. Plus as I said people need to know their limitations whether they're male or female... Don't go into the crowd if you can't handle it

yeah, shows in huge venues suck, i like the ones where only 700 people can fit
