  • Well, the whole "i traveled a long way to see them!!" won't work. Believe me, I have tried it.

    Franz Ferdinand has a girl roadie.  When I saw them play a couple of weeks ago (kick-ass show, BTW), I just stared at her and thought, "OH MY GOD I WANT YOUR JOB."

    OK Go: I bet Jaded would make a great roadie. I bet she can carry heavy things, and you guys plug in your own stuff anyway!



    I CAN CARRY HEAVY THINGS! I REALLY CAN! And I can beat up all of those girls who throw themselves at you.

    Oh wait, wrong band.

    Anyhow, I'll be a goooooooooooood roadie. I promise.

    I figured traveling won't work. Maybe if I dress up as a cat and crawl past the bouncer . . .

    I'd be a huge cat, though.
  • You can pass for 18. WHen is your birthday? Do you have a friend who is 18 AND looks like you? IF so, I would take her ID along.
  • My birthday is August 6, so I just turned 17. By the time of the show I'll be 18 in 9 months.

    Haha, I could borrow my mom's ID, but she's 36. I don't think I can pass as a 36 year old.

    I have friends who are 18, but I don't look like any of them.
  • Oh, that's never good.
  • No it's not. All my friends who are 18 look really different from me. huh. Come to think of it I'm the only one who has dark hair. and brown eyes.

    WOW
  • just so's you guys know, the madison show at the annex is also 18+. you can only get in if your underage if you'r with a parent rolleyes.gif


    that's flipping retarded. 18+ shows suck
  • ahhh What the hell?!?!? Ok Go is making it very difficult for me to see them.
  • This sucks...I need to go to Baskin Robbins and find that creepy guy with the fake ids. I never thought I would have to do something like that.
  • yeah, basically madison sucks.

    last time i had to bring a parent to a show, the end was not good. i had to apologize to the redwalls, their dad, their manager, their sound engineer, the redwalls again, some other guy who works for the redwalls, one of the guys of this opening band, a couple guys of the colour... it was horrible. all because of the stupid parent.
  • I think you need to tell me this story. I am in love with the redwalls. I was at that show, high noon saloon? Yeah I was outside though...psh...I had no parent.

    aw, i thought madison was a quaint and lovely college town when i visited there twice to catch okgo. that was back in my little roadtripping phase. fun times i can no longer do.

    anyway, that's very interesting that you could get into an 18+ show with a parent. i don't think i've ever heard of that really. it's like the concert was rated R or something. children under the age of 18 not admitted without parent. blink.gif

    what did the parent do that you had to apologize?
  • aww, you guys were sitting outside?? i'm sorry!! that totally sucks.

    so...i guess i'll tell this story. it's incredibly embarassing though. so... the high noon saloon is a bar, right? so, my dad starts drinking. and he just keeps drinking. and he won't stop drinking. so, after the show, he's totally sloshed, his speech is slurring. and the guys are out mingling, talking with people. so, my dad goes over to their dad, and starts talking to him about who knows what. and the poor guy keeps trying to get away from him to go talk to the people he needs to talk to, but my dad just will not leave him alone. so he moves on to their sound engineer, and some other guy works for them. so i apologized to them, because he clearly wouldn't leave them alone. and then, i'm off buying a cd from the colour when i hear my dad yelling "andy! andy!! drew!! ANDREW!!!" so i go over there trying to shut him up. but he insisted on going up to every single member of the redwalls, yelling their names, interrupting their conversations, and introducing me & my sister. getting like, right up in their faces w/ his stanky beer breath. telling justin that he's in wisconsin, he should be drinking wisconsin beer, not that shit he was drinking up on stage (which was, in fact, a wisconsin beer rolleyes.gif ) and "i think it's just great that you guys are a band that both kids can love and older guys, and guys older than me. that's just fuckin' great." blah blah drunken speech, blah. telling them that my sister & i made a little fansite about them. whatever. and i keep trying to pull my dad away from them, saying stuff like "it's okay dad, i can talk to them myself. go away." anyways, after going to all the redwalls. i apologized to justin for my dad's horrible behavior, and was all, "it's okay" and he gave me a hug (the one GOOD thing that came from this) and then my dad was like, following justin around. the poor thing. so, i had to apologize to him again. and then i finally convince my dad to leave, and then we run into a couple guys from the colour outside. and he starts talking to them "oh! i'm glad to see you're drinkin' some wisconsin beer. not that shit the redwalls were drinking...." i'm like dad. shut up, let's go. good gosh.... horrible.

    one other good thing though was logan came up to me & my sister before we left, with his endearing little stutter & was all like "i-i just want to thank you guys. we-we we really appre-pre-ciate it"

    yeah. okay.
  • WOW! That is crazy. Did your dad go outside during all this alone? Because if so, I might have encountered him. A little awkward, I'm not gonna lie. and I LOVE Logan's stutter. It is sooo cute and amazing. I don't know what to do with myself.
  • wow, i'm sorry...how embarrassing! ohmy.gif
    ...at least you have an interesting story to tell... unsure.gif
  • Holy cow, if my dad did that I would be so embarrased.

    Logan is awesome. Everything about him is awesome.

    You guys should see some photos from their concert last night. Logan was looking really good. And he wasn't wearing a hat!

    I don't know what to do with myself, either.
  • There's a metro show?

    Wow, I'm behind things.

    Wow after reading your story, I'm almost positive I met your dad at the show. I was outside with juniormint and grizzley adams during the show (wow what a story, but it was one of the worst days of my life) and I think your dad came up to us and started calling us "rockstar super models" and he felt really bad that we couldn't get in, and brought us Redwalls pins from inside. He was really nice to us! Wow, such a small world!!!
