omg no wayy



and there is the proof.  this week has been awesome.


...ok so it's not like i'm a super super freak when it comes to being fan of bands, but this week has been pretty freaking sweet.  i'll elaborate.  first, the acoustic set that rxb did while in CLEVELAND on august 5th finally came out and i already can't stop listening to it in my car.  it's insanely wonderful and i love it.  also, i had sent photos from the concert to each of the respective bands myspace accounts.  i wasn't really expecting an answer or anything of the sort.  just kind of hoping someone would look at it and appreciate my efforts.  WELL.  i was more than thrilled on saturday morning when i woke up and saw that RXBANDITS posted my photos, with a thank you, onto their myspace bulletin.  :D :D  needless to say i was thrilled.  how nice of them to share my measly photos with everyone.  haha it was pretty sweet of them.  so today i get a message from PORTUGAL. THE MAN saying that they appreciated my photos as well. 

wow.

the very best.


this week i got to see my favourite band, rx bandits, 
at my favourite venue in cleveland. the grog shop.
it was the best thing ever.  i got to stand in the front row this time, so i was able to get a lot more pictures than i usually do.  hooray.  they put on an amazing set [i also got one of the copies of the setlist!]  and even performed a new song from their upcoming cd.  ahh it makes me hope that they release the new material as soon as possible.  i know they haven't recorded it yet, but hopefully they do as soon as they get home :D

they even ended the set with the best song. decrescendo.  
ahh there is not a better song to end it with, in my opinion.

and! i also got my photo taken with joe troy.  it was his bday the night prior so it was great to be able to say hi and get a photo [the first i've ever had] with a member of the band.

also playing that night was portugal. the man


and maps & atlases.


both of which are also AMAZING.

oh, how i love live music.
