Last Night's Festivities

Last night at the Ramkota Exhibit Hall several bands came to our quiant little town. These bands are known as; Sing It Loud, The Spill Canvas (our home-town heroes) and Motion City Soundtrack. And THEY ROCKED! Sing It Loud definitely brought stage presence to the empty warehouse, which became not-so-empty when the concert started. The Spill Canvas had the whole mosh rocking and Motion City Soundtrack was LOUD...and amazing. I walked out of there a happy girl, with a poster signed by four out of the five members of Sing It Loud (stupid drummer...Chris...couldn't you have just come out of the backstage area?!) pictures with three of them and a camera full of memories. Plus ringing ears and a nauseated stomach, but what kind of concert is it with out PAIN?!?

Its hard to type out a monologue about a concert, so I'll leave you with some pictures to help illustrate the night for you. Sorry, I didn't get any Motion City...but here's Sing It Loud and The Spill Canvas:

EDIT: pictures weren't going so well, so here's my video of No One Can Touch Us by Sing It Loud...if that works...

EDIT: I think I'll go with the pictures...


You can see in this picture the bassist of SIL (Nate) doing a nice jump in the air. Call me an amazing photographer...

The concert's got everyone...excited...

Nick Thomas may or may not be going into labor.

Kieren the lead guitarist of Sing It Loud

Well that's enough for now. If you know me, you'll probably see them all eventually...
