So, I'm here at work and some lady comes up with her son. While she's searching for her ID, her son-probably around 6 years old- promptly pointed to my Fall Out Boy(from the simpson's) shirt and proclaimed "I want to be Fall Out Boy when I grow up!"
Fantastic. My childhood dreams were much less interesting; I just wanted to be rich.

New York eyes, Chicago thighs
Fresh year, fresh music.
The same old touch with a new blood rush.
They'll never understand how much a small line in one song means to us.
Crowds are won and lost and won again, but our hearts beat for the diehards

Da Beeearrss
I don't even really like football.
It's amazing and kind of silly how a meaningless game makes me feel homesick.
Silly how we socialize ourselves to support a group of people in tight pants because they supposedly represent your state-even though half of them are only there because they've been traded from a team on the other side of the country.
And yet, as I watch from 1.500 miles away, I'll call my grandmother and old high school chums and yell out "Da Bears!" when appropriate.
Afterall, it's only a game. Right?

...
Where would I go to, even if I could go home?
Homesick for a place that doesn't exist anymore.
Hoping my memories don't dilapidate with the reality.

Run-on Post! Paragraphs are for the weak.
FOE With TEN, FOB and NFG!
First of all, nothing enhances the concert experience than making fun of little skinny scene girls for 6 hours in the biting cold with kids you just met. Second, Sunshine Theater's security can kiss my frozen behind. And Pete's. And anyone involved for that matter. Anyway, the concert was awesome. Permanent Me was adorable-catchy music, cute boys. The Early November-the same. New Found Glory rocked the house as always. Jordan's hair was the "highlight"-pun intended- of their set. I have a theory. He got bored and had a supply of bleach pens. Fall Out Boy... Say what you want about them being 'poppunk' or 'emo', those kids put on a fucking rock n' roll show! I'm talking like "arrghh!" rock n' roll! Complete with crowd sing alongs, surfers, circle pits and a fight. Yes. A fight. The boys were wearing their 'mismatched' names shirts. Joe=Andy, Pete=Joe, Andy=Patrick,Patrick=Pete. Fun times. They seemed so much more energetic than I have ever seen them. Pete seemed happy to be on tour. The boy had glitter on his fuzzy jacket. How he can get away with being straight, I'll never know. They played-not in order and missing a few: Tell that mick Baby Grand theft autumn Thriller-rocking new song! Arms race Dance Sugar XO Champagne Growing up (!) Saturday Saturday was the scene of the fight. Pete invited fans to come up on stage during Saturday. Charlie was ok with this. He helped! Sunshine's security didn't seem pleased. probably missed something, but a sunshine security guy threw some punches at Charlie. Charlie punched back. They ended up on the floor, Pete jumped in-threw some punches of his own. AWESOME. Pete said "nobody fucks with Fall Out Boy's friends!". The crowd agreed. I just want to say something. If Fall Out Boy's security and Fall Out Boy themselves believe they are safe stage diving-then they probably are. Some-and by some, I mean sunshine's security- guys need to get that little cocky stick out of their asses. Pete has done this many times and he has survived. Your attitude was not needed. After most the stage was cleared, Erin and I saw Andy trying to get to the guy as well. LOL. We screamed out "Get him Andy!" Seriously. Unleash some angry vegan on that guy's ass, and he'll never get cocky again. In closing-the concert was awesome, Fall Out Boy rocked my fucking socks off, and Sunshine's security sucks. :D More highlights: New Found Glory walked right past the line of kids to get pizza and right past us back onto the bus. Nobody said anything! lol Erin and I were like "Was that New Found Glory? Getting pizza?" And nobody yelled their names or anything. It surprised me. One more: Some girl asked Patrick if she could have his hat, Pete said 'probably not', so she gave Patrick her hat. He put it on backward over his hat and it looked adorable. :)
