best.concert.ever!

well, it almost tied for best concert ever... the polyphonic spree still has first place. but ok go was pretty damn close.

* confetti guns galore!
* audience participation {we were right in the very front and damian came over to us and let the guy next to me strum his guitar during a song}
* laser guitars {seriously, laser beams shooting out of the ends of their guitars, which were also lined with muppet-type shaggy hair, l.e.d. lights, and scrolling l.e.d. letters}
* lots of interacting with the audience, taking their cameras and taking photos on stage for people, having conversations with us, and damian climbing into the midst of us multiple times.
* did i mention confetti guns? there were LOTS of confetti sprays throughout - so magical {and afterward the teenagers had confetti fights and made confetti angels}.
* enough swearing to warm your heart {sigh...}.
* an accapella performance of "what to do" with handbells.
it was truly one of the most amazing concerts i've ever been to. ok go knows how to put on a great show.

also, the fillmore is an amazing venue - they give away free apples, i've never stood further than a few people from the stage, i've seen up jenny lewis's skirt there, and they have artists create posters for each concert. we've collected some good ones over the years and i can't wait till we have our new home where we can have a concert poster wall.
oh how we'll miss you the fillmore!

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's

.408 CheyTac Fredo Viola Aug 29, 10:51 AM This is a real bummer to me. I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op
