Arrived at the venue at 7:30 and the queue was a mile long so we went to the back of the line and waited for the doors to open, chatting to a few people including a girl whose boyfriend surprised her with tickets and she had no idea waht se was off to see.
Finally the doors open and to my disgrace they take our whole ticket! Now I know why I scan my tickets! I went straight to the merch table...Sorry couldn't get pics! But they have an old style grey girls shirt with just the frogstomp style writing on the front! (boys version too) A black girls shirt with the Young modern album cover design and dates on the back (boys version too), A black shirt with grey/white YM lines. and lots of Dappled City Flys stuff too.
My sister Kate and I made a bee line to the bar to get a drink!
So we went into the mosh pit, and waited until dappled City Fly came on.
Now that was a band I could have done with not seeing! Sounded like a flock of seagulls dying!
I am quite glad they had 2 big screens on either side of the stage, as it was quite hard to see over the 6 foot guys in the mosh pit! ( I was even in heels)
Silverchair's preshow music came on and I won't spoil it for others but not what I expected...You should have heard the crowd roar!!!
They started with Young Modern Station. I don't remember the exact set list and will probably miss a few songs. But they played quite alot of the new songs and TTB/SB which Daniel apoligised if he fucked up as they have never played it live. There was something about swans connecting and being manogamous but he was mumbling so I din't get all of it when he introduced it! This one got the crowd in participation mode too, which I was surprised about!
There were a few good moshing songs too. Freak, The Door and The Lever. I thought I was going to break my 7cm heels off my boots moshing so hard!
Daniel said to the audience there are so many good looking people here, but I can see one ugly person and he points around the crowd and then to paul, chris then walks over to Ben! Very funny!
anyway thats my bit! My memory is a bit fuzzy!
