“I hope you had the time of your life…

OR: The post where I talk about my Green Day concert.

IT FREAKING RULED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

We were in the 2nd floor section, so we were far away, and we were on the side of the stage, but our seats were still pretty good. We got there & this guy was in one of our seats, so that sucked. We just moved down a seat & I freaked out everytime someone came in. (There wasn’t an usher person standing at the door when we came in, so we didn’t go tell anyone anything.) After the show started, a lady came over to check our tickets & she made the other guy leave, so we got our seats. Rock on! :)

Jimmy Eat World came on, and they were whatever. I just don’t care about them. lol. I knew more songs than I thought I did, but still - whatever.

Then they did the stage stuff, and a drunk bunny came on stage & tried to do the YMCA and stuff. I believe it was a band member, but which band member it is, who knows. It was hilarious.

THEN THE BAND CAME OUT!!! I sat there in awe for like THREE SONGS. I’m like… “Hi, I’m in the same room as Green Day. How is that even possible?? OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!” lol :) They started w/ American Idiot, then they did Jesus of Suburbia, and Holiday, and Are We The Waiting, but I don’t think it was after Holiday… hrm.. (I should’ve brought paper/pen to write it down!). Then they played Longview, and that’s kinda when I woke up. LOL :) They played Basket Case and some more songs.. St Jimmy, umm.. When September Ends… uh.. other songs. That I don’t remember. lol. IT RULED!! They played Minority, and King For a Day, which they turned into Shout & Stand By Me, then went back to finish King for a Day. They did the Operation Ivy cover on 1039, where they pulled members from the audience out. the bass player kicked ass, and the drummer was cool - tre showed him what to do for the song & he started playing his own thing & tre whacked him upside the head. lol Billie Joe pulled some kid out of the audience to play his guitar, and was like “how long have you been playing?! 7 years?? how old are you? 18? have you ever gotten laid?” and i guess the kid said no.. cuz billie joe’s like “well you’re getting laid tonight! get your ass up here!!” lol the kid rocked the guitar, too. billie joe ended up letting him keep the freaking guitar. lol HOW COOL IS THAT?!?!?!? they ended the first set with Minority, then came back out to do Maria, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, We are the Champions, and Time of Your Life.

Is it sad that I almost started crying during Time of Your Life?? Wow, I’m tearing up just typing this out. lol. I never thought I’d ever get to see Green Day. they were all popular and stuff, and when they came to town I couldn’t go (no money for tickets, no way to get there, no one to go with ) any of the times, and then they sorta dropped off the face of the planet…and if they ever came to dallas, I never knew it. now they’re huge again & I FREAKING GOT TO GO!!! :)

man, it was awesome.
can i do it again? :)
