I'll be there!

NICE

Wow. Foo Fighters are coming to Pittsburgh at the end of September, and Incubus is coming at the end of August.

Three of my favorite bands, all within 3 months of each other (and Reign of Kindo earlier this year). This is insane.

Are you two over the awkward thing of that you won't go see each other because you met over the internet and the internet is for nerds?

What, because we were at the same place once but didn't see each other?

I guess that may have cracked it.

AMAZING

I didn't get to go. I had to work. I'm not too fussed, though. I'm not very into the new album.

I didn't even remember this was going down. ;-;

They played a bunch of older stuff, too, but yeah, it was mostly new stuff. Which is okay with me, because I absolutely love the new album. The sound was perfect, too. There was a 21+ pre-show-party in this courtyard and we got to hang out and drink beers before the show. And then the show started, and there was a 21+ area that was mostly vacant for the entire show, even though it had a spectacular view. They had crazy obscure beers, and even had one of my favorites on tap (Victory's Hop Devil), so I got just a little drunk and rocked the fuck out.
Standard bar prices, too, which was awesome.

I took a bunch of pics with my phone.

I couldn't zoom on my phone for some reason, which was kind of lame, but whatever.

The opening acts were also spectacular. I have to remember to check out O'Brother (think Thrice + Deftones) and Kay Kay & His Weathered Underground after I finish moving in to my new place.

That's a nice small little venue, i'm super ass jelly. Did they play the Tank?

No, but they played Red Hands, the Thief, Mustard Gas, the Church and the Dime, He Said He Had a Story, and a bunch of the good Color Spectrum stuff (black/red/orange/yellow/violet/white, like 2 from each).
