my 311 day expirence
so first off in the morning off 311 day, i ran into a girl who is roomates with the hive manager...whichi know both, the manager from personal incounter, and the roomate from him telling her about me and from myspace. anywho, she calls the hive for me and i got to talk to the hive manager for about 10 minutes...such a cool guy...
then waiting in line for wristbands the girl i went with forgot her ticket at the hotel room, so i asked peter raspler, who i know, to hook it up, so he does and later wehn we are at the hotel, PETER RASPLER calls her cell phone....woah
then during the show i talked with peter a whole bunch (he pulled me aside, knowing how big of a fan i am and asks for my opinion of the show (woah), and i talked to adam raspler, jim (tour manager, who i already know), ruff (tims guitar tech), pat (drum and bass tech), SA's MOM, who remembered me from our last meeting (that woman almost made me cry, she so sweet), fruity who is the soudnboard guy, Chads cousins, and the hive managers roomate, and nicks girlfreind too! shes hot!
i practically talked to everyone who works for 311. WOAH
and the hive managers roommate snuck our camera in and got soundcheck footage (six, and no control) i cant believe they sound checked six...wtf
okay now for the show itself...WOW, i mean song wise and surprise wise, 04 was way better but i couldnt believe This too shall pass...woah....down south...woah
the sound was amazing...i loved the fuckups during feels so good...sa's verse which i never heard, im actuely gonna listen to teh old recordings of that song see if teh verse is different...
but im gonna talk to peter and tell him what songs they shoulda played...maybe help out in the selection for next 311 day....
im suposed to be all over teh dvd, thats what peter told me, so look for me when it comes out..

Somebody had a beach ball that had "SALSA" written on it. It actually made its way on stage, but Tim kicked it off. I think that's a clever way to get your song request to the band...but the damn security keeps spiking it back into the crowd.TripleA wrote:forgot about salsaTripleA wrote:leaving babylon, tune in, old and space funk, guns are for pussies, the continuous life, firewater, loco, and Hostile Apostle

Yo gunther, I saw you in the pit, but I was in the seats on Tim's side. And I totally saw you at World of Wheels back in Jan, but by the time I realized it was you, I never saw you again. But definetely a bad ass show for sure! My picks for songs I would have loved to have heard: The Continuous Life, Color (which the sound checked, not sure why they didn't play it), DLMD, Firewater, Guns, How Do You Feel?, I'll Be Here Awhile, Loco, Next, Salsa, Still Dreaming, Time is Precious and Wake Your Mind Up.

heh my group was also in the seats on tims side. We were all on the bottom 2 rows pretty much right next to the stage. We had some pretty kickass seats. If anyone saw the bunch of dudes hanging out on the steps in chairs at the north entrance that was the Springfield crew.Offbeat_Dumb_Ass wrote:Yo gunther, I saw you in the pit, but I was in the seats on Tim's side.
