After suffering all day in school...it was finally time for the concert. So Izzy and myself gathered up our pounds of shit, made our way to my dad's car and prepared for our "long car ride" Five minutes later we pulled into the Northern Lights parking lot. Because my dad knew the man that owned Northern Lights, we got to be let in early. So here me, Izzy and my dad went parading in front of all the people who were standing in line ( we did recieve a few bitchey comments as were we walking into the building from these two girls who were in the front of the line....hehe classic moment!) But, we were in. Tinfed was in the middle of their soundcheck when we got in. We saw Ryan and Jonny from Spineshank walking around. We actually got to talk to Jonny before the show when we were buying our merchandise. He was really calm and quiet. He said that they had just flown in like on hour ago and that he was still asleep. I asked him if he was going to be comming out after the show and he said that he definitely would. He was really sweet. Once they started letting people in, me and Izzy got our places up front in between where Ryan and Jay would be. The concert started at 8:00 sharp. Tinfed was the first to come on. The lead singer, Rey Osburn was really cute. They played for a half an hour, I thought they were pretty good! Not much stage presence I do have to admit....but...they were still good. After they were done with their set, Alien Ant Farm came on. They were really kool. Their bassist was totally on crack...lol. but, we got to rub the lead singer and lots of minor fun things happened. Then after Alien Ant Farm, Spineshannk came on and they were wicked awsome. After the show we talked to Jonny again and he said that he thought they sucked that night, but me and Izzy told him that they didn't and that we thought they did really good. I think Jonny's voice was really sore. But he looked at us and sang to us during the show....we got to rub him too (take note....that's the second person we got to rub....lets keep a score here...hehe)! Ahhhh...during Spineshank though man.....we were soooooo crushed (especially Izzy! *sniffle*) We could barely breath. We got crushed by dozens of crowd surfers one after another....but it was all in good fun of course. We all looked like little hungry birds...everyone in the pit.....no one could move so they (security guards) had to feed us water when we needed it...hehe. When they were setting up for Spineshank we saw Paige on the side stage smoking and what not. Izzy and I were mezmerized...hehe. Then it was time for Orgy!!! Orgy came on at like.....well...I don't know what time it was exactly...but they came on sometime. Here's the set list from what I can remember:

These first 6 songs, I know are in order.
-Vapor Transmission (mixed with their own jam session...it was kool)
-Suckerface
-Dissention
-Bobby's Drum solo
-Chasing Sirens
-107
and then the rest of these they played...but I have no clue in which order except for that Blue Monday was last.
-Opticon
-Where's Gerrold
-Ficton
-Gender(the lead singer of Alien Ant Farm, Dryden Mitchell came out in the beginning and did a really funny dance and Paige was laughing...it was cute:))
-Stitches
-Blue Monday(Jay came down once again into the pit and we got to rub him again (#3) and at the end, Jonny came out and sang the end if the song with Ryan and with Jay in their mics)

Once the again, we got crushed my crowd surfers....but we still had fun! Ryan and Jay saw us a few times. Jay sang to us a few times again. In the beginning of their set, Jay saw Izzy getting crushed and he was like "How about trying to move so she can breath?"..hehe Super Jay to the rescue!! uhhh...what else happened. Oh Ryan handed me his pick during the show....it was nice! He also took his shirt off half way through it cause it was sooooooo hot in there. And at the end Ryan jumped down into the pit and we got to rub him :) Such a nice man!! Toward the end of the show, Izzy threw her boa on the stage in front of Ryan. Ryan didn't see it at first so Paige picked it up and draped it over his shoulder. A few minutes later Paige returned to Ryan's side and put it over his other shoulder and then kinda laughed. Before he went back over to his side, he pulled it off Ryan and threw it in back of him (where Jay would soon step on it..heheh)

Uggghhhh...after the show, me and Izzy were like the ultimate scums. We had, spit, water, ciggarette smoke, beer, and sweat stenches and what not clinging to us...yuck. We got some sodas at the bar and thought things over to ourselves. But, not to long after Amir had come to mingle with all the scummy with an occasional clean fan inside. I like ran up to him I was like "Amir!!!" and he was like "ugggghhhh yeah?" and I was like " ugggggghhhhhh ugghhhhh uuuugggghhhh, can I get a picture with you??" and he was like "oh sure" and so me and Izzy got pictures with him and Izzy told him about how he ran away after the Hammerstein show and he said that it was always crazy there. I had told him that he sounded so different in person then he did in interviews and he was like "in a good or bad way" and I just told him that it was "all good cause he was Amir". Then Izzy asked him to pronounce his name and he was like "uggghhh what part?" and we just told him to say the whole thing, so he did.....oh damn he sounded sexy when he said it! But, then we had to go....but that was not the last we would see of Amir!!

Next Paige came out and we ran over and attacked him. Ugghhh...I can't even remeber the first things we said to Paige when he came out....we talked to him sooo many times. Izzy gave him the furry black collar that she got for him and he tried to put it on but he said that it probably wouldn't fit (and it didn't) cause he said he had a fat neck or something *sniffle*. But I asked him if he still had my Paige doll and he was kinda confused at first but I told him that I gave him the winking Paige doll and he said that he still had it and that he keeps everything the fans give him. We talked to him for a little while after that....dunno what we said though. But then, we had to go get all their presesnts that we left in the car. When we returned again, we went back over to Paige and I gave him the magnet I got him that said "Warning" I can Kick Your Butt Without Even Smearing My Eyeliner" it took him forever to read it but once he finally got it all down he smiled and laughed and gave me a sincere thank you. Then me and Izzy got pictures with him and hugs. Heheh...I droped the bag that had the cymbal me and Izzy made for Bobby and it made a little clatter...lol...and Paige just happily cheered "uh You dropped you liscence plate" hehe.. he was so drunk. We also gave him the poster we made for them (it was a pink poster board covered with pink and white feathers and in black it said "Stefany and Izzy Worship Orgy". Then it had our pictures with Paige, Ryan, and Jay on it from the first time whe met them) Paige thought it was really kool. We told him about the notes on the back and he said he would read them and what not. I think that's when Izzy started talking to him about The Cure and he was like "They are the greatest band ever". It was cute.

After we were done talking to Paige, Amir had come back out so we walked over to him again and I gave him his bracelets and his ribbon that said "I can count to 10". Izzy congratulated him on his wondeful intelligence and he smiled and laughed. Then I asked him about the Amir doll that I gave him last time after the Hammerstein show and he was kinda confused for a second but then I explained it to him and he remembered it and he too said that he kept everything the fans give him. Then we both got hugs from Amir (he smelled soooooooo good)Izzy asked him why he dind't smell like grilled cheese (that's what Christine from Orgy's Funhouse had said)he said that was the second time he's gotten that from a fan...hehe. Nice Nice man. I think we confused him a little.

After we were done talking to Amir....I think we went back over to talk to Paige again and this time he did a little dance when we walked over to him. I have no clue what we said to him this time. But he said that he was going to bring his stuff to the bus and see where Jay and Ryan were.

Our next victim was Bobby. I gave him the cuff I got him and apologized because I figured it wouldn't fit. Izzy gave him her cuff and we gave him his ribbon "I Can Ride My Bike". Then we gave him his cymbal. All the people around us thought it was really kool. Bobby enjoyed it too! He said he was going to hang it on his wall and he would show it if he ever did another "Cribs". Izzy talked to him briefly about her brother(cause he's a drummer) and he signed a gum wrapper for him. At first he wrote "Chris What Up? Bobby- Orgy" but then he was like "oh can I see that again for a second, I think I forgot that 's'" then he just started making fun of the "what up" thing, it was cute. Then I introduced him to my dad and they talked for a few minutes. My dad asked him where they were going to be playing tomorrow and he was like "uggghhhh(there was a long pause) I don't know actually" he finally figured out that he was going to be playing in "Worchester" and then Izzy, Bobby, Me, and my dad stood there trying to pronounce the damn word...hehe. Then Bobby thought that Worchester was in New York and my dad thought it was in Massachusetts...Bobby came to the smart conclusion hat it didn't really matter to him because he's "not driving"...hehe. Lots of madness there. He also mentioned that Jay was sick (flu) and that he heard he was already at the hotel (which was Best Western by the way). He said that it was really hard being on the road and what not...he's such a sweet man. Bobby then thanked my dad for taking us to the show and said it was nice to meet us and he shook our hands. Then he said he was going to go to the bus to find Ryan and see where he was.

Not too long after, Paige came marching in . Me and Izzy talked to him once again! Izzy got another picture with him (for the hell of it) and he stuck his tounge out in it. Izzy also had a scrap of paper that she wanted him to write some shit on. He was like "you want me to write some shit, that I can do" he was in the middle of writing shit and this girl bumped into him and the 't' turned into more of a 'y'. Paige turned back and looked at her, then turned back to us. He said goodbye to the girl in a very loud and drunken voice...it was soo fucking funny (even though the girl was pretty much out of sight and hearing distance). Then Paige figured out that "Some Shity is even better" man, he seemed to have a hard time writing...lol. Then this man came in and Paige shouted his name and walked over to him and gave him a hug. The man said that Paige had a present waiting for him or something and Paige was like "uh for me??" and he started laughing (anyone know how cute he is when he puts his hand over his mouth when he laughs?? He's pretty damn cute let me tell you). then he started walking toward some people and he was like "I feel like a prom queen". He collected a few people and left with them all trailing behind him...hehe

Finally Ryan made his enterence. Izzy like shoved the giant beer bottle she bought him in his face and Ryan was like "Holy Shit!" and then I gave him his Spice Girl book and my "Got Beer" sticker. Then Izzy spanked a "Spank Me" sticker on his ass! Somehow, I guess I pulled it off and then Izzy told me to leave it on his ass so I smacked it back on...lol. We talked about a lot with Ryan. I of course asked him if he had my Ryan doll and he said he did. He says he has a box where he keeps all his fan gifts and girlfriend stuff. He calls it his "Ego Box". That's where he said my doll was. We got pictures with him and hugs. One girl gave Ryan a kiss on the cheek and Ryan was like "Dude, I wish I had girls as pretty as you giving me kisses in highschool. If it was like that I wouldn't be in a band." Some kid had the Circus magazine with all of Orgy on the cover, the really old one where Ryan didn't have any eyebrows. So Ryan drew eyebrows on himself. Then he started like preaching to the fan crowd about record labels and he was using all of these really big words so I didn't know what he was talking about. Some point in time, Jonny from Spineshank came out and someone was a little drunk. He was like spinning around. But, I got a picture with him and his autograph and shit. Then he started drawing shit on his picture in the same Circus magazine that Ryan was drawing on. They were laughing about all this random stuff. I asked Ryan to sign my pick and Ryan was like "that's not your pick it's my pick see it's got my name on it" hehehe it was funny. Then me and Izzy were talking to him about our websites and Ryan said he was going to make an internet day for himself pretty soon. Ryan asked Izzy what was on hers and she told him about "Orgy Street" and how he was big bird and Ryan was like "Why the fuck am I Big Bird??" hehehe. And she told him that Jay was oscar the grouch and Ryan quietly said that "he could aggree with that". Then Izzy had like five pictures left on one of her cameras and so she started taking a bunch of Ryan and Ryan was like, "why are you taking all of thses pictures of me". He grabbed her camera and just started taking random pictures. Jonny was like "Ryan, ya wanna take a picture of my penis??" hehe. Lots of other funny shit happened. Too much to write though.

Wow, that was such a fun night. I thought nothing could top my first experience but....guess who was wrong? No, actually it doesn't quite top it. Soo many things happened at each concert that made them equally amazing. I got to hang with my favorite people in my fucking hometown. The number of people I rubbed that night totaled to four beautiful rock stars. The night was one giant plus. Orgy are totally the sweetest people. I wish Jay better health...poor man. I hope Orgy enjoyed my hometown. Thank you Izzy for sharing this experience with me for the second time. I love you! and thanx to my dad for if it weren't for him, none of this would have ever happened. And wouldn't that just be the most tragic thing ever??
