Jenny don't feel bad about posting so many pix, honestly you could have posted more!!! I'll be posting all of my decent ones (I was in the pit so I have a lot "Smacked" pics as I call them with motion behind them) and shite like that...
Well now I'm PISSED at Avenged. They played last in Minneapolis and we got no encore granted they had to drive 18 hours that day so I shouldn't be too pissed at them for that. I swear they don't have a driver and they do it themselves...but eh.
Retta: They parked the buses underground at the Fargodome. We're that big that we have that...the limo or a limo was there when I left and it was for a bunch of people. I so wanna do that the next time they're in town (HOLD ON I NEED TO HAVE A JAMES HART SPAZ)
I'm good.

Anyways...
Ha. Brian probably was drunk in Fargo..."Kissies Kissies" and yes Retta, thats basically what Zacky said verbatim. Front row means you can understand them!!! In Minneapolis Zacky was talking about how Johnny was sick and that was all I could understand from him and I got NOTHING from what Syn was saying.
Matt commented on all the hott girls in Fargo, he was impressed with us or something...but the front row as far as I could see was all chicks seriously sooo chances are he had to see at least one he found attractive...

Johnny sang the start of "Seize The Day" in Fargo, he didn't want to though...but Matt made him. NO ONE sang it in Minneapolis, matt picked up the very last line like "OH YEAH There's lyrics there!!!"

Zacky wore the same shirt to both shows...one of his own...that lil self promoting whore. But in fairness I wore my Vengeance tee there (and I'm fairly certain he saw it) so I can't really blame him for it...AND I THINK HE WORE IT IN MONTANA TOO!!! OMC.
I'm not over how good Johnny looked at all...I mean the man was like 'HOLY FECK" and then Brian in Fargo...oh god. I can be teenie...just a little bit.

But yeah...
I didn't cry or get choked up but I've seen them live before so I think its novelty or something has woren off. I mean I choked up and kind of cried when they did "I Won't See You Tonight Part One" in Omaha last year, but that was it.


OH YEAH
MERCH
There is ONE shirt thats $30 (I got it) and the rest are $25 (I got one of those too...and Buckcherry shirt)

So I read the review in the paper...and it was singing the praises of Avenged and Shinedown and shunning Buckcherry (calling them dull and shite like that, they actually said that they should have opened and Shinedown should have headlined) and Saving Abel they said was dull too...but whatever. Hell here's a link to the article (I didn't go looking for it, it found me on GMail): Article

Only three problems I had with the show in Bloomington, Illinois.

1. Bloomington, home to Illinois State University, has the biggest cry babies I ever experiences. All everyonen did in the middle was bitch about how hot it was in there and random crap. Let alone we barely got the pit going becasue everyone was crying when it started, so we had like a mini-circle of people running into each other. It wasn't productive at all. I usually catch them in Chicago, where the real fans go, and I can't wait until they're back at House of Blues or Congress Theater.

2. They didn't play any of their old songs besides Unholy Confessions. I do have to understand that they have to keep playing their newer stuff to draw to the newer crowds there getting. I guess I just miss the days when I first saw them playing "Eternal Rest" and "Second Heartbeat," and the entire floor at House of Blues was shaking up in Chi-Town. Either way, their new stuff is great and is always amazing to hear live.

3. No encore! I wanted a Little piece of heaven and watching the guys up there act all goofy and stuff. I saw them do it last year and it was such a fun song to go out on!

Either way, minus these 3 little stupid complaints, the show was awesome. I got way too intoxicated, but had the time of my life as I always do. It's great being around people that do enjoy this music, and it's even better being able to basically celebrate the greatness that is Avenged Sevenfold.

I do give props to Shinedown, they're one of my bands I have liked listening to for a while, and I thought they played an awesome show for us last night. They stuck with the songs that got them we're they're at, and it was really fun seeing them live. Buckcherry was alright, I had fun just running around to them playing. I don't even remember Saving Abel, if they even played for that matter.

But i'll be counting the days down again until A7X gets back in the city of Chicago, where they belong playing. I know for a fact they're not going back to Bloomington becasue I had a sense they didn't even enjoy being there, which I don't blame them at all.

LONG LIVE A7X

lol stormy, those were the only good ones, really. most of them were really blurry. xD
and LMFAO. was it a black tank top that zacky wore? bc that's what he's got in mine. i'd laugh so hard if he wore it all three days.
that shit's gotta REEK.
i feel like such a pansy for saying that i got all upset, but i guess it was just because it was THEM.
and i don't want to get all philosophical on ya, so i'll cut it short.

and i wish they would've played second heartbeat or eternal rest too. :/
but i'm glad you also had a great time! :D

He wore a Vengeance University shirt that you can't buy...its got a skull on it in Fargo and St. Paul (Legally it was in St. Paul I just knee jerk to Minneapolis).

If you see them on the first leg of the new tour for a new cd, they play more old stuff...at least thats been my experience

I'm gonna edit this post later with some images once I edit and upload to MySpace since Photobucket HATES ME.
Fargo ones will be later this week, Tris has to get something special to get the shite off of her camera phone and onto a computer...but I did get 8 pictures from the show thus far and one of them is a pretty good shot of Brian...sooo you'll see those tonight or tomorrow


EDIT
ST.PAUL

One Two Three Four Five Six Seven


Some Buckcherry

ONE TWO THREE FOUR FIVE


For more pictures either wait or go to my MySpace...there's a link in my profile

So, my brother officially can't take me.

But, I haven't given up yet. I am in the process of creating a persuasive powerpoint to show my mom.

I used some of your pics, if that's alright.

I'm all for people saving and using my pictures as long as "This is my pic" never crosses their lips in reference to something I created while being hammered in a mosh pit.
I'm sorry your brother can't take you but I hope you get to go!!!

I was closer in Fargo...FECK. I was at Retta's and I didn't get that cord and I was with Tris and I didn't try to get the pix off...
QUESTION

WHEN REMOVING PICTURES FROM A PHONE: DO YOU NEED A SPECIAL CARD TO PUT THEM ON A COMPUTER???
They won't email thro a text apparently so we need to attach the phone with a cord...
anyone know??? Eh this is the wrong thread...

The faster I get an answer the faster I get my Fargo pix up!!!

Stormy, my dad is yelling at me to find stuff out and he won't give me a yes. He wants to know how early would I have to be there to get a good spot in line.

I don't mind pushing a bit to get closer, but I don't want to want to push me and my sister through the pit.

I was there 90 minutes before the show and I got front row.
I've shown up AFTER the first band was on stage and gotten 4th row(First ever show). I showed up about ohhh 10 minutes before doors adn got 3rd row (Omaha). I deliberately stayed back at TOC with Retta and everyone, I was there like 20 minutes before doors in Minneapolis/St.Paul this time around and I got 3rd/4th row.
Its all very do-able to get close with minimal effort. I didn't have to shove my way at all at those shows, I just moved witht he crowd and caught a few breaks. Fargo the first time I got front row because of the guys we met there gave me his spot in exchange for holding onto his glasses for him

Thank you so much!, I was afraid I'd have to get there really early.

I'm off to beg some more.

You COULD but that doesn't mean shite. I mean different cities have different rates of showing up. I know people who got there like 3 hours or more before doors and when I looked, they weren't front row. Sooo IDK.

GOOD LUCK!!! Lemme know how it goes

<thinks>
Okay so St. Paul started at ... <goes to check>
OKAY I CHECKED WITH SIANA
Saving Abel took stage at 7:58 and we were out of there around 11:45 because we were on the road home by midnight and home by 4 am (its about 4 hours from Minneapolis).
However SHINEDOWN wasn't there.
Fargo was out before midnight too because I got out of there and to WalMart before the cash register drawers changed (I had to break a $100).
So you'll be out of there around midnight a little before

I do what I can to make sure other members can go see Avenged.

I hope your mom says Yes!!!


edit

So I was looking for shite about the Fargo show (since my pictures are still trapped on a cell phone) and instead I found out that apparently this tour is going to continue after the new year or something like that because the Rapid City show (South Dakota) is going to happen in January sometime. Not sure when yet, but people are being told to hold onto their tickets, and that they'll be honoured at the rescheduled date...HMMM January...if its late in the month I could go...BA HA HA HA

*runs around screaming*

I CAN GO!!!!

Apparently, my dad convinced her to say yes. I don't know how he did it, because she's been saying no for a month.

My sister isn't too happy about having to stand in the mosh pit for music she doesn't like and getting a headache, but I guess she'll have to deal.

ARG!!! I'm so excited, I need to plan!

I WANNA GO TO THE QUEBEC SHOW SO BADLY. but I can't afford that big of a trip right now.
IF YOU GO: FOR ME: YOU MUST TAKE PICTURES OF BURN HALO!!! OR I WILL CRY SO HARD. lol. Seriously. I'd sell my soul to see them live. If I still had that $1000 I'd go to the fecking Quebec show or the Balitmore show just to see Burn Halo. But NOOO I just had to give my parents $1380 so we'd have a home!!!

HELL YES THAT YOU'RE GOING!!! THATS AWESOME!!!
you've going to have an amazing time.
Have you gotten your tickets yet?!? GO GET THEM!!!
