c'est la vie
morning sting
swindler
white houses
rinse
wanted
a thousand miles
the wreckage
she floats
half a week before the winter
basically she was sooo funny and told us awesome stories about the songs each time...well some we all know, but some stuff I didn't *shrugs*
fetish for vampires
wanted is about a ken like guy who only liked her for being a piano player
who's to say dedicated to all the people in a relationship with either their moms or the goverment after them :lol:

:oops:
It's okay! :D That's how I first saw her. I was outside and I peeked in thru the window and there she was, at the piano, looking tired, but singing bits and pieces of "Private Radio" and waiting for some kind of direction, probably from Mark toward the front.

Yes, and I was able to capture the moment:

I was first in line after the concert too. Not because I was really first in line, but because when I heard the door open and I turned around, suddenly I found myself in front of everyone else.

yeah but its not the same :(

Yeah, that's true. She does mention Nashville a lot during the concert because it was the first time she'd actually done a concert in Nashville (tho she has performed in Antioch, which is technically in the Nashville-Davidson Metro Area) and it is considered "Music City USA" and she recognized it as probably being full of aspiring songwriters and artists. I remember her saying that since this was Nashville, she couldn't play any crap songs because we'd know the difference. One thing that made it so momentous was that it was the first time she'd ever successfully performed "Private Radio" live on stage. I just hate that it's the only concert I'll be able to make it to anytime soon.

gah, yeah, I dont remember her ever coming to Montreal but she said she did...
God, i hate after concert depression :cry:
I feel the same after a John show...
*edit to say*
I looked up after concert depression on google, it seems to be something kinda real:
" i guess i'd describe post concert depression as the feeling you get when you realize that the moment you have waited for, for so long, is now over. its the drop off of adrenaline to normal levels after a concert experience. it's the annoyance at your ringing ears. it's the sitting in silence in the car on the ride home thinking about what happened.
i think you get this, especially if it's a band that you really like, or a big deal that creates more excitement than normal, partly because of the anticipation leading up to the show. you count down the weeks, days, hours until you can get ready and leave for the show. you stand in the crowd through openers, waiting for the first notes to play. the show starts and you are able to suspend reality, for at least an hour or so. you forget your problems, stress goes away, you have no worries (except maybe getting kicked in the head)...you're enveloped in something you truely enjoy
then it's over, and your forced to return to earth....to face life and everything that comes with it...the problems, the stress, the fact that you need to find money to pay for the concert (haha).
the duration of this syndrome is variable. it would depend on just how important the concert was to you. a once in a lifetime concert experience would give you a higher level of PCD than one of a band you've seen 10 times (although this may not be true). it would depend on exactly how good the show was. the show could be crap, and no PCD would result...but if the show was extremely amazing, big PCD.
treatment: find a copy of the show :) video or audio works well to relieve PCD. pictures work well also, but could also worsen PCD by triggering memories of the show and the desire to re-experience it. "
exactly how i feel

I had EXTREAME depression after i saw John. I mean i will never have depression like that again with anyone else. I mean i couldn't sleep, or function after that. It was just wow, my whole 3 years of waiting and it was over in an hour, that's really hard to grasp :cry:
With vanessa i was just really sad it was over but even sadder cause i had a change to met her but didn't take it. THAT caused my depression :roll:
