I'm quite aware that what you said was supposed to be sarcastic. Regardless, I chose to meander off for one post, whereas plenty of other posts have gone further than that. Try the Coach bag thread. Either way, why do you think that I don't know who Afterglow is? =)
Why don't you come on over? Stop making a fool out of me.

Don't worry!  If you're in an accident, who are you gonna call?  A wrecker, of course!  Now, we're back on topic! :wink:

Damn, why do I always miss everybody when they're on TV?  Well, thanks for the upload, though it'll be another hour and a half before I get it and probably a few days before I'll get a chance to watch it. :)

Okay so I went to see The Wreckers last night at the Canyon Club and it was a really great show but there were some problems.

First of all when I get there I find out that I didn't have tickets waiting for me at will call because the credit card didn't go through yet my reservations for dinner was there. WTF? So I didn't have any hard tickets for the show and I collect my concert tickets.

Then they didn't have any merchandise for sale there so I couldn't buy a program or keychain which I also collect.

I eat dinner and the food was really good but then I see some girls that didn't eat there sitting in front of the stage of the dance floor and realize that if they stand I won't be able to see the show so I'm eating and worrying that I won't see the show. Luckily when I was through eating there was still a spot in the front of the stage slightly off center but right below where Michelle would be standing.

The actual show was awesome. They sang a 15 song set with a couple of new songs like Damn That Radio. Jessica sang a song by Lori McKenna called Drinking Problem for her solo and Michelle sang All You Wanted completely different from the single version. It was really good. They sounded great and didn't seem nervous like they do on their TV appearances. Michelle said she was glad to be in "her hood" and jokingly invited everyone there to a party at her house. Apparently she lives near Agoura Hills. I actually did get a setlist from the show so that was awesome. Unfortunately I didn't get to meet them or get a picture with them because I didn't know how they do that kind of thing at the venue and the security guy said you needed a special pass to go into the back.

The worst part of the night was that I thought I had gotten video from the show because they allowed digital cameras at the venue but when you have someone technologically challenged using the digital camera because you can't you end up with pictures instead of video and only 2 of the pictures turned out good.

All in all it was a good night and hopefully I'll get to see them again soon. Here are my pictures:

Nice pics!

Thanks for the review, too  :D. It's too bad the video didn't turn out.
For all you broken hearted lovers lost, go find another one. 'Cause you know time won't wait and you'll be late, white rabbits on the run...
