Right...Let's get this straight...I only knew one deathstars song 'Blitzkrieg '. No names, not seen them live nothing...but i heard of them so went to see them with my friends...
Anyway lets begin at the start...
6th Nov: Myspace message from Kacii asking if i'm going to the deathstars gig tomorrow..reply: yep!
7th Nov: 9am-12pm Art school, find out my mate christy is going too. 12pm: skip art school (sshh don't tell tutors!!)
3pm: Wait for kacii, go to mcdonalds...and it happens...(now i know stoneman fans are on here, don't take this the wrong way I'm telling the truth. And no i won't tell you what members did it..). Anyway walk into mcdonalds, think i see one of my mates...but it's not and this guy i looked at stares at me like a zombie...next thing i know him and his mate are gone...next time i see them is in virgin megastore with sunglasses and hoodies on...I have no clue who these dudes are...maybe i'm paranoid or they think i'm a stalker...oh anyway back to mcdonalds i see a tall guy with dreadlocks...i think to myself that he's in deathstars..also see rock guys walk around aberdeen too (cat and nightmare i find out later)
4pm: OMG! you saw skinny!! Kacii arrives...With awesome purple gitter boots on. We go to tunnels (early i know but it pays off) and see another girl sitting there. Her name is sian. We chat and yap about random stuff. then the door opens.
4:30pm Some roadie who works at the tunnels says "it's cold, why are you early?, wanna come in?" We get stamped when we pay to get in...and then he says we can go in....to the soundcheck. We see Bone Machine (yes i know their names now) telling the sound guy he wants the drums louder, basically when they all were on stage they kept saying" turn them down and turn me up!" Best part of it was when they played 'smoke on the water' and cat (I'm sure you were doing the theme tune to digimon on your guitar XD ) got told off...Soundguy: CAT STOP F**KING AROUND I'M TRYING TO HEAR THE DRUMS! and cat hides behind the speakers . They finish and stoneman come on and i recognise the two dudes...oh crap. but Despite what happened earlier they do sound good. And then something screws up and we get chucked out...and then told to come back in....yeah.. >.>
8pm: Doors open. I see my friend christy, we talk until stoneman come on at 9. Now at this point i wonder if those dudes recognise me, i think they do but forget that i'm here to listen to music and I'm impressed! The music is awesome, love their songs and stage show, the singer and guitarist fuck about, the keyboardist is mental and the drummer is chaotic...and everyone wants the guitarist zebra hat. Everyone.
10:30pm...here we go. I'm front row in front of the mic...and i'm gone once the first song starts (last ammuntion, not sure) I know i'm gonna love this band. Everytime one instrument stops, whoever is playing it freezes like a zombie, and occasional stick their tongue out (cat....) or roll their eyes side to side (bone..). And Whiplasher is an amazing front man, dancing around and then he does the most unusual thing...he puts his hand on my head....now me I'm wondering this. (Wtf? I don't know this song? (it was Synthetic Generation!!) Argh...wow he has nice eyes..) it was like he was feeding off my energy or something. crazy i know but kinda cool. I take photos awesome one of nightmare holding his guitar (well i'm an art student i love photos ) and films and then i hear it...the intro to that song...the only song i knew at the time...Blitzkrieg...*headbang!!!!* i sing like there's no tomorrow. After it Whiplasher gives my new friend sian the mike to hold...she has no idea what to do...she gives it back (i woulda done the same) then more talk and then OI!!! I KNOW ALL YOUR SONGS!!! some random guys screams. Whiplasher: really? guy: YEAH! I CAN SING THEM BETTER THAN YOU!!! Whiplasher: no...I am the one who teaches....I'M THE TEACHER SHE IS THE PUPIL!! *pointing to sian!* then he grabs my hair again, bends down and looks staight into my eyes (At this point i think he's doing some weird voodoo shit XD) and whispers the start of some song (found out it was little angel), lduring this he bends down...and i get my revenge I hold his head (get a few laughs too XD )later a guy comes on stage and hugs him, then whiplasher shoves him off in a nice way of course. He then gets mr. I CAN SING BETTER THAN YOU! to sing and nearly gets hit with skinny's dreads. He then comes back to me. (WTF? seriously i love the attention!) And lies down on the speaker in front arm wrapped round my neck...and cat straddles him...yep..i have a nice view Anyway....the deathstars leave for the encore..I basically turn to sian and kacii and go...wow. A short haired girl next to me: Wow you're getting a lot of attention! yeah! i only know one song and this is my first time seeing them! Girl: Lucky you! Me: hey you know you're in the middle now...Girl: O.o and whiplasher comes on topless (as does skinny) and masturbates with his mic in front of the short haired girl then it ends. damn it. We slowly leave, go and get merch and..see cat and bone outside! Lovely guys they sign my poster and i get my photo taken with them. Skinny next whos loving kacii's shoes! Then whiplasher and nightmare come out. Can you sign this? Whiplasher: Ah! It's my little girl i preach too!! Thanks for helping out with the show! Me: no prob Nightmare: ah so you're the one he feeds off Skinny: Cleanses her soul! Me:..yeah! i get whiplasher and Nightmare to sign but then they go back in... So a crowd including me, sian and kacii (my other friend christy went to the bar XD) go to the tour bus to wait. Get my photo with nightmare and one of kacii hugging cat! Then meet whiplasher and one more time he places his hand on my head. Whiplasher: have a good life! see you next time in death! I turn to sian: Death? I'm seeing them way before that..or did i just die? sian smilies. We walk to the taxi rank and say our goodbye (we got the myspace links for each other though) I walk home with poster and get back to student flat and collaspe in bed...you know you have had a great time when you have lot all energy.....thanks guys see you soon, before death hopefully
