[snakes on a plane soundtrack party - key club - august 16, 2006]
on wednesday, at the key club, my little emo heart exploded and will never be put back together again. i told someone before the show that "the entire world" was going to be there, to which he replied, "the key club isn't big enough to hold the whole world." which is true. so i responded "well MY world will be in that room." friend-friends. show/jm friends. "work" friends. everyone else. and then, of course, the who's who of the scene world. scene queens. and thesounds. jacksmannequin. theacademyis williambeckett. gymclassheroes. cobrastarship. falloutboy. ALL IN ONE TINY VENUE. if panic! was there i probably would've passed out. literally.
the lineup was awes (the sounds, gym class acoustic, jack's acoustic, william solo, cobrastarship with all the guestmembers, then fall out boy). i was all ready with my photopass when of course, i have a battery malfunction issue. backup batteries are of no use either. after a pretty major freakout session, it was resolved. i have to thank e and irene for dealing with me and helping me out in every way they could. i have to thank the staff and security at key club for being so nice. and the guy at the liquor store on the corner of doheny and sunset. i almost hugged him as he sold me the batteries, but i just told him that he had just saved my life. without you all.. there would be no photoblog today.
1. maja is amazing. but you knew that already.
2. gym class heroes, i missed part of their set.. but the best was when patrick stump came out to sing cupid's chokehold, the scene kids are freaking out, and irene texts me "who is that guy from?" 
3. i tried not to look too excited during jack's, but who am i kidding? someone from buzznet snapped a photo of me while i was geeking out. 
4. apparently i looked like a scene kid and not some official photog b/c i must've been asked at least 5 times if i had a media pass.5. william beckett. messing up the words to attention. interrupted by travis. and gabe. the kids singing along to EVERY WORD. i didn't care how stupid i looked. the entire room singing an entire first part of the song up till the chorus, and william just standing back in awe. THAT IS LOVE. then he was like "alright i'm going to sing it now." **lighting sucked hxc during his set :(
6. cobrastarship. the snakes song killed me. i died. 
and then my camera decided that it was in love with william beckett. 
7. fall out boy. that was ridiculous. i could feel the venue floor shaking and the kids going absolutely nuts. NUTS. some dudes who were geeking out to fall out boy later tried to hit on me. haha sorry guys. and i'm sure everyone would love to argue that they suck and that they sold out and pete wentz is.. blah blah. but you know what, they put on an amazing show. they love their fans. they love playing for them. i sang along to every word i knew. 
(bad picture, but how happy does he look? he has the best smile.)
