Subject: RE: Review: Bright Eyes (Conor Oberst)
I was just at a bright eyes show the 26th. Thursday. I was right up front, and let me tell you, the show was intense. I swear to you that I came away from it as a completely different person. At one point he got up on the keyboard! I was scared he might fall. It was an awesome show. I know this sounds really teenage-girl-like, but when he looked at me, a hunger inside me was filled that I didn't even know was there. It is so different to actually be there and see him singing...I was singing along with the words of the songs I knew. Sometimes I had to close my eyes and feel the music, b/c it was just that intense, man. The guitarist from the YeahYeahYeahs was there. He took a picture of me and the people to my left just before the encore, before conor was back onstage. I probably looked really stupid, b/c I didn't even smile, I just looked at the camera with my mouth open. In my mind, it was like: oh, look, a camera, how bout that. then he took the picture and i was like: crap.
    Yeah, so that's my story, if anyone cares. If you dont you should've just skipped my entry.
   Why am i even posting this anyway?
