holyyyyyy wow

what a night
i run home after work to change
there is a fedex envelope for me..they overnighted me a ticket (damn they cost like $40) then i left..
first of had to go get tests at the doctor..good news..i'm not dying

then off to the show...security was tight
first time EVER i had to wait in line at the avalon...of course i hear this idiot behind me, and i mean idiot, "ha, does she think she can get in with that? she's gonna get searched!" blah blah...going on and on...shut up moron, mind yer business

so my turn in line and of course i tell them i'm here for my ticket and photo pass..he opened my small zipper and closes it...

of course audioslave's list is not there....it was 6:30 i think...show started at 7....it's now 6:50..list arrives....my name is not on the list..i have no clue who the 2 people working will call are
show is sold out...so i sold my ticket for $10, whatever, if i don't shoot it, i'm not going, plus i figure once i straighten it out..they'll give me another one
people at booth are lost...unfortunately...they can't help me..i see the pr guy who pages the tour manager for me and i wait....7:10...nothing...i call shatteredliz and pray she's by her computer...i give her the info...she gives me the number i'm looking for thank you liz<3
call the record label in califorina..they tell me i should be all set...tell me they will try to contact tour manager...i wait...7:15....7:20...see a different girl come out with guest list...i talk to her, i knew who she was...of course..guess what?
my name WAS on the list...i was the only legit photo pass and i was the last page of the list..and had an entire sheet with only my name and a photo release to sign

i sign and go in..
too late to shoot opener, whatever
incompetant people suck
i see a 37 yr old semu drunk contest winner with a teeny digital and she's way excited and asks me for tips...then another kid starts talking to me and tells me he went through the opening band..i tell him, usually they won't allow him to shoot the main band, esp since his pass has the initials of the opening band on it....whatever
right before they come on...security says no one is allowed to shoot audioslave because everyone went through the opening band
fuck you dude I didn't, THEY did, i signed my release...i was fucking pissed, he tells me to calm down and i try explaining how they have no clue..no luck...then the lead bouncer ninja walks over..tells security to leave me alone, i'm all set...thank you ninja, YOU rule...and then another bouncer says well then everyone can take photos...whatever...
incompetant people suck
i can't believe how unorganized it was
too many drunk guys..a lot kicked out even before audioslave went on
crowd surfing...f a person surfed 2 times...after the second time they got a warning....if they did it one more time, they were gonna get kicked out...
as for the show
damnnnnnnnnn
it was so awesome!
they played soungarden and rage songs
sooo fuckin awesome!
hadn't seen them since 2003
again tom morello and i had a mini conversation while on stage..he's so awesome
pics turned out cool i think, though i couldn't move because speakers and cabs were all over, so i was in a tiny hole right in the middle...

pics to follow if anyone cares
