Rockville Part Deux!

Yup. Its that time of year again. My concert season was kicked off with Family Force 5's Rise Up tour (EPIC!)  but thats not what we're here to talk about, is it? No, children, its Welcome to Rockville! The first band worth mentioning (IMHO) was Lacuna Coil. Not my favorite by far but pretty awesome. Me and Bones knew where we needed to be though. Main stage. Where we then planted ourselves and didn't move.

Our faces were melted off by serious metal from Trivium. Holy crap. Yea. I'm not a huge metal fan... but that might change cause they were sick! (Also the bassist was hot. Just sayin'.) Next up was P.O.D.... And I could not have cared less. Blah. Bones' brother was pretty psyched but.. meh. Really we were just anxiously awaiting Halestorm. And they did not disappoint! Their badassery punched me in the face and I LOVED IT. (Not gonna lie.... I have a tiny girlcrush on Lzzy Hale. She's so just sickeningly fierce!) After my ears were blessed by Halestorm's sweet sounds of awesomeness, I thought to myself, how could this day get any better? (I should point out that it was now that someone (not pointing fingers.. Bro.) wanted to leave. Um.. WHAT!? After that crazy nonsense was slapped down) The universe finally answered, oh um effing Five Finger Death Punch could show up! OMG. My eyes almost popped outta my head due to the excessive amount of rock that was being delivered. I kinda wanted to storm the stage and climb Ivan Moody (the lead singer) but I didn't. (They would've thrown me out! Then I'd have missed the rest of the set. So instead I just thought about it.. alot.)

 Then it was time for what every female fan there that day was waiting for. Evanescence. Amy Lee owned that stage like it was her personal bitch.  She screamed, we screamed, everyone screamed and it was good. So so good. (P.S. Call Me When You're Sober is legit live.) I was so amped for Korn but... my ride was done. (Gasp! You want to leave? WHY!?) But they were finished. So we left. Before Korn. Sigh. Rockville is no doubt the only thing that could make me willingly spend that many hours in direct sunlight. Ever. Needless to say I can't wait til next year! ( And now for your viewing pleasure. A small taste of Evanescence.)

Rockville

I spent nine hours outside yesterday, which is like unheard of for me. But I had very good reason to do so. Six great reasons actually. Son of a Bad Man, HalestormSkillet, Theory of a Deadman, My Darkest Days, and Seether to be exact. It was awesome! There were only three things that happened that kept the day from being truly epic. 1. My camera died mid-concert. Sigh. 2. I, sorta, elbowed my bestie Bones in the face. (Ooops! I told you I thrash hardcore.) 3. Seether didn't play Careless Whisper! WTF! Grrr. Oh well. I left the park with a My Darkest Day tee, a signed Halestorm cd, and an insane sunburn. So all in all a awesome day. Could have been a super day but, no... I'm looking at you Seether! Way to bring the party down. Jk. But seriously.
