Try To Shut Me Up Tour Review

Concert: Lowell

Reviewer: Mike

Date: May 15th 2003


ok this will make a whole lot more sense if you read my review from monday first. Ok so like the day before So i take the day off from uni and leave home at 8.15am to catch the train to sydney. this time i line up at the right door only there are about 10 people there already, one who had been there since 5am!! i thought this might happen as this concert went on sale first and sold out really quickly. the time passed fairly quickly as i had friends with me this time and i knew a couple of people from the day before. at about 3.45pm (the time she got there the day before) i went around to see her come in. waited for a while but didnt want to lose my spot in line cause heaps of people started getting there so went back to my spot. the one guy that was there i talked to later and he said that she didnt sign anything again and it was only him there!! slack again avril when i got back most of the people were in 1 line so i didnt have to do it this time i was once again first in line and at 7pm when they let us in i sprinted to the front and got my spot i had yesterday, front row centre. after SLA finished gob came out and during the show the bass player craig (cute one) came up to me (he didnt even come near the middle the day before) right up close on the platform in front of me and points right at me and starts jumping up and down (he wanted me bad hahahaha). im guessing he remembered me from the day before. After gob it was finally time for avril once again i saw her do the punching thing through the curtains and then she came out singing Sk8er Boi. the set list was the same as the previous night.

i must say that this concert was 10 times better than the night before just because avril was in a really good mood. she was psyced. during im with you i think it was, she got everyone in the crowd to hold their mobile phones up and wave them around because she wanted to see the "pretty colours". about half way through she got all the seated people to scream and then the people on the floor, to see who was louder. also... i couldnt believe this but the whole night she didn't touch anyones hands except those that went on stage for complicated and ME!!! yes me she came down to the front platform, saw me, smiled, grabbed my hand and kinda like pulled it as if she was trying to pull me out of the pit!! i was so excited. when she smiled i think it was a "hey you were here last night, nice" smile. evan was much better tonight too, looked like he knew what was going on lol. no guitar problems either. so yeah the concert was fucking awesome!! best ever. oh yeah and during tomorrow, i got avrils pick, then my sister fainted (not because i got the pick...) and was pulled out of the pit. i kept looking to see if she was ok and evan kept looking at me haha he looked worried for me then he gave me a nice big smile and chucked a pick to me but i missed it. i wasnt too worried as i got one yesterday. soon later the show was over.
once again i went out the back to see if she came out to sign stuff, after waiting for my sis to go loo. i get out there and she had already been out!!!! aarrrggghhh i could've killed my sister. she didnt sign many, maybe about 25?? then one by one all the boys came out and i got jesses sig. about half an hour after all the boys had been out she came out (in ugg boots) and got straight in the car. all the crowd went crazy, screaming avril avril etc. so she opened the door and came out to sign more. she maybe signed about 20 and missed me by like 2 people arrrggghhh. she looked pretty pissed off about signing them to. no "sorry i have to..." just a grumpy face and walked off to the car. apparently the radio stations bagged her out a bit after sneaking out the day before cause there were like 1500-2000 people there who waited for ages and she didnt even say goodbye. so yeah i think thats why she decided to sign some at all.
so yeah thats it, no more avril concerts (except channelv performance) unitl she comes to aussie land again. it was good while it lasted oh and i must say that after watching both concerts i reckon there is something going on between her and evan. i swear, she didnt really go near jesse or charlie. went up to matt once or twice. but evan.... she went up real close a few times and like just looked on his eyes and smiled and stuff like that. there totally has to be something going on...
