I finally got to see avril lavigne. I had the tickets since june. At that time i thought Simple plan and evan would bethere. It was kinda bad that both one of my fav. guitar players, i play guitar myself, and one of my fav bands droped the show.
BUt, it was amazing anyways!
I got there like 30 min. before that show started, there was a lot of traffic, and i thought i would get the worst places! BUT I DIDNT I got really good places. I was in the rigts, like 5 lines of pleople behind the stage. I went to the right because evan usually was there and devan ould be there, so i cuold check out how he was in guitar! (read more abou that later)
BOwling for soup srated at perfect timing! 8 pm sharp they started! They were so funny, they would stop in the middle for a "drink break" and kept reaping how it was their 1st show in holland and shit! They were really good! Some song i remebre they played were: "theh gisrl all the bad guys want" (they didnt say avril in this show and it was their last song), "always", the britney spears song! Which was funny at first, but inda lame atthe end, they should have done only half the song, "get happy", i loved how they played this one, the other song that i cant remeber ... "emily", there we go emmm, and a song about an ex irl frind the lead singer had that broke uo with him and married a loyer!
They played for abour 45 minutes! THen it took like 30 min or more for avril to start. About the stage it was pretty cool, i liked the video is mobile that were showing some younger avril pics.
Anyways, She and all th guys, but matt, stood up atthe front of the curtain thing and they started with He wasnt, and thhen they dropped t ething and there i was!!! Lol
Avril was more interactive that what i watched in the try to shut me up tour! But tsill she didnt talk much. She looked she was having the best time of her life.
I think that the whole show was
He Wasn't (av with guitar)
My Happy Ending(av with guitar)
Take Me Away (av with accustic guitar and band)
Freak Out (awsome)
Sk8erboi
Anything But Ordinary (It sounded gr8)
Who Knows (one of my fav)
I'm With You
Mobile (I think she played it w/ guitar not usre)
Naked (same as mobile)
Losing Grip
Together
Forgotten
Tomorrow (alone on acoustic guitar- cristal clear sound)
fall to pieces (accustic with devon)
Nobody's Home (started alone on acoustic guitar, then the band joined)
Don't Tell Me
Unwanted
Last song??? NOOOOO
Complicated
Slipped Away (alone on piano)
The show was .. no words can describe it! lol
But i have some comments
I didnt realise until evnasite told me that evan's voice was used in some back up vocals and craig mimimed them! I noticed them n naked!
ABout deon, he is not as good as evan, and he'll never be. Evn is in a complete diff. level.Devon was really confortable w/ plying in the stage. I dint knwo if thats good, i just hoped that evan would have beedn there! I odnt know Iam happy that he leftthe band,m but not before comeing here, im selfish, i know!
One last thing.
when she did teh accustic ones ...
she sat on the very left side, where i wasnt!! lol, i was in the ver right side, and i would have had avril at less that 4 meters!!! Im so lucky!!! Devon sat in front of me! Imagine if evan would have been there!!!!
I took some pic with my celphone but they suck so, i hope some1 else here took pictures!!! and postthem on bandaids!! lol
