(sorry in advance somethings I write may not be in the order they happened and also spelling mistakes)
We left the house at about 6 got there around 7.It was me my bff my cuz hu is around my age and sadly my mom and lil sis.We were listening to rap the ride there making fun of it....well at least I was cuz I hate rap.The only rap song I really like is Loose It by eminem cuz I like it when he screams!
We got there and my sis bout a shirt and put it on we walked into the stadium place and our section was right there 123.It was lower section.We were row 8.Which were so awsome.There was a platform coming of the stage near our seats literaly like 8 feet away.The seats around it were bloked off by yellow tape stuff we were rite nxt to the tape.That would be awome if it wasnt bloked off.
B4 anything started my friend bought popcorn the guy gave her a demo of his cd.(we listened to it in the car: 2 songs and it wasnt that good.It was alrite not my taste)It started with Butch Walker and his band American Hi-Fi.I am not gonna spend too much time describing them for this is maily about Avril.They were good.My mom and my sister found them to loud.But it was fine for me.We were rite nxt to the big tv so we could see it really well.
After they were done I went to the bath room cuz I drank too much soda.On the way back me and my bff stoped of at the Q102 table and got a hat.I was looking around for the 96.5 station cuz I know one of the d.j's because he has guitar after me with my teacher.We went back to our seats my friend left her purse there with my mom and it wasnt there when we got bak and neither was my mom.But thankfully my mom took it with her so when she came back to gave it to my friend.
So they had a black curtain down so no1 culd see them setting up but being on the side we could.And it looked really awsome.So we saw avril coming out with her band.She started singing He Wasnt then the curtain dropped.She was wearing a plain black hoodie and green kind of kaky-ish pants.I liked her outfit something I could see my self wearing.I saw her and everytime I do I think she shrunk.But she looked really cute.
During the concert she kept taking drinks and l8r on when she came near us she had a cup wich I am guessing was tea cuz it was steaming.But even if she had a sore throte she sounded awsome and I culdnt tell.She sang some of her old songs to like Mobile complicated sk8r boi etc. I am pretty sure she didnt sing all of her newer songs which I didnt like too much.
At one point she came to the platform near as a played guitar there solo for a whole song...I forget which one it was one of the slow ones.It was awsome she was so close.(She we about how close she was at the mall tour and that was pretty close I was 2nd row behind handy cap at the mall tour) During the songs my mom started to dance which was embaressing not like clap your hands wave your arms but like shaking her ass.I told her to stop she wouldnt listen.
Kind of near the end her and her band came out dressed up.Avril was a hooters girl and butch camed out dressed as one too.They were wearing hooters tank top and really short orange shorts.She sang hey ya then she played a song on the drums I am not sure what song and I think it was butch who was singing.Then she came back when she came out to do complicated she quickly ran behind the stage which was funny and started singing.She came back and she had her sweat shirt bak on.During the whole concert the girls behind us no matter where in the row we would move kept hitting us on the head with their purses.One of them fell on my mom which I find funny.
I feel like she didnt really involve the audiance like she did in the try to shut me up tour.Also it was seemed short.I guess the third just isnt as good as the first.Also with out Evan she had a lot of solo's.You cant replace Evan.When she went to introduce the band me and my bff who also likes Evan were screamin "We want Evan" no one around us knew hu he was...idiots.Over all it was good Avril was awsome.But I feel like she should have involved the audience more and talked more.Last time she talked a lot this time it was just mostly singing.I dont know why I just love hearing her talk she has the coolest voice.
We got out and we drove around the parking lot.My bff and my cousin got a shirt.I didnt want a white one but the only other ones they had was the one I had.So I ended up getting a really cool white long sleve one.By the end of the night my voice was gone and my ears killed.
