is it worth it? can you even hear me?

so last night i witnessed many high and low points..i went to the Atreyu,Underoath, Alexisonfire and The Used show. well the first band might as well have been Atreyu, but worse. they were called Hold Me in Contempt or something. actually upon trying to make fun of them right there i think that name's better than their actual name haha. but anyways this blog isn't about them. last night was kind of like a sandwich with delicious cold cuts, lettuce, cheese and everything awesome in the middle but old, thick, hard bread on the outsides. in the middle was Underoath and Alexisonfire.
best part of the night:Underoath. man those guys are incredible, they made me so happy that i already have a ticket to the next time they're close to me(seattle). they rock so hard, they always represent Jesus but not make it a big deal, they have respect for everyone and therefore they get respect back. and the show.. man!SO GOOD! it started off with tim coming to the front of the stage,singing,spitting and then slipping and falling over backward, converse up. then he shot back up and laughed his shaved head off. and aaron has this new thing where he double kicks so fast and he really is everything i want to be. he has such interesting placement, and he actually gets away with not being totally solid in his beats. he's pretty much the opposite of riley from thrice but i love them both. in seattle i will wait until i can talk to him.
Alexisonfire was also amazing. i can never go to an alexis show and say i was disappointed, mostly for the reason that i just got to listen to and see Dallas Green sing for 30-45 minutes. he is so incredible. he goes everywhere with his voice, rarely does the same thing twice, and never misses a beat or goes flat. so awesome. and they played their slower song(happiness by the kilowatt i think) and it was intense. they did really well, it was the last night of the tour and everyone seemed really greatful and sad that it was over.
The night finished off with i think over an hour of The Used. intro'd with the street drum corps or something, they were interesting at first, i guess, but they went on for soooo looong. lame. The Used are pretty solid. my favourite part is their bass player, jeph i think. he has a lot of style and does a cool little dance move a lot. bert sings so dang high, and his screams are always very intense, he probably wont have much of a voice box in the next couple years but for now it's good to witness. i don't know barely any of their new songs and they only played like 4 of their old songs, when they did it was enjoyable, but the sound was such that you had to know the song to understand what was going on. so for the msot part i was kinda meh about it. the best part was at the end when they played(i should really know the name of this song) the first song on their first cd..MAYBE MEMORIES thats it. i thought of it, i didnt look it up i promise. anyways they quickly covered 2 choruses and a verse of REFUSED!in the middle of the song, which was pretty cool. best part of their whole show. all in all the show made me extremely pumped to see underoath and thrice at the showbox with probably much better sound. and also i realized that vancouver can get into shows, which was a good realization everyone went crazy for the used filming their dvd. thats about it.
