Shinedown/RobZombie/Godsmack Trip, Pt. 3
-
Artist:
So, we drove to the venue. Got there and parked. We got all settled and whipped out the vodka and mini bottles of wine as chasers. Haha.. Now, wine is gross! It wasn't bad preceded by vodka, but it was terrible by itself. Ugh. Anyway, we drank in the parking lot with some dudes that were parked next to us. We chit-chatted with them for a bit and bummed some gum off of em. They were pretty cool.We decided to get goin into the show cuz Shinedown was starting, so we drank half of our bottles of wine and poured vodka in with it (yuck). We stuck them in our crotches to get them past security. That was... uncomfortable, haha. Looked like I was concealing a little peter; kept saying that I was a pre-op. =PSo we got back security, but the butthead almost made me leave my belt behind, cuz it had little studs. I'm glad I got to keep it. We made our way down to the *PIT* and whipped the booze out of our pants. We got in there and got right up to the front. We got there toward the last few songs of Shinedown =-/. I wish I woulda seen more of them cuz they kick ass.The pits were so... not pit-like! There was room to move. I liked it because it was easy to get to the front, but I didn't like it because it was less exciting that way. I also liked it because I didn't get all sweaty and gross. So it goes both ways... But I thought that was weird; haven't been in a pit where you could move freely.So, Shinedown wrapped it up, and they began setting up the stage for Rob Zombie. I was getting reaaaallllllllly excited. I fugging love RZ & crew. We finished our drinks at this time. We weren't drunk or anything, just got a little buzz. Happy medium - good deal.It was still in between sets, and I saw Captain Spalding! (The character from House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects.) Haha, I got a kick out of it. It was just some guy in the pit wearing the Capt. Spalding mask. So.. Justine and I posed with him for a picture =).Waiting wasn't bad, because we talked to a bunch of good shits around us. There were some cool people... Rocked with em.Then it was time for Zombie to come on! Wwhoooooooo!Rob, John 5, Piggy D., and Tommy Clufetos rocked the shit out. It was an awesome show, as always when it comes to these guys.Rob was his normal self, runnin around and doing his ninja-zombie-karate-type dance move thingies. Haha.. I love it. John 5 (guitar) was a crazy ass, makin faces and headbangin and all.Piggy D. (bass) was also kickass, movin around a lot and headbangin.They'd run around and trade places and run past each other and it was pert cool.John 5 had an extended solo in the middle of one of the songs.. Don't remember which one. He is a KICKASS guitarist; so talented. He played with his teeth, threw the guitar in the air, and all that. It was coooooool.There were also scantily clad (female) dancers. That was pretty cool. It reminded me of Zombie's videos when he has girls/his wife dancing. I took quite a few pictures and several videos with my camera. I got some sweet ones.There was also a cameraman filming for an upcoming Zombie tour documentary DVD. I saw it on me once, so I'm keeping my fingies crossed to be on the final cut of the DVD =). I'm pretty sure that Capt. Spalding will be on there; that was pretty cool. I can't wait for the DVD to be released, whether I'm on it or not (fat chance. I was fully clothed =P).So Zombie played for about an hour, which was WAY too short._To be continued..._
