| The Complete 2007 Showlist |
[Jan. 1st, 2008|01:10 am] |
 2007 was the year that I figured out I am only able to do one thing with stupid grand amounts of consistency in life; and that is, of course, go to shows. That's me downstairs at the North Star back in February.....the night before I broke my arm and my life changed.
Grand totals: $250.00 spent on 150 shows in 2007 (approx. $1.67 per show)
Same rules & notes as last year (yes, I made rules): There are a few question marks in there so if you know what I'm missing let me know. Same if you see any mistakes. There are notes for price and guestlistedness (thankyouthankyouthankyou to everyone that didn't make me pay for things). For a show to count, I have to see at least one band for half the set. As far as New Years Eve shows......as far as I'm concerned, the whole show gets counted for the year it started in.
This year, I managed to take photos at ALL of the shows I went to. (That's a lot of photos.)

THE SHOWS:
January Shows
 My good friend Kristin had never been to a show before so I took her to see Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin in both Arlington and DC. Introducing friends into my strange world of bands makes me really happy.

February Shows
 I really thought Akron/Family were magic. And I really adored Seth. I broke my arm and missed the Haverford show. The first thing I told my family when I came to after surgery was that I wanted someone to take me to see Akron/Family. This obviously didn't happen. I wasn't satisfied; I spent the next 4 months obsessing over the magic.

 You know what? God bless my favorite boys in bands. A month after I broke my arm I went with my mom, stepdad, & stepsister to see the Spintos in C-ville.

 There've been a handful of shows in my life where I could just feel the collective joy in the room. This was one of them. I was surrounded by bands and friends and everyone was just so happy.

I guess I just want to say thanks to everyone that was nice to me and put up with me in 2007. It was possibly the worst year of my life but then I stop and think about all of the amazing music I saw and all of the wonderful people I met........I love you all so much. I've been a mess for the past year and I never seem to know what I want.....except to chase bands, take pictures, and have big adventures. Shows are my saving grace. Without them, I'd have nothing. Literally; what else do I do...? Again; thank you all and I love you.
