It's 3am, and I just got home from the worst Fishbone concert ever (out of 20+). And, what seems to be one of fishbone's worst days ever, although, touring life is tough...it might have just been another Tuesday for them (I could never get ahold of Tuesdays...)

Anyway, apparently their bus broke down, or their manager broke down, or Steward broke down or something. They were...

Now you now Chaos is the name of AKP's album, right. I haven't bought it but they're growing on me (after 6 shows).

This Fishbone show stunk---from the ultimate fan. I couldn't even tell you what they played. I know they played Behavior but I couldn't even attempt to stage dive. Yeah, the bus broke down. You can't blame them. Then I guess Wood and manager, etc. got l...

I was at the chicago show too, i met jeff, dave, kcholly i met you at the end...and i met some other people who aren't on the list, just kinda met them, that was pretty cool. I did get to give them the icecream cake, didn't get a picture of it though. I had to stop at work and pick it up, then take a bus, i had to run with this big ass cake box to the bus and i was right next to it, waving at the bus driver but she kept on going. so i had to take the broadway bus and walk to clark from there. lemme tell you my arms were tired! i talked to a guy named ricky who let me use a freezer and he told me to wait at a table until fishbone came. ok then i acted like a huge moron in front of angelo again, cuz he sat down at a table next to mine and i was looking at him, but i didn't think it was him cuz they weren't there yet and so i just kinda smiled at him and put my head down cuz i was so out of it. he he oh well. I did get to give them the cake later on but i have no idea if they got to eat it? some girl that i work with was telling me how she would never eat a cake a fan gave her if she was famous. I got to meet john a nd spacey but then i was being kinda shy and stuff so ricky told me i should go back downstairs. haha. he scolded me for being so shy too. (oh yeah, i remember there was somebody on here talking about how john was mean, that is definately not true, he is sooooooo friendly!) The show was kinda dissapointing in a way but its easy to understand since their day really sucked. From what I gathered they broke down somewhere, then they rented vans, then they got seperated and norwood dro ve 4 hours the wrong way. Uh some of the other songs they played were shakey ground, cholly, nutmeg world, and angelo did some madd vibe stuff at the begining: nate procrasto, the poem about the redneck in hawaii, and jah jah on the telephone. One thing that kinda dissapointed me was that my teacher (this 60 something year old) was supposed to go but he never showed! oh well. I'm thinking he took a nap to prepare and didn't wake up....oh yeah and i d idn't really like all the moshing that much, i ended up moving to the side, but i couldn't see that much. Moshing is ok but i wear glasses so i end up worrying more about them then having fun and i like just dancing better. :) ok, damn sorry this is so long!!! I had fun though and it was good meeting other people on here!

mindy
