Punk Rock Concert

Yes. I went to a punk rock conert. And yes, I did enjoy it.
Bowling for Soup came to Seattle. Allen invited a few people to come with him to the concert. Cassie, Allen, Jon, Hollis, and I carpooled to the venue. Jon was so cute - acting like a 12 year old little boy because he was so excited to see one of the bands that was opening for Bowling for Soup: Moneta! He yelled their name out about every five minutes or so. Allen captured Jon's excitement:
(L to R: Jon, Hollis, Me)

At one point, Jon and Hollis decided to have a contest. They agreed that they would walk into the bar area and not talk to anyone. But they would set a timer on their phone to find out how long it would be until a girl talked to them. Jon entered the bar area. He finally came out six minutes later, victorious. Hollis set his timer and strutted into the bar area. He was back very quickly - 45 seconds in, a man talked to him. Fifteen seconds later, a female said hi and touched his arm. He said hi back, felt victorious, and returned. I'm so proud of him :)

One of the bands that opened, Feverclub, played a number that they wanted us to slow dance along to. Hollis and I were happy to oblige.

After the song, the lead singer pointed to us in the crowd when she was thanking people (us) for dancing. We later went up to the band in their booth to tell them we liked their show. They totally remembered us. Said we were awesome. :)
