I went to Lobsterfest!
Jun. 3rd, 2006 10:36 pmI just got back from Lobsterfest. I decided to go, I'm so glad. Often times I would just not go because I had no one to go with (I did ask a few people from school if they were going and they said no) but I was in the mood to do something and have been feeling sort of social and stuff lately now that I am feeling better.
I wasn't sure where it was so I drove around where I THOUGHT it was first...sure enough, there it was. I was disappointed with the turn out, there were probably about 100-150 people there total. Considering all the bands they had to pay to play, that is really shitty. I had to drive back around for parking and had to drive down the major party street in town and there was a party at every house, it was dumb. All these drunken lame asses when there's free live good music 2 blocks away.
I got there in time to see the last 2 and a half songs Saturday Looks Good to Me played and then as I was sitting there by my lonesome I saw a familiar face walk by, a guy from my department (Joe) , someone I hadn't thought to ask. He was there alone too, so I went and sat with him and he seemed glad to not have to be alone as well, so it worked out well. Soon after that, Owen, pictured here for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
plathgirl41, came on. He was cool, he was having some technical troubles and stopped mid-song often to just ramble to the crowd and stopped for a lengthy time to tell jokes. After he went on Matt Pond PA came on, we didn't have to wait too long. They were pretty good, but as I always felt about them, there's nothing special drawing me in, it's just sort of generic, but decent, rock music. Matt Pond himself seemed like a bit of a jerk as well.
I am glad I went, it was so easy to get to and convenient and I was home before 10pm, I gotta love a concert that gets me home before 10pm...hah, I'm a square.
