Everclear Concert
Oct.8
Pipeline Cafe
Well this was my first concert for the year and while Everclear totally rocked, the venue was a little lackluster. Bad acoustics made things hard to understand (I love loud rock music but it has to make a little bit of sense. It’s a good thing I knew most of the words) plus it was sticky everywhere you went on the main floor (I hate to guess what the heck I was stepping on). ;)
Anyways we got there a little after 8 pm, had a little encounter with security before we got through the door (who thought I was inebriated. Actually I just got back from an all day hike so I was tired & sore most of the day) but I must say the place was packed with hotties (always a good thing) which meant that this must be the place to be that night. We didn’t catch the name of the opening act but they we’re local and had a pretty good beat but when they stopped we had to wait another 30 minutes for Alexakis & Co. to start. Once they came out it was all good.
We we’re about midway to the stage so we got pretty close to the action without actually having getting caught up in it. It was hot, crowded (Yes Spydy free feelage was abound. Couldn’t avoid it really. :) ) , and pretty wild (crowd surfing and mini-mosh pit activity resulted in quite a few people getting the boot during show). They played a good selection of their songs (I think all of their hits but AM Radio & So Much for The Afterglow) and pretty much was high energy from start to finish. Art even did a comedy skit in the middle of the concert.
We left right before the start of the second encore (those bastards!). Overall it was very good concert and fun was had by all (except for the guys that got kicked out).
