The most spontaneous concert ever
Yesterday I was laying outside on a bench cause it was so warm and nice and I saw this guy walking towards me..he said "it's a gorgeous day!" and we introduced ourselves. Then he suddenly said "so how long have you known Jesus?" and I was like "uhh..I dunno" and he asked if I was born again and I said yes. He told me there was a church nearby and asked me if I wanted to go with him. I declined by saying I'd be too busy. He wanted me to meet his wife and apparently left to go get her but I didn't want to get involved so I went back to Dana's apartment. A guy I don't even know inviting me to church with him..yeaah not weird or creepy at all..
After Dana got back from her class we had to go to her brother Dylan's apartment cause we needed to print out the tickets..he doesn't have internet so we had to bring the printer back to Dana's apartment. Dylan is nice and funny hehe. We ate dinner at Hard Rock Cafe (woo!). It wasn't busy so we were seated immediately. We got our food fast too. After dinner I got a couple shirts and a pin. Then we drove back to where the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert was held (there was a lot of traffic..eesh)
This was the most seizure inducing TSO concert yet. Their stage lights are AMAZING. Security was not tight at all..they just shined a flashlight in your bag. In Dallas you had to go through metal detectors and if you had a camera they took it away. So for the first time I was able to take pictures!! Yay! It felt odd hearing songs with snow and stuff in San Diego haha. They opened with Night Enchanted (their version of Dies Irae). Wowww. They kept playing boring slow songs during the Christmas part (though I LOVE An Angel Returned). Even though they played the same songs I think they changed it up..they're such a creative band. They do stuff with stage lights and fire I didn't even know you could do. And the two violinists switched their stick..things by tossing them to each other and catching them! Woww..I wonder how much practice that took. They played some songs from their new album during the second half. They played their version of In the Hall of the Mountain King by Edvard Grieg..I LOVEE that song. Their stage lights moved SO fast. They got political with some songs too..the screens were flashing images of Obama and the news and stuff. I like the girl who sings Queen of the Winter Night better with the group that comes to Dallas. I think they ended with Wizards in Winter. They win for their creativity haha. After the concert we hung out with Dylan and Phil (Dana's fiance) a little..she drove Dylan home and then we went to bed
Indra. Awwwe. She's so mean though haha

I was glad when he stood in front of the light cause when he didn't it shined right in my face :P
Indra loves boxes hehe

That is a pretty crazy-freaky light display. I'd probably be blinded by it, glad you had fun :)
