I have LOADS to write about, and this is the first chance i've gotten to write up what's been happening in the past week, so apologies for the longness of the whole thing.
So, last Saturday my parents were away in Rome, so of course there was going to be a house party. But before that it was Concept Of Hate's (Ben, Joshy, Kirmy and Alex) first EVER gig at The Shed! So I was going to support them! WE LOVE YOU KIRSTY! Hehehe! They were really good. Joshy looked so nervous all the way through, and Kirsty looked nervous until she was on stage. Hehe, but yeah they were good. Might need to think about getting a new backing singer though. (No offense Alex, you're an amazing bassist - just not so good at the whole singing dealy.)
Anyway, I invited Jamie, Nicola, Zoe, Loe, Gough, Rachael and Gav to the house party. We were all just messing around and drinking randomly. Then me and Nix went and sat in my sisters room with my cats because she didn't feel well and the nexy thing I knew, Jamie and Zoe had gone out to find Lewis and Helen who had decided that they wanted to come to the party too.
Nix still wasn't feeling so good so I decided to walk her home, Rachael came with us and on the way back we made up a song about what we were going to drink when we got home. (It was something like: Vodka! And coke! And coke! And coke! And coke.. etc etc) Then FINALLY Jamie, Zoe, Lewis and Helen showed up, and I remember falling over and getting carpet burn on my arm hehe.
Then a lot of people threw up from drinking too much. Including me, Gough, Rachael, Jamie and for some reason Lewis who hadn't even drank that much. Loe and Gav had collapsed in my sisters room and were asleep, so me, Jamie, Lewis, Helen, Zoe, Rachael and Gough all piled into my room and started talking about random crap and singing stupid songs. This is a song we made up:
Jamie's foot has got it going on
Jamie's foot has got it going on
Jamie can I come with you after school?
We can hang around and hang by the pool
Did your foot get back from it's businness trip?
Is it there, or is it trying to give me the slip
I'm not the little boy that I used to be
I'm all about feet now
Jamie can't you see
Jamie's foot has got it going on
Jamie's foot has got it going on
Jamie can't you see
You're just not the boy for me
I know it might be wrong but
I'm in love with Jamie's foot
Jamie do you remember when I mowed your lawn?
Your foot came out with just a sock on
I could tell it liked me from the way it stared
And the way it said, you missed a spot over there
... Uhh... Yeah, we were really drunk!! We played some random spin the bottle games, and then me and Jamie decided to go out for a walk. (It was 5 in the morning, and raining, but meh.) We didn't stay out for long and when we got back we discovered that Gough was asleep under my bed, Rach and Helen were asleep on the floor and Zoe and Lewis had taken over my bed, so me and Jamie claimed my bed back and we all fell asleep. Then in the morning I woke up and was really sore so I went downstairs and fell asleep on the sofa.
After my bacon sandwich, some other people came down and then everyone ended up leaving apart from Jamie and Gough. We watched a film (MST3K! WOO!) then decided we should get going because we were going to a gig later that day. We walked up to Gough's house and then we stayed there for a bit before realising we were gonna miss the bus, so we had to run for it hehe.
When we got in town we realised that the sweet shop was closed and I couldn't buy any peardrops!! NOOOO! So we went around to random places until I found some, then we bought a disposable camera and some random glow sticks, hehehe. We found some guy that had gotten kicked out of Oxford, he came to KFC with us, then (even though it was like 4:30 and the doors for the gig opened at 8) we decided to go hang around the venue.
(Just a sec, let's get some things straight.)
Andy - Drummer - My Awesome Compilation
Darius - Bassist - M.A.C
Woody - Keyboardist - M.A.C
Chris - Lead singer - M.A.C
Danni Mccormack - Mel from My Parents Are Aliens
Agent M - Lead singer - Tsunami Bomb
As we were rounding the corner, we noticed a blue van outside The Charlotte. Suddenly two guys got out of it and I immediately gasped and was all: "HOLY COW! IT'S ANDY AND WOODY FROM MY AWESOME COMPILATION!!!" Then I shut up and we all went and stood by them like, yeah we're cool.
Andy noticed us and we started chatting to him, he's really sweet. He remembered us from the last time we had seen him and he'd heard about me having to go to hospital after the gig! Then he had one of my peardrops and we sat down watching everyone load stuff into the venue, then Darius walked by and we spoke to him for a bit. He remembered me from last time because I gave him a peardrop and he almost choked on it (AWWWWWWWWWWH!!!!)
After a while we remembered our camera, so when Andy walked by again we grabbed him and got a photo with him. (His girlfriend took the picture, kudos to her, she's really pretty) Then when Darius walked by, we asked for a picture and he told us to hold on and went and got Woody so we could have one with him too! Then Gough needed to go to the toilet so he went off, making us promise not to get any more pictures without him, but as soon as he rounded the corner, Agent M turned up!! So to be fair on Gough, we got a picture of her on her own hehe.
After waiting for ages, it began to rain. And I don't mean drizzle, it was pouring! And there was thunder and lightning and stuff! We were all freezing and getting soaked! Then Andy walked by with his girlfriend and an umbrella, he looked really sympathetically at us, disappeared inside and came out with an umbrella for us!! ANDY FROM MY AWESOME COMPILATION GAVE US AN UMBRELLA!! We got loads of photo's of us posing with this umbrella, hehehe.
After waiting for absolutely AGES people started showing up and eventually we were allowed in! Yay! We got to the front (of course) and after a while the starting singer was on stage. We knew it was to be some acoustic lady, and it was a woman singing, with a guy behind her with an acoustic guitar. This woman was so pretty, and I couldn't help thinking i'd seen her before. She took one of my glowsticks and Tasha suddenly realised that she was Danni Mccormack! Mel from My Parents Are Aliens! But we weren't sure so at the end of her set, I asked her, and she said she was!
As My Awesome Compilation were setting up we noticed Danni had left her bracelet and set list on the stage, so Gough grabbed the bracelet and I grabbed the set list. Then Andy walked on and I was like "ANDY! THANKS FOR THE UMBRELLA!" And we gave it back to him and all the audience were like O_O! Then I asked him if I could have a drumstick and he was like "Of course!"
My Awesome Compilation were AMAZING. Even better than the first time i'd seen them. No lie. We got loads of pictures of them, we got a picture of Darius jumping off the wall and everything!! They were FANTASTIC. Everyone, buy their album and go see them NOW! They are BRIIILLIANT!
After they'd finished playing, Danni came back on stage and we suddenly realised that she was looking for her bracelet, so we (being the nice people we are) gave it back to her, and she gave us all hugs and came down into the audience so she could have her photo with us! She is seriously one of the nicest people I have ever met!
Andy gave me a drumstick, then someone else asked for one and he was like "Er.. no! Sorry!! Only had one!" It was insanely funny!!
Then Hopesfall began setting up, but they'd lost their lead singer, so the guitarist was on the mic going "LEAD SINGER OF HOPESFALL TO THE STAGE PLEASE! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!?" Then the guy got there and it was obvious straight away that he was PISSED. He could barely stand upright, and you could hardly hear him singing. I didn't really like them that much, the lead singer screamed one of the songs in my face and I just started laughing about how insane the situation was. And he kept standing on the bar and standing on my arms! So I played drums on his shoe with my newly aquired drumstick thank you Andy!!
When Tsunami Bomb were setting up, we spied M.A.C and Danni in the bar, so we made our way to the back and started chatting to them again. Have to say, Woody and Danni looked very close when they were talking! Get in there Woody!! Gough and Tasha went to get some photo's, whilst me and Jamie stayed back with Danni, then we had to leave but it was a fucking amazing night!
MY AWESOME COMPILATION RULE!!
