Thankfully, Rosemary told me about the lit concert the day before.  Even though I was feeling a bit woozy, I decided to go.  Lori came
too, and was super pip, it was her first concert.  Shaudee met us there when the 2nd opening band was playing.  What a peculiar band!
They played all these covers, and snazzed them up.  Rosemary was planning all these elaborate plans to get backstage (a shaved head
man, the most intimidating of people, was guarding the only door) including one of us ?breaking our leg? and hoping to receive first aid
backstage or being a part of the make a wish foundation.  None of them were followed through.  After the opening bands played, we all
found a not so cozy spot? surrounded by seriously obese people.  It got worse, comfort-wise. When Lit played we dodged the obese and
got right in front of the stage.  We could barely move our arms. It got worse when people started bashing into each other, stepping on
feet, and releasing body odor.  Shoddy and I, considering our weak bodies, found ourselves being thrown around like balloons.  It was
fun though, we all pushed back.  We all agreed that Ajay looked like wolverine with those huge sideburns. I think he really wants to be a
guitarist, because he always pretends he?s playing one. Jeremy has a lot of admirers, with his cool braided beard, eyeliner and all. They
played a lot of old, current, and new songs including my favorite, Miserable. ?Why should I care if you knew me?? After Lit finished, we
all were eager to meet them.  The problem was we didn?t know where they would be. Thanks to Soddy?s idea, we left the building and
found another entrance to backstage from outside.  Rosemary casually walked past the guard and we followed.  We were really surprised
at how easy it was to get backstage when the whole time we were wondering how to get past the guard.  We passed a corner and saw the
band in this hip red room. No one would understand how long I waited to meet them. Rosemary actually bought me a poster that they
signed to Kim. Anywhoo, we slowly entered the room and introduced ourselves to the band.  They were all really nice.  We gave Ajay
our Sheep Mafia card and told him to visit and sign the guestbook? anytime now guys.  I would love to say we got to hang with them for
a long time and have a party at their houses, but? no.  So we hung out on the stage for awhile, getting anything that we could: geetar pics,
set lists, water bottles, used shirts?  Lori was really freaking out at all that had happened.  She was really excited. Lucky her, her first
concert experience was great.  We went to the bar upstairs because we didn?t want the fun to end.  Here the band was mingling with
other pretty people, including Kerry King, guitarist of Slayer? or we thought it was him, we were never really sure.  Rosemary recognized
him from his awesome tattoo on his head.  Being bald and all, we expected him to be mean, but he was witty and nice.  At this time, we
passed out sheep mafia cards to the rest of the band except Allen, the drummer. That is the end of our story. Indeed, Sheep Mafia has
struck again.
