This Aint No Picnic- Angelas P.O.V.
The day started out sucky but it blossomed into a spectacular day!(some might disagree) Shuadee and Rosemary were
suppose to arrive at my house at like 6 am. We wanted to get there really early to go backstage or something, I forgot.
Suprisingly Shuadee came first to my house, and then rosemary was all late and I was like roooar. When Rosemary came we
left, got lost, and finally got there. They were still setting up and we were the first people there. The door to backstage was
open, so we just walked in and looked around. It was in this amusment park/park/desert. Shuadee had to go to the b room
so I waited fo her and then rosemary?s like ?angela come here!? and I promised I wouldn?t leave shuadee in those porter
potties, so I waited for her. As soon as she was done we ran over to where rosemary was and it was Jim Adkins, and his wife
amy, carrying their baby Jackson or something. Oh lordie, I was going crazy and rosemarys like simmer down. I gave him
the simpsons poster I brought for them. I took some pics, and we let them do their thing, so we walked some more around
backstage. Rosemary had some free breakfast, and for about a 30 mins we were asking everyone for backstage passes
(guards were gonna start checking if ppl had them or not). This mean guy, as me and roar know as TSOL, kept telling us to sit
in one spot bc we were annoying. Yes, we also met Zach. He was ? eating a bagel.
We were sitting around when rosemary spotted Tom. He looked perturbed because he just woke up. He was probably the
nicest guy. He was very talkative. Rosemary asked if she could pretend she was her cousin and he?s like sure. We hung out
some more and decided to get some yellow wristbands by saying rosemary was toms cousin. So we walked back out to the
front and pretended we were on Tom?s guest list, and surprisingly they bought it. So we officially got backstage passes. Soon
after we got backstage, we got kicked out bc jew?s tour manager or someone said we were stalking the guys, and were
suspicious of how we got wristbands. The mean guy led us to the entrance of backstage and told us to take off our wristbands
but they wouldn?t come off. How embarrassing. The rest of the day was quite boring. We spend most of our time catching
guppies from the gross pond. We spotted jew walking around and chekicng out the bands. We were scared of Reuben?s
accomplice because we took one of their wristbands. We saw har mar superstar, a really really gay (literally) popstar doode.
Later on we got ready for jew so while guided by voices was playing, we found ourselves some nice spots right in front of the
stage where jew would be playing. Bob from gbv sang with jew, game of pricks (jew covered song off gbv). We then saw a
great jew show. We left the concert after the played, and decided to go back in with my extra tickets. We got backstage and
were REALLY scared of TSOL guy finding us. We crept in the shadows. Rosemary took a funny picture of jim, and I took a
funny picture of rosemary and har mar. then, finally the day was over. Little did we know, that very same TSOL guy would be
at our next big adventure! (and then he was shot at the House of Blues!)
This is the very nice and friendly Charlie!
No this isnt Carson Daly, but its Angela and
Tom (guitarist of JEW). Tom just woke up
he looks really out of it. So Angela, what
were you staring at on his face?
Jim (singer of JEW) with Angela. She was
very pip.
RoseMary was daring enough to take a
picture with Har Mar Superstar. You'll
understand if u see him live.
