yes, they have a full bar at the ryman. and some snack foods at a separate concession desk. and it's walking distance from some restaurants if you want to grab something before the show.

hey all - you know who was also great? secret machines. of course the kings rocked, and surprised me with some new arrangements for a lot of songs. i liked the new "razz the kid" arrangement a lot - it was so much fuller.
how does everyone in america know the words to "sucker"? i guess they all downloaded it?

SECRET MACHINES WERE THE BIGGEST PIECES OF SHIT I EVER SAW, MOST EVERYONE IN THE RYMAN WAS IN THE LOBBY WAITING ON THOSE LOSERS TO GET OFF STAGE!!!

we were sitting next to a couple from Cali who came all this way to see the tour in Asheville and Nashville and they waited in the lobby for the SM to be over. I was thinking I would have liked them better if I had smoked some herb.

Yep, I listened to a few SM's songs out of curoisity b4 the shows I saw last week. That said, I knew that herb would make them way more entertaining live...they had good light effects

hey, I was at the show last night. I'll write a more in depth review when I get home -- and post all of the pics and vidoes that I took. some of them came out ok, other's didn't. the lights made things kind of complicated. anyway, I have most of velvet snow on video, along with clips from milk and spiral staircase (cause matthew was doing some really funny stuff).
I thought the secret machines were ok, I bought their cd right before I came, but I haven't listened to it much so I didn't really know the names of the songs. the last one was the best, in my opinion. but that's just cause they got into it, I thought the beginning of the set was kind of boring. It's just clearly a different kind of music. Not high energy enough for me, though. and it was pretty obvious that 99% of the crowd was there to see kol, I felt kind of bad for them really - a lot of people left to go buy tshirts and beer during their set.
but the kings were AMAZING -- best show of theirs I've seen by far. the last time I saw them, it took a while for them to get into it, but last night, they were feeling it from the moment they kicked off with molly's chamber. I was really happy for them, cause I know that packing the ryman must have given them a great feeling. and it seemed like the crowd - which was relatively mixed, some young, some old -- knew most of the words and were dancing like crazy. at least, the people around me were. jared had a giddy smile on the whole time, and matthew seemed particularly excited. they all looked great. It's hard to remember, cause the show is just one big blur, but some of my favorites of the night were trani (of course), head to toe, four kicks, red morning light and rememo (first time to hear it live).
my videos and pics should be up tmrw night.

Okay so I got my pass from Nacho and I literally got backstage at the Ryman. I was in their dressing room talking to their family and friends and the Kings. Nacho introduced me to his parents before the show, and I met Jared, Caleb and Nathan's mom. She is gorgeous, I see where they get their looks from. To give you an idea Jared looks the most like her. The show was amazing. The Secret Machines rocked my whole world. I was so stoked that the Kings played Red Morning Light like they did in Asheville, I was beginning to think I wasn't gonna get to see it live. I talked to the SM a lot at the after party, except the drummer. I didn't try to bug the Kings' at the party cause they had friends and family there. I did talk to everyone but Matt for a minute. I literally bumped into Jared going to get a drink, we started talking and when we tried to shake hands he accidentally stuck his hand in my cup it was cute and we laughed. Caleb groped my thigh on accident, we were standing with our backs to each other and he lost his balance and reached back and his hand like slipped up my skirt. He turned and winked and goes I am not gonna apologize cause I liked what I felt. What a rock star! I just talked to Nathan about stuff we had talked about at the two other parties. I thanked Nacho when we were leaving and told him I would see him at some of the college tour dates. His parents were so cute, they hugged me bye before they left and I talked to them for a while at the party. I was walking towards the bar and his dad came up to me and asked me to go with him. He took me over to the guys mom and goes this is my Missouri girlfriend, don't tell my wife and I introduced myself to her and talked to her for a minute. It was so cool to see them with their friends and family, especially their mom. Amazing after party and show. I talked to the sound guys and road guys a lot, they are great guys had some good conversations. I talked to Helio Sequence drummer for a while, their video is gonna be on Subterranian next week by the way! They really are nice guys cause they don't have to be as great to the fans as they are and it was so cool, I think Nathan and Jared were the only ones that actually recognized besides Nacho. He was so great. As we were leaving the club to get a cab Jared thanked us for coming and said he hoped to see us at more shows and I said he definitely would. Either him or Matt have an amazing early 80's red corvette that they pulled out in. I know that was long sorry, I was just gonna give a brief summary but it was such a great night and great end to the tour and show and weekend for me.
