^ Yeah they sung Notion!! That went down really well! But not many people knew the songs they played off ASH and YAYM which was a shame!! Still, I had fun singing every word to all their songs! |

ohhhhhhh yeah. suprisingly though, in melbourne alot of the fans knew their old stuff. when they played king of the rodeo the crowd went craaaaaaaaaaaazy!
the song song a few people had doubts with was wasted time, but overall the crowd was pretty awesome.

Okay. I read georgie's post so I'll just try and fill in a few details and clear things up. Unfortunately I didn't get time to post on here last night since I had to go to bed then had to bail for uni early this morning only to head straight from uni to their other show tonight.
First, let me just say they did NOT play Joe's Head. I think Georgie got a bit overexcited and made that up. But they did play California Waiting which made me unbelievably happy.
Umm... I'm trying hard to think of things to add but my brain is failing me due to lack of sleep etc. Like Georgie said one of the things Caleb talked about was having read online that someone stood up and the people behind them told them to sit down - I thought this might have been Annie is a prayin' but I suppose we'll never know for sure.
Last night was a lot of fun but I would say tonight's show was even better. The only thing that disappointed me was that the chick next to me on the barrier didn't sing along to anything. She might have sung to Sex on Fire but I didn't turn around to look and likewise the people behind me didn't seem to know too many songs. That said I was also near a few people who were nuts.
The energy at tonight's show was intense. Caleb got everyone pretty excited by telling them the people last night were silly and didn't stand up and that it was a rock and roll concert so why was everyone sitting. Needless to say after that just about everyone stood up. People responded to the new material really well but at the same time the old stuff got a lot of support to.
Highlight of the night would have to be when Caleb announced they were going to play a song that they hadn't played in a few years and that we should forgive them if they made mistakes. The song was Red Morning Light. Basically we (Georgie and I) went nuts.
Everyone who we hung out with today was lovely. We made some great friends in the queue so we ensured that we all got good spots and all that jazz. We were on the barrier again - this time in front of Matt as opposed to Jared.
Ooh another interesting thing that happened. Caleb left the stage and Jared took to the mic (which surprised me immensely) - he said something along the lines of 'You guys have made Caleb really excited. So excited he has to go off stage and puke but he'll be back". Very Funny.
And another highlight (I just remembered) they played something new!! They played the instrumental part on the Wednesday night as well but tonight Caleb sang some lyrics (possibly off the top of his head. Its hard to tell). Fortunately georgie filmed it so I'm sure she'll post it for everyone. It was to die for. I was ridiculously excited.
Anyway this is getting very, very long and I have done an awful job of explaining how the concert unfolded. I will probably write something far more coherent tomorrow when I have nothing to do at work. I got a drumstick. Its split at the top which I thought was cool. And I also got one of Matt's picks. Fuck yeah.
We waited at the drive ways to see if we could meet the band. Unfortunately they didn't stop to say hi... We saw Nathan and Jessie leave together. Then in another car we saw Jared (who turned and smiled and waved to everyone which I thought was really nice), and Lily in another car (I assume Caleb and Alyssa were in that car too but I couldn't see them from my side). Some other people we spoke to said they saw Matt leaving and that he waved to them so yeah. This was all within an hour of the concert ending or so. We left at about 12:30am so I'd say to others going to other shows if you've got an hour or two to spare might as well wait it out.
I'll just post a quick setlist from what I can recall. This is definitely not in the right order. They opened with Closer then Crawl and they finished with Black Thumbnail.

King of the Rodeo
California Waiting
Red Morning Light
Molly's Chambers
Wasted Time
Four Kicks
The Bucket
Slow Night, So Long
Taper Jean Girl

 Us with Nacho. I don't look fantastic but still a photos a photo. Can I just say Nacho is adorable! He's a pretty short guy but he has this really deep voice and that Southern drawl. What can I say. I loved him. He was so drunk haha. Us: Hey can we have a photo? Nacho: Yeah, sure *photo is taken* Nacho: What are you guys up to? Us: Nothing Nacho: Well, I don't know about you but I'm pretty drunk. Us: Yeah... We're not really. Nacho: Well we're all havin a party if you want to come in. Us: Yeah cool. Then we followed him to the curtained off section of the bar, he disappears behind the curtain and then the security are like you can't go in you don't have a wristband. Twas a shame but still... Amusing. |

Ah like, no one knew King Of The Rodeo! no one was jumping around or anything!! I was like !!!! I was so pissed the people around me knew none of the words either, except to SOF of course! I made a point of singing rather loudly in their ears... Would someone mind reposting that Caleb going backstage link for me? |
