Creating New Habits

I hate and love hectic days the test is always interesting, the stress though, sucks.

Got of work early yesterday drove back to my appartment and hit the shower and then went directly to the high-way, thumb up.
I managed to get a ride half-way to the ferry and then had to try my luck again, not as lucky it seemed, I walked perhaps 2 clicks before someone pulled over and picked me up, that someone turned out to be my old neighbor C, It was great seeing her again before she heads of to Australia, safe to say I got to the ferry in time.

In Vancouver was the next gamble, buying tickets in advance is for people with less faith than me. So that was the first thing to do, get myself a ticket to the show just 3 hours later. It was easy, there seemed to be a lot of seats and space left on the floor. Got my ticket and went to find somewhere to sleep, I had booked space in a hostel, but when I got there there was no reservation in my name. Apparently the gal taking my reservation had trouble understanding me when I spelled the name for her over the phone. Well I got a bed to sleep in at the end so not to bad.

At 06PM I was outside GM Place and managed to smuggle my camera inside even though the guard found it... she found it and asked if it was my phone before she managed to find the entrance to the pocket it was it. I said yes and was saved by the bell.



At 0630PM Econoline Crush was the first band out warming up the crowd, doing their last show with 3DD since Vancouver is their home town. I remember 2 songs from them really well, the song for the ladies "Dirty" and "Sparkle and Shine". They did a good job and the promise of more from the bigger band looked super promising.


Next out was Hinder, I think everyone have heard a song or two from them, I'd only heard their biggest hit "Lips of an Angel" and Well what can I say, they made the arena rock, and I began losing my voice halfway through their performance. However their best song was clearly "Get stoned" when getting to the Chorus everyone sang with them "Go home, Get stoned" and most people did as told, but in reversed order, got stoned and went home when the concert was over. Weed is no big deal here in BC and mostly "legal".

Anyone See what the mic stand is dressed in?

Next up was Stained, now if Hinder was Rocking Staind whipped the floor with them, they knew how to put up a performance and how to get the crowd going. They performed their big hits "Belive", "Outside" and "Right here " they were awsome and I feelt there and then even before the big band had started to play that my throat will hate me tomorrow, and I was Right.


Finally 3 Doors Down entred the stage and they opened up with thiere greatest song ever and then just keept up going full speed ahead. They were the 3 Doors Down you hear on the radio and much, much more.
 

I had gotten there at 0600 PM and left at 1100PM give or take 15 minutes, it rained like hell and the 20 minute walk back to the hostel was less plesant than the walk to the show, still you don't ruin great moods like mine, there and then, In an instant, I walked throught the pissing rain with a big smile on my face.
