So life continues on just as it did before the concert. I'm still a little overwhelmed at that whole day. The sun, the heat, and the wait beforehand all seemed unbearable until the meet and greet. Then they were -there- and they were real. Everything from the telly and the monitor was standing and talking and wasn't just a picture anymore. I wihs I hadn't have been so nervous (I had to sit down twice or risk fainting) because I never got the chance to go and talk to Jade. My new buddy Xine got his signature on my poster for me though. I have to say I really like Adam and Hunter a lot more, now. Adam's a total goofball and Hunter has a nice speaking voice.

I can't wait for them to come back to Denver for another concert, even if I don't get to meet them again, because they were such a treat to listen to live.

There is so much more to AFI's music than the melody and the lyrics. Its the pull of the community that their songs create. There were easily five-hundred people at the venue that night and I walked away with the sweat of at least half of them on me, and I've never been happier. I know, its gross sounding, but in the middle of a song where everyone is singing, jumping, and pushing against you.. it really felt like I was part of something a lot bigger than me.
