Open the past and present now and we are there

Words could not express how much I adore and cherish these men. Nimrod was the first album I listened to and I fell in love. During elementary school, I thought that I would never get the chance to experience them, ever. Now, seven years ago I've been fortunate enough to have experienced this epic band four times.

Three out of those four times I've been lucky enough to have been in the pit front and center with my boys. Twice with my best friend in the world, Mom.

On August 31, 2010, I was able to experience TWO of my all time favorite Green Day songs: Scattered & Paper Lanterns. I never thought I'd get to hear such rarities live in my lifetime.

I don't think I'll ever love a band as much as I do with Green Day. I've met so many wonderful people through their music, they've been the soundtrack to my high school years, and their lyrics have helped me some of my roughest times. ♥

"Now I cannot speak, I lost my voice
I'm speechless and redundant
'Cause I love you's not enough
I'm lost for words . . ."

Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio?

Green Day has finally announced the start of the North America Summer tour!!! They kick it off on August 3 in New Jersey and they're planning to play outside arenas this time around so we'll definitely receive fireworks at the end :)

I'm incredibly thankful that I know when dates will get closer to Cali and I KNOW how much to save up now! This is wonderful! I had been aching to go to a show but now this will pretty much make me stingy with my money. I want to have enough cash to hopefully hit three shows. I know I said earlier that I wanted to hit all of the Cali dates but I don't think I was being realistic. So, I know I'm definitely be attending San Diego and Los Angeles. I'm more than positive my Mom will be okay with it. Besides, she might want to come with me this time around. After all, she does enjoy Green Day's stage performances.

OMG and I have to notify my best friend of this news immediately! I must take her to a show with me since she hasn't been able to witness the amazingness Green Day gives off during their lives. Ahh, this is such exciting news that my heart is bursting with joy!

Hopefully there isn't a major band that tours close to LA this time around I wont feel tempted like I did with Dir en grey which I had to pass up either way. Although I'm missing them dearly too.

I swear I'm addicted to concerts. I told my friend that it was like a drug to me and I was addicted. I should probably go to rehab or something. Actually not really 'cause I still want to continue attending gigs. But at least it's a HEALTHY drug! And the adrenaline rush is amaaaaaaaaazing. It's euphoric!

My goodness I probably sound like a mad hippie! I suppose I'll stop rambling now.
