I Am In Love With Karnivool

We went to a concert on Friday and I was thinking I only like 1 band out of the 4 playing but I will have to stay through 2 shitty bands to get to see them. The arena was crappy too, I hate Revolutions! Anyways, the show was supposed to start at 7pm door open at 6pm and it was raining. So we get there at 7:30 and no one was in the door yet. Finally we go in at 8:15pm. I had to return my umbrella to the car because they wouldn't let me take it in. I could use it as a weapon. We wait about another 30mins and the first band comes on start. OMG, I was in love.


The lead singer is something out of this world. I have never seen someone sing with such passion for his music. He was so fascinated by the moshing that he stopped singing for a second. When a band can appreciate the audience like that, ahhh I am in love. So they do about 5 or 6 songs and go off stage. They were so good. Ian Kenny's (lead singer I am in love with - Ian is the one in the sunglasses above - he is not really my type but he will be for the next few days or months) voice is so beautiful and he is a great performer.

Later that night, when the head liner (nonpoint) was playing, I went to the back so I could get a better view of the band. When I came back to my spot, I saw Ian standing there, next to my boyfriend. I couldn't believe it, he was right next to me, my love. So I tapped him on the shoulder and gave him a thumb up and he put his hands together in a praying position and then put out his hand for a shake. OMG!!! I shook his hands and he then pointed at the mosh pit and shook his head, I smiled and nodded yes. We were standing next to the speakers, so me talking wouldn't have mattered, plus I later found out he was wearing ear plugs.

He was so down to earth. He stood next to me for a while just watching the mosh pit (we had the best view)

The guy next to me was such a jerk. He kept smoking and then throwing his cigarette butts into the mosh pit. He also drank about 10 to 15 beers. He would drink until the cup is almost empty, then he would fling his cup with the rest of the beer into the mosh pit.

The mosh pit was a fucking zoo, full of crazy animals. I wouldn't have made it and I am happy I didn't go into the mosh because of the asshole next to me. I would have gotten my hair all stinky from beer or burnt from his cigarette butt.

I am so in love with Ian Kenny, to Love him is to see him play! I am getting the album and listening non stop until my crush dies down.
