Orgy - Act II
So the Springfield show was just as awesome! Me, Corrie, Dana, and Laura all headed up yesterday afternoon to NOVA. The drive was hilarious...Corrie kept getting honked at by truck drivers. Two words: trucker radio. We're convinced the one driver in the food truck was calling ahead to the other guys and telling them to honk at us...got kinda freaky after awhile, lmao. Then, soon after, Corrie took a bug in the mouth and proceeded to spit on my car, LMAO...I didn't notice, so I look over and just see her frantically pouring water down the side of my car while we're on the interstate...
We got to the show, got set up with everything, and watched the opening acts. All four of them...definately got your money's worth out of this show. 51 Peg was one of the opening bands and they did a fabulous job...they were all very cool, too, and their manager Elise is totally great. Me and Corrie also met some very cool people during the openers...Bubbalicious from the Julien-K message board found me, and we talked to some other really awesome people throughout the night...I love how friendly everyone has been at these shows.
Then finally Orgy took the stage and it was amazing, as always. I was able to get some good pictures again, so (once they're approved) I'll have those up on D1 soon.
But the best part by far was after the show. We hung out near the bus with a smallish group of other fans and all the guys came out...no joke, we talked to them for at least an hour. We first talked to Paige, and he was totally awesome...he and Corrie were totally hitting it off...it was cute...and so me and her got our pictures taken with him.

Then we talked to Bobby briefly, and then Ryan. I have to say at this moment Ryan is the coolest dude...he was so friendly and I swear me and him talked for like 20 minutes about all sorts of stuff...Julien-K, setting up an interview, him teasing Amir, Lance getting him an X-Box...it was fantastic. So yeah, need to get back in touch with Lou about setting that up again...I really can't wait. And again, me and Corrie got pictures, and I actually don't look twelve in this one:

Then right as we were thinking about leaving, Jay came out and we talked to him quickly, and the last picture of the evening:

So yeah...quiet ride home, just getting in as the sun was coming up. And I'm thinking I might hit the NC show tomorrow after all.
