FOR ANYONE WHO'S INTERESTED:
[ I posted too many pics, so just click the links, they won't let me post them all.
And I have like 150 more, ahah]
Okay. So on November 9th, 2006, I went with Sarah, Tanya, Sarah's sister and a bunch of her friends to the TEDDY GEIGER CONCERT here in Ottawa. It was freaking amazing. Best night of my life, by far.
We started out walking home from school together freaking. Ahah, we get home, and do our hair, make-up, change, eat pizza, and then it's go time.
So we get into the car, and I was like crap, I don't have his CD in the car, so I was hoping we could hear him on the radio. So we turn on the radio, and I'm frantically flipping stations, listening for him. We finally hear him singing For You I Will (Confidence). It ends up that it was LIVE and we listened to a whole interview, and a performance of Confidence and These Walls. It was so good. And the DJ was like:
-Underage thinking would make a GREAT Chrismas gift, wouldn't it?
And then Teddy was like:
-Yeah, I guess it would! ....
We were like AWWWW!
THEN WE GOT THERE.
So when we got out of the car we saw a tour bus. We're like HOLY CRAP is that his?! So we wait outside it, and what do you know? We see Teddy walking from across the street and into the bus. Haha. So we wait outside it for a bit. Then we realize that we should go before the line got too big. In line, we met up with Kate and Brianna, and we hung out with them when we got inside.

Yes, I changed my shirt to the black one after a while, ahah.
The first time we saw the stage, we FREAKED out about how close we were. Even though we were like, right in the back, we had an AMAZING view.

So then, we see the merch booth. The guy definitley hated me. I was very indecisive about my shirt, I must have gone back and forth exchanging shirts 6 times. So then, about a half hour later, Theresa Sokyrka comes on for the opening.

She was pretty good. Her set was about 8 songs, she has a pretty great voice.
After she was done, there was an annoying 20 minute break where me and my friends were of course like spazzing. After that, a woman from 1053 KISS FM came onto the stage, and she announced that we wouldn't have to wait any longer. The scream that followed definitley broke the sound barrier. Wow.
Teddy came right out, and took a seat as his piano. OH MY GOODNESS, HE'S A GOD.

So he played 2 songs on the piano, which were AMAZING. He's so much better live than I ever thought he could be.

After his piano performances, he came out to the microphone and talked a bit. It's too mad, but he kinda mumbled. We didn't understand him too well.
So yeah, he came to the guitar and he played a few songs, which were FREAKING AMAZING. He was saying thank you after every performance, which was adorable.

So then he performed more, and of course, AMAZING. I won't go into detail, because there's not much to tell about the performances. He sang, looked cute, blahblahblah.
So then after the concert, I went and bought a poster for Lindsay and me. Lindsay because she couldn't come.
The poster is AMAZING.
I can't stop staring at it.
SO after that, I went outside with my friends to the tour bus. The security guards were trying to like, force us to go around tot he other side, and to leave the door. But no one budged. Ahah.
After about 20 minutes, Teddy's guitar player, Evan, came out. He was pretty cute.

So everyone ran to him. Which was perfect, because right behind him was Teddy. It was freaking crazy, he was like 3 feet away from us.

i2.photobucket.com/albums/y36/greendayxchica/67.jpg
Then everyone like STAMPEDED him, poor Evan. He was like, in the middle.
Ahah, so then I finally got to the front, and I got my pic taken with him!

DON'T MIND MY SPAZZY FACE.
He was so sweet, the camera was like, breaking, so it was taking a while. But he was like oh, it's alright, it's alright!
So then once I went back and got my shirt signed, we went to go wait for Sarah & Danielle's dad.
Once he came, we got in the car, like SCREAMING and talking about it and eating cookies.
ALL IN ALL - amazing freaking night. Best one of my life.
I've gone from loving Teddy, to freaking worshipping him. Wow.
