KISS Party was off the heezy. I went with Colleen and Jimmy. We showed up just as Venessa Carlton was playing her song. I thought it would have been cool if they had her piano on a rope and they dragged her around the stage while she was playing, but alas, there weren't any creative people planning her performance. She did alright, but her voice bothers me, so I rather tolerated her. Then Aaron Carter came on stage. He can do a backflip, which is pretty cool. And I must admit, I was looking forward to the live version of Aaron's Party (Come Get It). But by the time he got to his big hit, his voice was shot and it was straight up cracking on every word. It was pretty funny. Every other song he sang was horrid.
After that came Michelle Branch. I was excited to see her. All of her songs were really good, but I only knew the two. She has a really good voice. I thoroughly enjoyed her performance. After her was Craig David. I kind of liked Craig David going into the concert but now I really like him. It was just him and one dude on guitar, and the guy wailed while Craig David flowed and sang. It was so cool. He did 3 songs that I knew but even the ones I didn't were amazing.
Then came The Calling. I can barely express in words how off the hook it was. It was the lead singer's 21st Birthday and he must have been giving it his all. He was screamin his head off and hitting every note perfectly. They only got to play about 5 songs which sucked, but they really brought the house down on each one. When they did Stigmatized (my favorite song) Alex, the lead singer, was just playing guitar and singing. But when it got to the big climax of the song, the rest of the band came in and the just tossed his guitar away and grabbed the mic and started singing. It was so cool.
My mother is yelling at me cause she's forcing me to go to church. Big surprise there. Damned guilt trips. Check you cats later.
