OH. MY. LORD. YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
IT WAS TOO AMAZING FOR WORDS.
THEREFORE, PICTURES MUST SUFFICE.
Dude in front of me and Jess in line was wearing the most delicious skinnies. I had to snap some stalker photos.
Everyone was wearing Converse. And I mean everyone. Literally. We fit right in.
Sign on the merchandise table. I thought it was hilarious.
I had zero expectations for the opening act, Born Ruffians, but they were actually phenomenal. The songs were catchy and interesting, and the lead singer was fantastically talented.
AND THEN... IT BEGAN. Sorry my camera is such crap.
Alex Kapranos is literally the most beautiful person I have ever seen in real life.
You think I am exaggerating, but no.
He was wearing these blue trousers with a short sleeved polka dot button down tucked into them, and a black belt.
AND FANTASTIC BRIGHT RED BROGUES. THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL.
Absolute best were Lucid Dreams, Michael, 40', Ulysses, and This Fire, which was the closing number and just a total shitshow. It was amazing.
Take Me Out, No You Girls, Do You Want To, Outsiders, What She Came For, and Turn It On were equally stellar.
What an absolutely perfect way to relax before my AP test tomorrow.
By the time I post again, I'll be done! Wahoo! Something to cheer about!

Glad you had fun!
Oh, I saw Born Ruffians a couple of years ago when they opened for The Hidden Cameras! They are amazzzzinng and have a fantastic live energy. I saw them when they released their first EP and there was only like one or two people on the floor and the rest of the people in the club were at the bar (including me). I hadn't heard of them when I saw them but I felt very privileged by the end of their set. Amazing!
Ahhhhh!!!
You have no idea how envious I am!
Alex is gorgeous. Plain and simple. I really hope their tour takes them my way. I'd love to see them live!
I love all those songs, but Michael, Lucid Dreams, and 40' are definitely faves :]
hehe, i love that you are so excited! Of all the bands i have seen before they were famous, FF are the ones that went to most massive. And I absolutely knew when i saw them in the small venue, not knowing any of their songs, that they would be ginormous. I saw them recently too, and they're still ace!
OMG! I wish I were there! I'm a big fan of Franz Ferdinand!! I love guys wearing skinny jeans! :-P xxoxoxo
Sounds like a wonderful time!
omg lucky! you got to see franz ferdinand! AHHHHH ive been dying to see themmm :(
green. with. envy.
franz ferdinand is my very favourite... the lyrics are just amazing, I love each and every song unconditionally :)
I adore Converse sneakers - the best shoes ever!!!
And Franz Ferdinand is pretty good band ;)
i think the photos really are great since they evoke that crazy intense feeling of glee that must of been felt being there! you seemed to have a great time, yay!
:)
Wow! So cool! I love Franz Ferdinand..they're so great..so lucky you!
Lucky!!!! This Fire is one of my favorite songs. Sounds like an amazing concert. I love the converse, too.
It looks so amazing! I'm glad you had a good time. Do you livein Portland? I remember I almost went with some friends to see them at The Roseland.
I saw Franz Ferdinand about 5 years ago supporting Morrissey, they were really good. 'Michael' is definitely one of my favourite songs, brings back some really good memories.
love it he makes good music
i love boys in skinny jeans.
good luck on your APs! im sure you'll do great!
xox.
The Voguette
Live music is most fantastic!! I can feel the energy just looking at your photos. Thanks for sharing :) xoxo, Nicole

At least you saw Franz Ferdinand to take your mind off AP test a bit. Good luck on that one btw.
I know what you mean about Alex Kapranos. A lot of people are more gorgeous in person than on camera.
I'm so jealous, I love the born ruffians and franz ferdinand!!!!
lucky girl! i bet FF were great live.

so funny when everyone wears the same, glad you had a good time xx

thanks for the sweet comment on my blog :).
i made my top simply with permanent markers! i had to be careful that the ink didn't spread too much on the fabric, and the edges of the drawings are a little bit blurry, but still quite neat :).
would you like to exchange blog links?
