Neverwake and Devour the Day 5/6/16
|
Neverwake and Devour the Day 5/6/16 (6 pics) I was bumming cause I had been trying to find someone to go see Neverwake my new fave Pittsburgh band and Devour the Day which the lead singer Blake was the drummer of a band Egypt Central that is no longer together that I saw 9 years ago this is him and I then  and also Joey is the Bassist of Devour the Day he was the bassist of Egypt Central this was him and I 9 years ago  I wanted to see these 2 bands together sooo bad. Plus I'd never seen Devour the Day live since they hadn't come near me since they had formed a few years prior. The show was May 6. It got to May 3, I had posted a few days prior on here if anyone wanted to go. So this guy in his mid 40's contacted me. He's actually the reason I expanded my age preferences a bit. I mean I have to be attracted to the guy and we have to have stuff in common, but I've become a bit more lenient. He sent me a message saying if he had known sooner he was actually wanting to go to that show (he works in Pitt) but ended up making other plans. I asked if there was any way he could reconsider? I was desparate lol. He got back to me later that day that he was able to but he had to work cause it was a friday so my friend drove me to Monroeville which is like a half hr from Pitt. She doesn't like driving in Pitt traffic. What's funny is I wasn't really that attracted to him in the beginning and honestly wasn't planning on seeing him again. After the evening was over and we had talked, even though he was a nice guy, I just had no attraction. He wasn't ugly but I don't know, I wasn't feeling it. Of course I didn't know all this going into the meeting. I wanted to give him a chance since from the few messages we exchanged prior he seemed like an intelligent, respectful guy with great music taste. So rare to find. Any way,I'm getting ahead of myself. So we get to the venue and we're running late, the opening act was on. That's ok, it wasn't either of the bands I came to see. I mean at that point it was like 7:30 and first band came on at 7. Justin (Neverwake's guitairist) came over to me sometime in between before they came on and said hi). Neverwake comes on and I go up by the stage, he stays in the back by the bar where he prefers. It's been quite awhile so I don't remember everything anymore but I had a blast. After they get off I go up and get a drink. I get a special drink that doesn't have a name, tastes like a candy apple. Even the bartender liked it. lol Then Devour the Day comes on so I go back up to the other side of the stage. This part is ingrained in my mind cause all 4 members of Neverwake were around me jamming out. They could've picked anywhere it wasn't crowded, but they all stood around me, maybe they didn't do it on purpose, but it was awesome to me. Doesn't take a lot to make me happy. At one point Johnny the lead singer was trying to get his ear monitor cords off and they were stuck and no one was helping him so I reached out and pulled them cause I saw where they were tangled. He thanked me and put them in his pocket, Again, little things. lol Weeks later when that guy, I'm gonna call him J, and I were hanging out he told me he had been watching my butt a lot while I was up by the stage and I was like how? There were like people behind me and he said he had a good view. He also said if he wouldn't have been so shy at the time he wouldn't have left my side all night, which that night I probably wouldn't have welcomed it any way, but looking back with where things are now, it's best to grab every little moment you can. After the show I went over and got 2 pics with Blake from Devour the Day. I even showed him the one from 9 years ago and he was like "OMG I look so thin" He definitely has beefed up. He didn't remember me, but I didn't really talk to him then, just got the pic. I also said I hated that pic of me cause I thought I looked like a poodle. So he said well we'll take 2 pics now. He pulled me close like we were bffs. I adore those pics. He was such a sweethart. Here's one of them since they pretty much look the same  Next I got a couple pics with Johnny from Neverwake cause he was kinda hanging around with no one bugging him which is unusal, the first one I liked   He is an awesome guy and that show was kind of when I started to become friends with him. Then we waited for a bit cause I had to talk to Joey from Devour the Day. I wanted to see if he remembered me and get a pic, cause 9 years ago I had spent a decent amount of time talking to him. Apparently he went out to their bus to change. So just when I was about to give up, I mean almost all of every bands'<b> gear </font></b>had been taken away that's how late it was, he comes back in. I was like Hey Joey, you probably don't remember me. He gets this surprised look on his face and says Johnstown. So he didn't remember my name but remember the small town I'm from. lol We talked for a few min about things and I got a pic and then we left.  J took me home and I really thought that was the last time I'd see him. But that will have to wait for another entry. I sent an Angel to watch over you last night, it returned in a hurry. I asked why, it said "Angels can't watch porn." Thanks for fucking traumatizing my fucking Angel! Don't bother trying to figure me out. Not even the little voices in my head understand me. It's pointless! |
