I think you must have been standing right next to me. It's weird to watch the video because it feels like I took it! Thanks for filming it!
- MelissaPosted 4 years ago on January 27, 2008 LINK -
ha, its possible. my friend and i were the two tall chicks on the far left.
-LauraPosted 4 years ago on January 27, 2008 LINK -

Hey, you're the one that said hi to me? I always feel a little crappy after wards because I'm afraid people might think I'm blowing them off, but I'm just socially handicapped.
Here's another one of Boots

Cool video, and thanks everybody for the comments about the photos.

Haha I was there last night! It was a great show. And it made me feel like I was back on the Rock Boat lol
Awesome pictures! Seriously. You're a really good photographer.
(I'm new here by the way. Hi!!)

Melissa...did one of you have dark hair w/ a plaid scarf?
Megan - no worries! It has taken a lot for me to be able to go up to strangers like that. Sorry if i put you on the spot!
My pics aren't nearly as admirable as Megan's but this one was fun...

Oh no, I love it when people come up and say they like my work, makes me feel special. Is that what I missed being late? We got sooo lost, and locked in the freaking sky walk once. We have problems.

Ha, if you like that one...the following is from before the show started...they were clearly waiting in the hallway.
Peek-a-boo, creepy.
Ugh...for some reason it won't let me post this picture...I'll have to do it when I get home from work.
And my friend and I had a seriously hard time finding the place. What kind of college campus was that? I think I saw six students...gathered around a computer in the commons, and who couldn't tell us where Charlie's Pub was. There are less than ten buildings on campus, how do they not know them all?
What song did you come in during?
-LauraPosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
I don't remember, but people were still standing far away all creeped out.
I'm done with college shows... impossible to find stuff. I saw Tyrone Wells last year at three college shows and two were IMPOSSIBLE to find, and one was only easy because it's my mom's home town (and she still works there too) and is it just me, or do all college campuses kind of look the same? Minus Wesleyan in Bloomington, IL, that one is pretty cool.We stopped a student walking around who knew where it was though, but...we still got lost...

Laura, yep that was me in the headband!
I forgot my camera (which has to be a sin when going to a Sk6ers show!), but once I get copies of my friend's pictures I'll put them up. I took one on my friend's camera of SK that's adorable.
It was a weird show...people definately hung back and didn't seem to know their songs much. But, I was fine with being in the front and being able to sing along. I just love how the guys are cool with going from the Rock Boat to something like that and still putting on an awesome show.
- MelissaPosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
Yeah, Illinois Wesleyen is a neat campus. I have a friend who went there and I visited a lot.
But...not that I'm BIASED or anything...but when we had the Sixers play at Loyola a couple years ago, they were out on the lawn and very visible, it was a lot of fun.
-LauraPosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
I can find you since you're in my fan club haha.
I've never been to Loyola to see the Sixers, but I did see Gavin DeGraw there one year.
Posted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
hahaha yeah..that was an interesting night. i was on the programming board and at one point we LOST gavin degraw...and he turned up at the bar across the street. oh dear...
-LauraPosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
Haha really? Big shock... Gavin loves the booze.

I can verify that Loyola was very fun.

i can't comment on FB cuz we're not friends BUT
that picture of boots in the dark is great.
he really is like a cat....his eyes glow.-elisePosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
yeah..i even had a gps device and it still was having difficulty trying to find the campus, and I asked a student where charlie's was once we were finally on "campus", and she had no clue. I also got lost and ended up in that tunnel where it said bandmembers only. I walked in during what I believe was the end of Maria, so I don't know if I missed anything before that. Overall, always a great show though. Had a blast. The Mrs. got sick the night before, so I brought my two younger brothers to their first sixers show, and they had a blast.
It was weird that nobody was near the stage when I walked in. It reminded me of the lake forest college show last fall. Nobody approached the stage the entire show by a good 15-20 feet. It was very weird. At one point Stephen jumped off the stage and pretended to give high fives to the non-existent people in the front row.

if you came in during maria, you just missed a graet cat stevens intro into sophia. maria was after that.
-LauraPosted 4 years ago on January 28, 2008 LINK -
ooh i love the cat stevens intro.
but i always seem to be the only one to know what it is!
i guess it helps that one of my favorite movies is Harold & Maude.there was this one show in providence a couple years ago where there was no one near the stage and it left a pretty nice dance floor....which prompted a dance party.
and this was all before Kit started dancing....actually, it may have been where it all began. so we can actually blame the awkwardness of people for tearing Kit's ACL.-elisePosted 4 years ago on January 29, 2008 LINK -
Hey. So this is my first time posting on the message boards but I decided I was totally missing out. Laurlaur1013, I was the blond girl with Melissa at this concert. I took some pictures of the concert. There not as good as some of them on here but I thought I would post them up.
