10:10 pm - The Post-Concert Entry: Creature Feature. :D

So here is the great Creature Feature entry. :)
As I post after every concert, the epicly long entry where I swoon over the fun that was had.
(Beforehand, to familiarize yourself with the band...
http://www.myspace.com/creaturefeaturemusic
Curtis RX is vocals and guitar.
Erik X is keyboards.)

Here Goes. The ride there wasn't as nerve-wracking as I'd thought it would be. The only real problem we had was when we got to the Croc Rock and had no idea about the parking situation. We eventually went into the cafe on the side and asked, and found out that after 5PM parking on the streets is free.

Blahblahblah, we were hangin out at the cafe, waiting for doors to open etc etc.

And then we found out we were waiting in the wrong place, and there was already a line formed outside, lol.
(We later found out that the person who informed us of this was in one of the opening bands. XD THEY didn't even know where to go.)

To cut the boring stuff even more short: All the opening bands were shit shit shit, oh my god. I am open-minded, and give all bands a chance. And I did. But sweet Jesus. I was not amused. My ears hurt. I felt like an old person. I'm 18 years old. And they were too loud for me.

And oh my goodness, the goth losers. THE GOTH LOOOSERSSSS.
I'm used to being called goth/freak/slut/weirdo/wackjob/satanist all that lovely shite. But in this atmosphere, I must've looked a little too normal, or maybe not normal, just different from them, because I was getting shit looks all night. XD
Whatever. At least I wasn't so greasy and covered in black that I looked like I had been swimming in a vat of oil.
(For the love of god. No certain group of people is more annoying that the morbidly obese goth girls.)

But all that shit aside.

CREATURE FEATURE ♥

I was so happy for them to come on. I squealed. I jumped. I danced. I sang. I SCREEEEEAAAAAAMED. XD

They were so good.
Some of the especially humorous entertaining bits:
-Some meathead idiot screamed out, "YOU SOUND JUST LIKE FALL OUT BOY", to which lead singer Curtis RX replied, "THAT GUY SUCKS! PUMMEL HIM! YOURE OFF MY MYSPACE! IM TAKIN YOU OFF!"XDDD
-During a little keyboard solo by Erik, Curtis went over and was trying to hit the keyboard keys underneath and over Erik's arm, rofl. I chuckled, it was cute.
-Because of the MASSIVE HORDE OF CRYING DEPRESSING GOTHS, I assume anyway, Curtis made the comment, "WEAR WHITE, YOU MIGHT FEEL BETTER". Looool.
-Then he goes, "This is a song about giant mutant insects!, and they broke into The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth.
-"This song will teach your alphabet!"and they played 'A Gorey Demise' . Funny if you know the song. XD

There's probably some other hilarity that was said, but that's all I could remember at the moment.

They were fantastic.
I keep replaying it over in my head. Lovelovelovelove.
So glad we went to see them.

And I have to say: The Croc Rock is a lovely little venue. I've never really been to a show that wasn't in a big-ass spectrum/arena/concerthall because all of our local bands suck. But the Croc rock is a lovely little place. (Even though the ceiling was leaking because it was raining really hard. But even that was charming in an odd way. XD)
Smaller place, smaller stage. It was just nicer. More intimate. XD

AND NOW.
( Photos! LJ-Cut for obvious reasons....get ready for an explosion of photos. )

So there goes the concert shots.

NOW ONTO THE WONDERFUL BIT WHERE I MET THEM. (Insert fangirling here. It was hard not to squeal in their presense. XD Go on, laugh, but they're one of my fav bands, so I was a bit squeal-y on the inside.)

So they finished playing their kick-ass set.
And they mentioned they'd be hanging out by their merch stand, as I knew they normally did after shows.
So I'm like *NUDGENUDGE* ROB LET'S GO GET T-SHIRTS.
And Nina was ready to leave all together pretty much XD
And I wasn't really interested in Wednesday 13. (I tried to get into him. No go, though. Much rather have a chance at meeting Creature Feature.)

So we headed for their merch stand. And they had a tiny little table with posters and a few t-shirts.
( Photos of the Shirts I got. :p )
The girl at the stand was grinning at me, because I was clearly fangirly, in my creature feature shirt, as I was buying two more, and demanding a poster, roflmao.
I thanked her, and looked around, and they were no where to be found. I wasn't really counting on meeting them, because cool stuff never happens to me. (Weird stuff is another story, as you all know from reading this journal, but rarely do lucky, cool things happen to me.)
So I had kind of made peace to the fact that I probably wasn't going to see them, and Rob had known how badly I wanted to meet them.
All of a sudden he's like, "......C'mere!" and grabs my hand and is dragging me. And I'm like, "what the hell?"

And he dragged me over towards the concert floor a bit, and I see Curtis RX standing there, and I'm like, "*GAAAAASP*. Rob's like, Well go ahead, talk to him! But he was already talking to another person, and I didn't want to be rude and interupt. I don't want to rob someone else of their fangirl/boy moment. And no one likes people who interupt. So I just sort of stood there waiting for them to hopefully stop talking so I could go be like, "HEY". XD

But then I spotted Erik X, and I'm like, "SDFJSKDFKJSDKFJ", and went over to him. And he noticed my shirt, and he's like, "Oh man, did you make that? That's so cool, that graphic's from our website right?"
I'm like, "MMHMM! :D Burned my hands with the glue gun making it, I love you guys so much!"
And he said, "Oh that's awesome, we love when fans make stuff" etc etc.
And my Rob was lugging around my Creature Feature CD in his pants all night, I had asked him to carry it for me, in the chance that we would meet them, and I'd have them sign it.
Rob whipped it out and handed it to me to have him sign. First off, I'll explain the significance of this particular CD: They only have one album out but there was a first release which was a limited release, and it was their very first ever ever ever. This was the CD I had. I guess it's sort of rare now, they don't sell it anymore, they only sell the re-release.
So the moment I handed it over for him to sign he's like, "Oh gosh! People buying this album is the only reason we're able to tour now! That's so cool! Hold on, lemme get the silver marker from Curtis and I'll have him sign it too." (At this point I was like, "OHMYGODDDD AWESOOOME." in my head.)
So he retrieved said marker, signed it, I thanked him, and asked him if I could get a picture with him, and he happily said yes. (They were so friendly and nice. XD) He put his arm around me, and started apologizing for being so sweaty, he said he had been sick. I told him it was quite alright, rofl. Rob snapped the picture, I thanked Erik once again, we hugged, and then I went to walk away, and he's like "I'll make sure Curtis signs the CD", so he handed the CD over to Curtis, and he had a very similiar reaction.
"HAVEN'T SEEN ONE OF THESE IN A LONG WHILE! CAN I KEEP IT?"
And in a nervous stupid blurb-out I'm like, "HAHA IF YOU REALLY WANTED TO." (And I'm thinking WHY THE FUCK DID YOU SAY THAT, SAM. WHY. roflmao.)
I really couldn't hear him very well because of the POUNDING music in the background ,but I think he started talking about meeting your favorite bands, and how he tries to be friendly and whatnot so fans aren't disappointed or something. XD (Unless I heard totally wrong. Like i said. VERY LOUD.)
So I thanked him, and I asked him for a picture as well. Rob snapped it, I thanked him again, we hugged, and we walked off again.

And then we're like FUCK, we forgot to have them sign that poster I bought which was specifically bought for that purpose. (I was so overcome by them signing my CD, roflmao...)
So we went back to the table, I'm like "WE'RE BACK". And they kind of laughed.
And they signed my poster. And I spoke with Erik a bit more. He asked if I had ever seen them before, and I said, "No, this was my first time! I've been Creature Feature de-virginized!" XD He kind of giggled, I don't know if he heard my though, it was SOO LOOOUD, lol.
Thanked him, hugged him once more, told him, "I FUCKING LOVE YOU GUYS."
Did they same with Curtis.
And Rob had them sign his Venom t-shirt. :p

Meanwhile Nina was waiting outside because she was all wanting to leave and whatnot. She ended up not meeting them 'cause she was outside, but I don't think she cared much so it all works out good.

Anyhoo.

Sorry for that overly large entry. But it was a truly epic night.

( And here be the photos I took with them, and my signed items. :D )

*siiiiiigh*
so fucking cool.
