Depeche Mode last night was AMAZING. TINY venue--I got there less than an hour early and was standing only five rows back. I could see their faces. It was SO cool. The sound was great, Dave Gahan was better, and everyone was singing along. It completely made up for the crappiness of the Jones Beach show (freezing weather, dissipating.outdoor sound, and Dave Gahan's voice all fucked up). I can't believe I was lucky enough to see Depeche Mode THAT close. Definitely one of the most perfect concert experiences I've had.

It's so neat when you can see their faces--Dave Gahan and Martin Gore both have these amazing smiles--so genuine and sweet, that when you see them smile, you can't help but become happier, and then they see the audience is happy, so their smiles get brighter, and everyone's just, y'know, happy. And seeing Martin Gore sing, up close--so amazing. He really has the voice of an angel.

Other exciting news--I'VE GOT MY TICKETS. I'm flying to Fort Lauderdale on the morning of June 5, seeing PIG that night, taking Amtrak to Tampa the next morning, seeing PIG that night, then flying back to NYC first thing in the morning so that I can get to work on Wednesday. CRAZY schedule, but for PIG--I'm sure it'll be worth it. (Assuming none of these shows get cancelled--GRR.)

I'm SO excited--the time is actually approaching when I will be SEEING PIG LIVE(!!!).

Oh yeah, and tomorrow I'm flying to Boston to see Alice in Chains.

My life is insane.

Go check out the official PIG site, built by me. (SQUEE!!!)
