Went to Projekt Revolution Yesterday and it was Epic
I was able to attend Projekt Revolution yesterday with a couple of friends. I didn't even know I was going to go until a day or two ago. I wasn't expecting much from it, but it turned out to be amazing.
The Lineup Announced
Revolution Stage:
-Armor for Sleep
-Hawthorne Heights
-10 Years
-Atreyu
Main Stage:
-Street Drum Corps
-Ashes Divide
-Busta Rhymes
-The Bravery
-Chris Cornell
-Linkin Park
Starting off the day I thought we were a little late to get there, but the lines ended up being short. People started coming later. After getting into the gates we went strait to the Rev. Stage. We were the first to get there so we were right on the barricade in the center.
Armor for Sleep: Now things got started. they came out and I was expecting a good show from them, but they did amazing. The lead singer ended up coming down to the barricade a sang right next to me. I pat him on the back just because I had the chance. I also got a direct stare from him when he was on stage. After they finished they threw out drumsticks and I caught one. It was signed by the drummer too.
Hawthorne Heights: I was excited about them. They put on a show, but I'm not sure they are the same without Casey (Their Screamer who died) but the audience along with myself were happy to do his parts. After they finished one of my friends left to go get their autographs. So now there are two of us left.
10 Years: Now the Arizona heat is getting to me without having water for a while. This was kind of a weird experience for me. They did amazing I was able to sing along with them quite a bit. Now the wierd part. Their bassist and I had like a direct stare of for a good 10 seconds+ while he was singing along and playing. I thought it was kind of cool I guess. He ended up doing it two more times, but shorter and one of the times was when he threw a pick out and it didn't get as far as the barricade so I looked a at him, shrugged and he nodded like "yeah". (If that makes any sense) The lead singer also came down and walked across the whole thing. When he got near me I put my hand strait up, he grabbed it and used it for leverage. I think it was easy for him to spot and since I have some height on me and a pretty good arm spand. They did amazing. That's why I like them. When they ended my other friend left because the heat really got to him, but I wanted to stick it out for Atreyu.
Atreyu: Heat is really getting to me by the time they came out. They play Right Side of the Bed as their second song which is my favorite from them and what I wanted to hear, but after the fifth song or so I had to get out of there because I was just out of it. Those average days of 115 degrees or so really get to you. So I got out and took a seat on the floor somewhere. Atreyu ended up play every amazing song they had. So they were great. Eventually I got up and got some water. Threw up a little. Wasn't much, but it hurt. Then I found my friends again. They ended up getting stuff singed by HH and 10 Years.
We went to the main stage area and got great seats on the lawn. Right where the lawn and seats connect. Then the main stage started.
Street Drum Corps: Not bad. Great with drums. They put on a good show. Still a little tired at this point though.
Ashes Divide: They were ok, but I didn't pay too much attention. Still tired.
Busta Rhymes: He didn't show up. Yay!
The Bravery: Now they surprised me. They were actually pretty good.
Chris Cornell: What can I say? He's Chris Cornell. He is a great vocalist. He played a lot of his good songs, but the best thing that happened was during one of his songs Chester (from LP) came out and started singing with him. That was awesome.
Linkin Park: While they were setting up it started pouring out of nowhere. No sprinkling first or anything. People ended up hoping the lawn fence and just kind of pilled in on the seated area along with me followed by my friends. We didn't go too far. Just went up a bit into some seats, but not a covered area or anything, but had a better view. We were drenched. Completely wet. It really energized me quite a bit. It was what I needed. I went from heat exhaustion to shivering today. After a little delay because of the rain Linkin Park finally got started and they reminded me why they are my favorite band. They were just amazing. Playing while it was raining and lightning going off in the background. Chris Cornell came out for a song, which was awesome. They were just amazing. I sang along to every single song. Great show. It was the second time I've seen LP, but I'm pretty sure this one toped the last.
I was surprised with how great the show was because I wasn't expecting much after going to last years that had LP, MCR, TBS, HIM, Madina lake, but it was amazing. An experience I'll never forget.
I did take some really short clips on my phone that I can put up if anyone wants to see them. I have at least one from every Revolution stage artist and a couple from LP when the rain cooled down and just sprinkled. After the show one of my friends gave me something that they had signed by HH and 10 Years because it was pretty wet, but I was ok with it.
Excuse any spelling errors and I hope I didn't leave anything out.
