Last Night: PHOENIX !!


PHOENIX AT TERMINAL 5 IN MIDTOWN.
BEST. SHOW. EVER?


Going to keep this personal & short:
  • We were up against the front barrier. Four feet from the stage.
  • Opening act Amazing Baby was ironically terrible.
  • During the Phoenix set Thomas Mars (lead vocals) jumped into the crowd to dance with us
  • He invited everyone on the stage but the security guys wouldn't let us go ("THE STAGE IS YOUR'S! THE STAGE IS YOUR'S! COME ON! LET THEM UP!")
  • I caught a drumstick! I was with 3 friends, we're doing a 'sisterhood of the traveling drumstick.'
  • My friend and I touched Thomas when he came in front of us in the press pit to get into the crowd (haha..everyone was going nuts)
  • During Love Like a Sunset Pt. 1 instrumental Thomas laid down leaning on a monitor like a pillow. Pictures below:

My love for this band has tripled. Easily the best show I've ever been to.
They played Letterman last night+were four feet in front of me a few hours ago.
Surreal.

Very much looking forward to the next one..see them play if you can!!
