read the whole thing, damn you.
oh.

my.

god.

honestly i could die. right now.


i just got back from the BECK CONCERT at the gibson (universal) amphitheatre.

first of all, i learned TODAY that i had PIT TICKETS, so i would be in the front.

then i learned that ROBYN and ELLA got TICKETS TOO. however, i was PISSED, being the SELFISH person that i am. (i didn't wanna SHARE him. ha.)

so we got to the CONCERT (my mom and i- my mom loves beck) and we saw this opening "BAND", that was really beck and 3 of his bandmates all DRESSED UP in COSTUMES. there was a GORILLA, a weird OLD GUY, a LONG JOHNS-sporting PROSPECTOR, and beck himself was dressed as a COWBOY in black with white fringy things, a tiny black hat, black mask, and FAKE blonde MUSTACHE. they did all these POLITICAL REMIXES with video clips which were completely AWESOME. hardly anyone RECOGNIZED them at all, which was pretty FUNNY.

then they left and LE TIGRE came on. they're pretty GOOD, and send the MUCH-IGNORED message that GAY MARRIAGE needs to be ALLOWED in AMERICA.

and then:

BECK. he did absolutely AMAZING songs. and apart from wanting to JUMP onto the STAGE and just MAKE OUT with him and then some (heh heh), the acoustic songs he did were gorgeous, along with his gorgeous VOICE and gorgeous FACE.

all was going DANDY: i had snuck in not one but 2 DIGITAL CAMERAS (one with zoom!!!) so i got a ton of PICTURES of my love. i MADE UP with robyn and ella. we were all having a friggin' SWELL TIME, and then he put on the song "get real paid" and a couple GIRLS and GUYS from the AUDIENCE got to GO UP on STAGE. robyn and i were all like "arrrrgggg, we should be UP THERE!!!!" and SUDDENLY this GUY with a name tag CAME OVER to me and was like:

"wanna come onstage?"

and we were like:

"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!"

so we get up onstage and start DANCING with the WHORES who are trying to SEDUCE him or something (i'm serious), but we're not dancing like whores. we were probably the YOUNGEST people up there (hey, it pays to be 5'10") and we were in complete SHOCK while having a blast at the same time. we kept dancing for a while, and then he changed the song to "mixed bizness". partway into the song, he COMES OVER to me while singing. i CONVENIENTLY happen to be in the FRONT of the MIDDLE of the STAGE. he starts DANCING about 6 INCHES AWAY from me while singing these lyrics:

Do you wanna ride on the Baltic Sea
I'll be your mistress C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair
Rewrite your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee

and at the "comb your hair" part, he starts RUNNING HIS HANDS down one side of my hair, and then the other, TOUCHING it ALL the WAY DOWN, not just over the top. all the while he's sort of DANCING with me and looking STRAIGHT INTO my eyes with his own GORGEOUS baby blues. and at the "pour champagne" part, he slyly LOOKS me UP AND DOWN with mock SEXUALITY. and SMILED his little SMART-ASS half-smile.

honestly, i was the person he DANCED with the LONGEST. out of EVERYONE. someone could SHOOT ME and i would DIE HAPPY.

so after the concert, a TON of people were saying stuff like "hey, you KIDS were ONSTAGE!" and "i SAW you DANCE with him!"

all robyn and ella and i could do was walk sort of SLOWLY and stop every so often to JUMP up and down and SQUEAL.

i am SO in HEAVEN right now.






oh, and he's not THAT much shorter than me.
