Wow, they haven't been here since 2004! Besides the Coachella festival and a secret gig they did about two weeks ago, this was the first real concert since 2004! I was so bummed about missing them at Coachella, but when I found out about this gig, I was so happy! Travis was all I wanted to see anyway, not too many other bands that were there.. It seems I'm into all these artists that happen to be touring this year! Everyone has made a new album in the past year.. :P Keane, Josh Groban, Mika, Rufus Wainwright (but I don't know if I can see him this year :/), and of course Travis!
I was standing for about 7 to 8 hours this time. I waited in line and waited for the band to come out after their sound check (Fran told us they'll come back after they finish before the sound check). :) They are SO incredibly nice! It was so exciting to meet Fran, Dougie, Neil and Andy!! :D I gave the drawing I drew while I stood in line to Dougie since he was the first to see me. He was so adorably kind and gracious about it, and he showed it to Neil too. XD Fran came out last and he was sooo nice. :D He took a picture for us of him, my mom, and me. ^.^
Even though I was near the front of the line, the front row was already filled. I stood behind these "VIP" people. X( How did they get in so early?! Grr, there was a tall guy in front too, so I couldn't see very well. I could only see in the middle between their heads but not to the left and right of my vision... Good thing the opening band was first so I could judge if my view was okay. It wasn't, so I asked the tall guy if we could switch places, but he wouldn't.. :/ Thankfully my mom was in the front all the way to the left of the stage when she was looking for a better spot, so I just went over there. I had a much clearer view without anyone blocking me.
At first I was afraid to take out my camera, but after awhile, everyone was taking pictures and video. The security didn't say anything, so I just took a lot of pictures and video. :D Too bad one of them had to stand in front of the stage right in the MIDDLE! So his head is in a lot of my pictures and videos.. @_@ Travis rocked the house! They were all so cute when they interacted with each other and everything. Fran did a solo acoustic performance of "Flowers In The Window" ♥ When Dougie looked at me, I smiled to him and he smiled back!!! SQUEE! XD Andy apparently did some crazy crowd surfing or something on the other side.. I couldn't see! :( I couldn't see Neil that well either because he's so far back and Dougie was blocking him most of the time. Other than that, it was all good! Fran was so cute when he forced us to "pogo" jump during "Why Does It Always Rain On Me?" XD AWESOME show! :D
Here are just a few pictures and tons of videos I already found on YouTube! O_O
The marquee sign! This was after it was fixed.. It said "NKCRW PRESNETS TRAVIS" before.. :P
