One of the best moments of my life

Radiohead. Live in Atlanta, May 8th, 2008.

We woke up at 5:30am and got ready. Made a few sandwiches and got some water. Then we rode out at 7am to MARTA and got on the train. Took the train to the S4 station and found out that the bus we needed to get on was not there. Had to get back on the northbound and take it up one station. Got off there and waited for the 54 Bus. Then ended up on the wrong bus but got off before it left. Then we waited longer and got on the right bus. Got to the venue with 3 other people.

Waited from 9am to 4pm

At about 4:30 we got let into the first outer gates.

Waited another hour. Heard the soundcheck.

Got let into the outside of the amphitheatre. Waited another 45 minutes for bracelets for the pit.

Then got let into the pit. We got up FRONT against the RAIL in front of Ed's spot (everyone else stole the Thom, Thom/Jonny and Jonny spots).

Liars played. Gotta say. I liked about 2 songs out of the 7 or 8 they played.

Then, after another half hour wait...

This is gonna sound very fanboy of me, but what the hell

During Everything In its Right Place, Thom started singing the line "Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon."  I was singing it too and he looked me dead in the eyes and sang it with me.

That just made my life.

Not to mention I danced about the hardest I've ever danced before to 15 Step.

High five dude. The one concert I've ever gone to just blew me away, I'll never forget the rush of being right up against the stage, being brought together w/ a thousand other strangers for the same experiance... it's pure bliss.

Dude Thom's voice was SPOT ON in Atlanta.  And those songs along with You and Whose Army, Reckoner, and How To Disappear Completely were the best ones of the night.  The whole concert was just unbelievable.
