Honda Civic Tour

Matt and Kim, My Chemical Romance, and headliners Blink 182 rocked the Verizon Amphitheater a couple of weeks ago. It attracted an audience which I call the UNCC crowd, meaning mostly college-age people and a minimal amount of adolescents and older people. It was an energetic and fun show for everyone there, except for that one guy that laid down on the lawn and took a nap until the headliner. Seriously who does that? First of all he did not care at all for the openers, and secondly how can you toss and turn on a filthy lawn with all that loudness and energy all around you?

Matt and Kim's energy was fantastic. I love when a two-person band has such chemistry. Kim is my new female musician hero. I wish I could play drums like that at all.

My Chemical Romance had a roller-coaster set, playing really old stuff, and some really new things I have not even heard. I'm an oldschool fan, and I just can't picture the lead singer as anything else but the goth boy with sunken eyes and black locks of old.

I never was a die-hard fan of Blink 182,  but it was fun to reminisce about being an angsty youth; my companions were enjoying it very much. The stage banter of the group only added to that feeling. I enjoy a good amount of stage banter when I'm in a position where I can clearly make out what is being said, or am not yet drunk to the point where anything I hear doesn't get processed.

We overheard some kid say "Yeah let's leave, Blink 182 is my dad's music."
Kids these days...
