All American Rejects Tour with Siny Toy Guns

ALL AMERICAN REJECTS
























SHINY TOY GUNS









April 13, 2009. I had a live performance shoot compliments of Kyle. Thanks Kyle if you are reading this and Amanda for getting me hooked up with Kyle. You both ROCK!!
Anyhew, my friend Danyel, Amanda and Myself went to the All American Rejects tour show at the Myth in Maplewood, MN. Not going to lie I was pretty pumped to be on the guest list and to be able to go in front of the barricades to take pictures of Shiny Toy Guns and the All American Reject. (For those that don't know Amandas friend Kyle is the Guitar Tech for Shiny Toy Guns and got me in to take pictures for th bands.) Once the show was finished we went and hung out in the band bus until we decided where we were going to eat. We ended up eating at TGIF after quite an adventure of listening to false google directions, lol. It was just Kyle (Guitar Tech from STG), Sisely (Wonderful girl from STG), Dani, Amanda and Myself. Kyle ended up ordering food for the other guys.

There were so many wonderful band stories and tour stories. Apparently the Bus Drivers are more mischeivous than the bands, haha. Would have never guessed. But Sis and Kyle did mention Bus Drivers getting flashed by girls and stuff....but we wont go there.
Sis and Kyle were two of the nicest people I have ever met that have been in or with a bigger band. They weren't cocky or snobby at all. In fact a few made comments about this creeper girl that was drunk at the show and later was running around near the busses and we assumed Tyson (from AAR) was taking her off her feet. BTW he totally works his sex appeal at his shows. Near the end he was jamming drum sticks down his pants and rubbing his sweaty balls all over them and throwing them into the crowd. I don't care for that much, but obviously the fans did. LOL!

After dinner we went back to the bus but left shortly after due to a long drive of our own and sure enough I lost my keys. Well, not totally, they fell in a whole in my purse, which made it very difficult to find. But I had awesome friends that were patient while I looked so I didnt get jumped by this creepy car filled with guys just chilling in the front of an empty building with their lights glaring forward. CREEPY.

Oh when I was up front near the pit a bunch of girls asked me about my hair because they thought it was super cute and the next thing I know I am handing out a ton of Business cards....good thing I brought extra.

haha, awesome blog post. The show was amazing, your photos are amazing, I especially love the one of Tyson's shoe. I tried to do my hair like that today and semi succeeded. [[=

HaHa, You should take a pic for me. Note: it works best if you use bigger bobby-pins for the main part and smaller ones for adding flare to your hair. At least thats what works for me!
