Okay guys, I got home from the Columbia, MO show a couple hours ago, and let me say it was AMAZING.
So my friend and I drove in from St. Louis (thanks to my lovely mother :]) and got to Columbia around 330 or so. At like 4 we were driving to go find food and my mom goes, "Isn't that Evan?!?!"
So Evan was standing on the street talking to random people wearing Metro Station or Mayday Parade stuff. We hopped out of the car and went and talked to him for a bit, probably like 15 mins or so.
We got pics with him and Kim, who was really surprised we knew who she was. We talked for a while and Ev told us what kind of food was around and stuff. He was our official "Columbia Tour Guide" lol. He was really happy we were wearing his shirts and stuff and said he kinda recognized us from when we saw him on SS. We told him we would be at Six Flags the next day and he was like, "guys, you totally need to find me before the show tomorrow... or wait we could do it today..." but Kenny came over and he never finished what he was saying. So we're totally gonna be sure to find him before the show today.
So we went and lined up at the venue after we ate, and stood there in the heat for an hour and a half. ick. some people had been there since 12, which is insane. Evan was sitting across the street talking on the phone and no one knew who he was, haha. When we walked in he was standing greeting people and was telling someone how they would get kisses if they bought shirts, and he gave us our kisses right then. :]
We got in like the 4th row of people back and Evan played first-- same setlist as SS
Razorblade Limeade
Cheater of the Year
Story of Me and You
Pumpkin Pie
Boy Meets Girl
It was amazing of course-- even better than SS I thought. He did more with guitar and his voice, just like spiced it up. And the audio in the venue was tons better.
We left the crowd riiiight after his set to go buy merch and talk to him. So we did that and hung out with him and Kim while Mitchel Musso played. We made Kim and Kenny sign our stuff too and Kim was all confused. :]
They were sooo sweet and my mom and Kim talked a tooon. We just kept finding stuff for evan to sign, and he was like, "anything for you guys!"
So we each got 2 shirts signed, our shoes, our phones... I think that's it. My mom got her Kindle signed too hahahah.
When he came out and sang Shake it during Metro's encore we freaked out. it was awesome, and my mom got a pretty good video on her iPhone.
We didn't hang around after the show because it was insane and we couldn't find Evan annnyyywhere. There were massive crowds of Metro Station fans hanging around everywhere waiting for them.
We did get pics and signatures from two of the Mayday Parade guys. The one was standing there the whole time we talked to Evan and we didn't know who it was. We kinda felt bad once we realized it...
Okay, here's a feeeew pics. More are on my friend's camera hopefully she'll add them later tonight after the Six Flags show.
when we ran into Evan on the street!
Kim was confused that we knew who she was and wanted her pic. We were like. Kim. you're KIM. why wouldn't we want your pic?!?
More videos in just a bit hopefully!
