Now this was the show for me, so far! 20,000 plus people, all hyped up and ready to see a DM show. Even with my earplugs in, the people were loud. Everytime a band member came to the front of the stage, I had this bad fear of the little wall separating the photo pit from the rest of the venue was going to collapse from all the people standing next to it, reaching to touch said band member (though it did provide for some great picture taking). The screams of "Maaaaaaaartin" during his performance of "Surrender" were particularly loud.
After the free pepsi and nacho chips (read: backstage), we all went back to the hotel. Can i just say that the drive from the venue to the freeway was awful! I'd have to say that was the longest part of the trip. It was definitely an adventure trying to keep up with the band's mode of transportaion (no pun intended - really) in my little rental car.
