The Coheed and Linkin Park show was pretty much awesome.
The pros included not getting lost on the way in, a non-shitty opener, Claudio's massive hair, Chris NOT falling asleep during Coheed's performance, Feathers, Laura taking some pretty sweet pictures (*cough* put on facebook soon *cough*), a wrap around stage for Linkin Park, two encors, a guest performance by Jay-Z, and a wonderful closing with Bleed It Out.
The cons (though not many) included no Devil in New Jersey (WTF, we were 30 minutes from NJ), no Hands Held High, the inability to jump around (because we were in seats... and I didn't want to be like the character we were sitting next to), and the total lack of a voice today.
Full set of braces for 3 years... CHECK Braces removed... CHECK Bottom teeth rotate... CHECK Bottom braces re-attached for one year... CHECK Permanent retainer added to bottom teeth for ~8 years... CHECK
Permanent retainer broken at least 10 times (by gum, food, no real reason)... CHECK Permanent retainer removed... CHECK Re-straightening bottom teeth for the 3rd time (this time with a removable retainer)... fuck.
I have to wait 4 weeks until I can get the retainer to fix my teeth. Then, after 4 or so months, I can stop using it and have a permanent retainer re-attached to my bottom teeth.
