SWITCHFOOT LIVE=WIN

i mean, switchfoot on cd already does so much to me (and my ever unstable mental/emotional state). switchfoot LIVE?!?!?!?! LIVE AND ONSTAGE AND RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME AND JON AND TIM AND DREW AND JEROME AND CHAD?!?! (and their crew andy and what's-his-name-again desiree?) tell me im alive and breathing and everything.

which was what they did, anyway. they told me im alive, im meant to live for so much more and we're all learning to breathe (and a lot of other things of course).

im sorry yamapi love, but this OWNS news concert anytime anywhere anyplace. which makes it even better because i think that news "gives so much courage" (yamapi) and strength to people. with their songs, silly, not their looks (not that their pretty faces and dorky nature doesnt!!!).

but but but but but but switchfoot. courage? yes. strength? yes. dorky nature? check out their podcast or just ask desiree the geek :D. or just remember that 30 secs? 1 minute? freeze that they did mid-concert. WHAT. DORKS. or the crazy crazy in love/gone medley. WINS. pretty faces? jon please cut your hair dont be a bono!! (HAAAHAH NXY dont keel me. i think bono's cool. waaaay cooool.. i think. :P)

other than that (and the fact that it's in ENGLISH), they're "singing, Spirit take me up in arms with You, and You're raising the dead in me." there is just no comparison. (:

i can go on and on, but it's 2AM and yes, i have an interview again tomorrow at 10:30AM, this time for REAL for a REAL JOB. if you want (or if i have REALLY A LOT OF TIME aka NOT HIRED) i will post the entire experience. (:

switchfoot says, we are one tonight. go figure.

ETA at 2:46AM: further evidence of Their Dorkiness
Behind the Song (of We Are One Tonight):
“This was the last track we pulled out for the record. We camped out for a day in a studio called The Pass that a friend of fields owns- such a great place! I think I want to rent it out and live there. Pool table, kitchen, shower, couch, and a room to cut drums in... Honestly, what more could a guy want?! Chad gets to the studio and hobbles in on his crutches with a badly sprained ankle and proceeds to destroy the kick with an iron foot. That was a gratifying sight to see! Glad we could get the wook in on the record too- if it wasn't for this last minute addition we wouldn't have been graced with his name on the credits.” – Jon Foreman (Switchfoot)
