How is this thread so far back!?!
Soooo. The 7:00 Ars Nova conert tonight? INCREEEEDIBLE <3
First off, I've just like to say that Ars Nova is a gorgeous venue. So so intimate, and the acoustics are FLAWLESS. Like, daaang, everything sounded SO perfect! He didn't even really need a mic at all!! And pretty much every seat had a perfect view!
Basically, it was just a perfect show. I
still cannot get over the perfection and heaven that is Gavin's voice, the song were all soooooo beautiful, and Robbie is CRAZY on that guitar man- SO good! And Gavin is
so damn funny and adorable. I could literally have sat there ALL DAY just having him chat and be adorable and sing songs
The crowd was quite quiet though, so I really hope Gavin realized that was just because we were all REALLY into the music, and not because we were bored! haha. It was ANYTHING but boring, it's just the music was really mellow, so the audience was mellow too.
The ONLY two negatives about the night were:
- Too short
I needed mooooore haha
- Ars Nova is a
biyotch to get to from Grand Central! It literally takes about 45 minutes each way to get there, what with two subway transfers and then walking 3 avenues and 3 blocks. Granted I walk really slow, but still. There is no easy way to get there. So actually it was a good thing technically that the show ended early because I managed to back back to Grand Central just in time for the 9:25 train haha
Other notable things/moments from the show:
- Caissie and Jon Groff were there! Too cute omg. I first saw Caissie walk in and I was all "awww!" then I glance over a second later and Groff is with her and they're getting to their seats and chatting and everything hehe. So yeah, that made me happy
- Gavin noticed we were a quiet audience and commented on it, which prompted Caissie to yell from the audience "WE LIKE YOU A LOT!", to which Gavin went "I LIKE YOU TOO! ...waait a minute, I know that voice! I tongue her every day!" aand he went on a bit with stories of his making out sessions with Caissie lol. SO funny
- He called his parents, using an audience member's phone!! hahaha. He had his laptop and had wanted to skype with them, but the internet wasn't working, and his own cell phone was downstairs. So a girl from the audience asked if he wanted to use her phone and he did. Hilarious, and adorable
-"Holding". OMG. That SONG. *dies* It's just stunning. I need it on my ipod like, yesterday. I was sooooo happy that he did it again, because I'd been wanting to hear it so badly!
Ummm... basically the whole night was amazing haha. DEFINITELY a fantastic first Gavin concert experience
It just needed to be longerrr
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.
