OK, this show was weird. I went with a bunch of my friends, including Alex, Stephanie, Dan, Chris, and Liz. We get over to this Dreamworld Place and it's like this little room with murals in the walls and there is a small makeshift stage in the far left corner. So we're sitting there, just chillin, when the first band, minus1 comes on. They were pretty cool, and I got the top of their broken guitar and the pole the lead singer was beating that stage with and a free cd.  So anyway, we're starting to get into it, because Alex, Chris, me, and some other guy (with his self-made "Ghetto-ass CREASE shirt") had started a moshpit. So we're hangin out and the fuckin' cops come. So they break the party up, because the place didn't have a permit to hold the concert. (That's why everyone got in free, they couldn't charge admission.) So we're like, damn this sucks, when Kelly busts out with, "Hey! We're taking the show to Augie's! (Augie's is this cool bar where the guys hang out.) So me, Dan, Alex, and Steph decide we'll go, 'cause we're psyched to see CREASE. So we follow Kelly and Fritz, since we have no idea where Augie's is.  So we're follwing them, blastin CREASE in the car, and the guys start going into this residential neighborhood, and it turns out we were following them to the home of Fritz! So when we get to this house, we hop out and tell Kelly we're sorry we followed them here but we have no idea where to go and he's like, oh it's ok and then we told him we needed gas so he took us to a gas station and let us get gas and then we went to Augie's. Well, Augie's was really cool. It was like a bar but the part where CREASE played in was like a third living room, a third stage, and a third of pool tables. So we sat on the couch right to the right of the band (right next to Greg), and we pretty much chilled there for the whole show, except for when we jumped up during Frustration and Stuck Like Chuck, I believe. The set they did was really cool...they played all the popular songs, Pathetic, Jenny, Frustration, Making Progress, Non-User, Stuck Like Chuck, Gravity, Butterfly Stiches, etc. They also played some really funny versions of some popular songs, and these two songs which were absolutely hilarious: they were called "Tastes like a penny" and "Shave that pig" or something like that. You'd have to have heard them to understand. In all, the show was what I have come to expect from CREASE: exciting, loud, and AWESOME!!!!
