Last night was the greatest TON show I have ever been too. First off the Stone Pony is smaller than my living room. There were like 500 users at that place. Since I was determined to get pics of everyone in the band I moved up to the Suicide Pit. After getting kicked in the face, molested, harassed, thrown to the ground, punched in the gut I still have to say that was the greatest night of my life!! TON played for like 2 hours!!!!!!! Keep in mind this place was well over 110 degrees!!! I got hundreds of pictures of Peter, Kenny, Jonny, Josh!!!!! Oh my God I musta gotten at least 50 of the great snow scene in Too Late.
They opened up with Prelude to Agony which got the crowd goin insane!!!!! Thats when everyone at the Stone Pony decided to pile up on me. Thats okay it was fun. Second song...Love You To Death.... Best song TON ever played live!!!!! I was speechless at the end!! its like a whole new song live!! The intro to it is absolutely spectacular. Its almost sad!! Wow...Love You To Death was just absolutely terrific!!! BTW...TON sounds nothing like they used to. They do not sound like the cheesy bootlegs everyone has. Since their all rich and famous now, they use high quality equipment and its just amazing how they put it to use. Peter's voice is flawless and so is Kenny's. Peter's jokes are ten more funny then they used to be. I love this band!
Anyway back to the show. The crowd was just awed with Love You To Death. Christian Woman and Light My Fire were also played with the customary apologies to the doors. Cinnamon Girl was played! Oh my God they played In Praise of Bacchus!!!!!!!! It was amazing!!!!!!! So beautiful!!!!!!!!! No fu** ups!!!! And a light show to go with it!!!!!!!!! Haha users were like "You suck, You suck" (u have to be a fan to understand this) and Peter was like "awww...dont hurt my feelings. Now I'm mad. And wwhen I get mad...i get horny...and when I get horny I f**k your mothers.." Then he stuck his middle finger up and said "this is the size of momy's uterus" everyone was crackin up!! After Kill All the White users he said, "I promise next time we play that we'll have it translated into Ebonics" Yet again the crowd was crackin up. They played TOO Late and it was spectacular..the snow baby the snow!!!! I LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then Pete was like "This next song is about a man who turns into a werewolf everytime he engages in oral sex with a menstruating woman. Whats a little blood between friends?" WOLF MOON KICKED ASSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! FU**IN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YA BABY!!!!!!!! OO OOOOOOOH. Anyway then Pete was like "This is a song about 2 beautiful women and a very lucky male..I myself go to bed with my left hand." They ripped into My Girfriends Girlfriend with this kick ass keyboard intro that made the song even more psychedelic than the album version!!! WOOHAAA!!! I was screamin my lungs out singin along!! Peter then remarked on how much his Gatorade sucked! Then they went into like a newer version of Black #1 with new bass lines, new special affects, and Peter adding some words he usually forgets and leaves out. He than thanked everyone for coming and that if they stay a while they can get to see a demonstration of how to put on a condom. He also said something like "without you we are nothing" and waved goodbye.
When the lights came on I ran to the front and being the lucky 15 year old male that I am I got Peter's leaves that were on his mic!!!!! YES!!!! THAT JUST MADE MY NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOHOOOOO and two new shirts!!!!!!! GET THE SHIRT WITH THE MILITARY GUY WITH THE VINNLAnD FLAG IT IS F***IN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST TON SHIRT YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
