I am struggling with my phone this morning. For the first time ever I filled up the memory. I know. Mostly it's because I took a shit ton of videos yesterday. I have freed up 9gb already but have a ways to go. The problem is that I don't have the ability to just use the cable and I have to send them all to like google drive. It's the upload time that's killing me. I can't do any kind of direct connection so I have to send it up the hotel network and then to drive. Annoying.

I have a headache this morning but it's mostly due to the air conditioning unit. I can't wait to sleep in my own bed this week even if it is only for three days. Better than nothing let me tell you.

What a crazy day. Got up, headed to the concert around 10. Lines were already forming. I want to leave a little earlier to avoid some of them today. We'll see how that goes. Got inside at 11 and went straight for a locker and merch. Glad we did that. The lockers sold old and the merch lines were crazy all day. We ended up buying way too many t-shirts but it's all good. We saw a few bands in the morning but most sucked and we only half paid attention. We did get to the rail for EODM. That's one of the reasons my phone filled up. Saw NIN and Perfect Circle from the VIP area. That was good. The VIP section is much better this time around. Overall the whole venue is much better laid out and organized. We had chicken and waffles for dinner, pork sliders for lunch.

There were plenty of drunk idiots to contend with especially as the night rolled in. But we were slightly isolated in our area. More importantly we were able to stand in spots that made it easy to see the stage without being crushed. And now for tonight we know where the good spots are. It all helps.

We ran into friends who were just there to see NIN. They are hard core fans. They go to every show no matter how much the cost. I can't imagine just going to see one band and leaving. But hey to each their own.

My feet are killing me, my back aches, and I don't know if I can do a second day, but hey, that's rock n roll bitches. Suffer through the pain.

I need breakfast.

Today there's only three bands we care about. But of course it's 2pm, 6pm, and then Ozzy at 7:30. Hopefully we will be out by 9 tonight. Get a good night's sleep before flying home tomorrow.
