“Wake up in the morning with a head like ‘What ya done?’”

Yeah so last night was totally made of awesome. I know I said all this on Facebook when I was completely freaking out last night but I thought I’d come over here and talk a little more.

So yeah, Chris Colfer was three people away from me, dancing and singing to the live Scissor Sisters show for the New Yorker Festival. Holy crap you guys!! It was so difficult not to stare at him (which I didn’t). Maybe 4 or 5 times during the 45 minute show I looked over and that was it. Nobody around me recognized him except one guy who took a picture. Seriously, if I had been drinking I would have punched this guy. First, he was very rudely in my space and second, leave CC alone! He was obviously there to have fun, let him be! That’s why I was trying to not stare or make a noticeable fuss – even though on the inside I was dying from excitement. :)

I thought it would be funny to post on here the text messages I sent to friend of the blog Sarah while this was all going on. Reading them now, you would never know I’m in my late 20s.I’m going to type these out word for word, incorrect spellings and all (my hands were shaking so bad at the time, i was so excited)

I cannot believe he was there! Next to me!!!

I know he’s a fan that’s how I heard of the band I’m the first place but I didn’t think he’d be there! Gah!

So u don’t think I’m a stalker I’m a huge fan of the band CC not the reason I was there

And that’s the end of it. Crazy silly I know but c’mon! I had just seen him in a 90 minute interview on the other side of Manhattan and that had pretty much gone out of my head as I was listening to the interview with the Scissor Sisters and being blinded by the fabulous Jake Shears’ florescent yellow three piece suit. Then the music started and everyone is singing and dancing. A couple of songs in, I’m looking around to see if I’m the only one making a fool of myself with dancing (which I wasn’t) and there he was! Yes, three people removed but he was on this raised platform thing so he was easy to see. His one bodyguard I recognized from the earlier interview and there were about 4 other people surrounded him shielding him from us commoners. Oh man he looked good! I’m so glad nobody bugged him while he was there (at least I don’t think anyone did) and I hope my 4 glances his way were in no way offensive. :)

So in other news, guys, seriously, Scissor Sisters is AWESOME!!! So not the type of music I usually listen to but I highly recommend checking them out. The album Ta-Dah is the most accessible. They have amazing live chemistry and that I only had to pay $30 to see about an hour long show with this rocking band along with only about 100 other people + Kurt Hummel  was beyond anything I think I’ll ever get to do again.

If you’re interested in this amazing band, fair warning: they are a little…a lot…way over the top risque. I suppose the name of the band probably tipped you off on that (yes, the name comes from exactly where your dirty mind is thinking it comes from) The lead man Jake Shears loves to take his clothes off all the time (sadly he didn’t last night). But don’t let that turn you off, their music is so much fun! The band is cool, there are two lead singers: Jake and Anna Matronic and then two guitar players: Del and BabyDaddy.

Anyway, this is one of my favorite songs of theirs that Anna actually takes the lead on. Check it out! They have a new album coming out next year!!
