yeah, i just got home from seeing AE at the El Rey. Simply intense music.
I feel really bad for all of those who got to see them and didn't like it.
Oh well, better luck next time.
Overall, I would say it was the best show I have been too in a long time.
It kept me fascinated with all of the complex textures they had. It
drained me of my energy trying to focus intently on what they were doing.
I was excited cause I got to meet Julie and Brian, Hey guys. Anyway, sorry
to all those I missed, I hope you managed to recognize me there with my
Green Lantern shirt on, I had a purple hooded sweatshirt on that probably
prevented anyone from seeing me.
