Dan and I headed up to Seattle last night to go to the Against Me! show at the Neptune theater and I brought my camera along with my 90mm lens to sneak a few shots of the band before I hopped in the pit to scream my lungs out. Against Me! is definitely the best live band I've ever seen, but I think I might be getting too old to rock out in the mosh pit, though, I woke up with pretty much every muscle in my body aching.
We got there a few minutes early and grabbed a couple drinks at the bar across the street. I surprised Dan with VIP tickets that got us premier seating and special access to the bar, which ended up being super nice. We sat next to some guys who were also from Tacoma, so it was fun chatting with them during the opening bands.
After the show we were wiped out and starving so we drove to Dicks and got two burgers, two fries, and a strawberry shake to revive ourselves for the drive home. There's nothing like scarfing down fast food and unwinding after an awesome rock show.
