a hug from shim made my whole day better! but no offense to Hurt or anyone that likes them, but they didn't seem to grateful for us to be there. i tried to tell the guirtarist that it was a good show but he ignored me. at least the pups know that they are nothing without their fans!

i felt nervous when i met them. i didnt know what to say! i told emma im a big fan and i put my hand out for a handshake, but she just gave me a fist bump,,. shim too,,. =/.. haha,,. but they signed my ticket and i told shim that i was the first person to cover you're going down(im the acoustic cover dood),. and he just said it was kool and asked what tuning i used,. but he seemed too focused on signing stuff,.,. but its understandable,,. AWESOME SHOW! it beat metallica in my book

Sick Puppies were great as always.. Venue wasn't that good.. Please see my post for the Milwaukee show..Have some vids will put them here as soon as i figure it out.

I thought they played Too Many Words at the House of Blues, but between the two shows I can't exactly remember... I do know they did Too Many Words in the acoustic set. (<3 that song)

The show was just awesome - they rocked it like they always do.

Aside from the whole being kicked out before being able to see the Pups after the show, it was an awesome night! The security there was just difficult. A couple times I had to restrain myself from making it too obvious that I was rolling my eyes at them, lol.

^Did they get Harriet?

[Crystal]

Sadly, they did not get Harriet.

AND... I was talking to Jerry before the show and he said that they had voted to get rid of the gnome, although Harold was still on Shim's amp...decapitated. Only Harold's body remained, his head was nowhere to be seen...

[Regan]

Oh my, this is horrible. Poor Harriet has to be separated from Harold for even longer. Hopefully, Harriet, Harold, and Harold's head will be reunited soon.

[Crystal]

[Regan]

The band must. I bet Shim got into a fit of rage and Harold was the closest thing. Poor guy did nothing but look high.

Here are the videos I took at this show. Please bear with me, first time I've done this.

WOW Those look AMAZING!!! How much was the recorder, if you don't mind my asking?

[Tim]

Wow, I'm suprised you got it in. Everytime I've been to a HoB security was strict. Thanks for sharing.
