BLINDED

Yeah, “Blinded” is the name of their new single. Sure, “Blinded” has a subtle reference to the band name. But last night, my eyes were wide open in awe of how many hot girls i saw at the show.

It was Shwin and Christian in one car, and me, Allen, Joey, and Zania blasting Avril Lavigne in another car. We headed out to Worchester to catch Third Eye Blind, live @ Holy Cross. It’s this college about an hour outside of Boston, and it definitely resembled what life would have been like at a smaller state college of sorts. An actual campus existed, and there was an assortment of short-haired, clean-cut guys and perhaps an over abundance (dare i say it?) of really cute college chicks. It was unreal. We were all in awe. 

There was virtually no promotion done for this show, as it was a college gig that was intended pretty much for the students of this particular college. It was a rather intimate show, considering 3eb has played stadiums. AM Radio opened. The concert took place in their gym, called the “Hart Center”. At times it almost felt like a dream. I felt like i was in some sort of alternate dimension, where there were tons of cute girls surrounding us in a school gym and to top it off, you’ve got one of your fav bands playing live music for you.

I remember thinking that my surroundings were seemingly an extension of what high school would have been like had there been a 13th grade. Ah, the mysterious path untaken. Haha, oh well. I suppose after going to school with a bunch of musicians, and living in the city, you forget about the type of crowd you grew up around. It was nostalgic and very refreshing in a way. And the girls…oh man.. I remember we thought to ourselves…”So THIS is where they’ve all been hiding!!”
Who would’ve thought that some of the cutest girls in Massachussetts were actually an hour outside of Boston, at this small and selective school in Worcester? Mind blowing..




Oh, and by the way, the concert was good.
