Did you know that of the 9 Incubus concerts I've been to, 8 were while I was living in LA? They (the band) were the first real celebrities I got to meet when I first moved down there in 2001 for my freshman year at 'SC. I waited in line for six hours at a Warehouse Records (back when record stores still existed) with another friend from my dorm to get a wristband and a copy of their latest CD, "Morning View," which we could get signed the next night. We waited in line for four hours the next night. I was so flustered when I met them that I'm not even sure if what I said to Brandon Boyd when he was signing my CD was in English.
Not that I'm obsessed or anything...
I really miss Southern California right now. I miss LA. I miss everything about it.
Fun fact: did you know that the above video is actually not the original video for the song? They decided to reshoot it because this video came out right after 9/11 and the original depicts the band running from a screaming mob of girls. Personally, I think the video they went with is so much better...
The more you know...
