lawrence kansas - 3/4

imanodoubtaholic - 3-8-2004 at 02:31 AM

don't have any pictures BUT, that had to be one of THE most amazing shows i've ever seen. i have been addicted to their cd since about mm.. november/december.. like it never left my car.. etc. so when i found out they'd be playing even remotely close to me i was SO excited. i new that their live shows were intense but holy meatballs! such an inadequate word - intense. they played the usual setlist with the only bside being std dance. i had the best spot in the house, the stage came up to my waist, i was in front of the center monitor. front and center.. AMAZING show i tell you, from the opening of song #1 to the end of here come the bombs. and as if to add a cherry to the top of my towering sundae of fun, alex seemed to have a crush on me! OOOH the ecstasy! during dirty life, the lines "i'm coming for you....etc...i wanna FUCK FUCK FUCK.." i get a face full of gyrations. yum. and on black jettas " can't pay attention to my new girl" he pointed and sang to me as if i was his new girl. all the other girls were jealous! :lol: i think what happened was, a lot of the other girls that were even into it (which wasn't a whole lot maybe 4 or 5), all wanted to touch him, but he wanted me to touch him, and i wouldn't touch him. i dont know if anyone gets the jist (or gist) of that but me.
i'm now absolutely in love with this band (alex in particular).. even more so than before. the show was from my point of view having alex literally in your face the whole set - it was undefinable. intrusive, but in such an incredibly good way. in a nutshell, the show was like really good sex.
i just found out too that i'm in the pictures of the lawrence show on the official website! (i'm in red) i feel like the arch bishop of flavor careening down the whirly slide of fun!
sorry if this was extremely long and boring, but i dont really have many people to talk about this with, no one i know even knows who ima robot are.. except my brother but he's sick to death of it.
i am officially in love with alex ebert.

oh oh, one more thing, as i arrived, i was walking to the club from where i parked in a borders parking lot, it was quite early yet, and walked right past tim! didnt have the balls to say anything to him, he seemed like he was in his own world, and i didnt want to bother him. but i did follow him back to borders. watched him buy something from the cafe and then i left. AND during the sounds, she was kind of drunk and fell right off the front of the stage. it was great, she kept singing when she was down and got up and laughed it off.
i am quivering with anticipation for the next ima robot show. oh my let it be soon as i am now an addict.

Ha! Glad you had fun! I have 3 shows within the next week! And you should have stopped Tim for a moment..I think the guys truly love hearing from their fans..:yes:

Athena - 3-8-2004 at 08:33 AM

Hey that's great thanks for giving the low down! Starting to see a pattern in Alex's stage-play, which is cool. Sound's like a dynamic show as always!

Smitty2Jones - 3-8-2004 at 09:20 AM

Wow, it's so rare I see anyone on a message board (especially from a band not from Kansas) that goes to a Kansas show... Where are you from? I hail from just south of Topeka...

I can honestly say, they were the best "opening" band I have ever seen live... Just so... alive and insane!

Yeah, I know what you mean Athena.


That's great you had an awesome time at the show! They are truly wonderful live and a lot of fun!

I looked up their new photos on the .Com site, and some of them are really good. Everybody on here should check them out. It's under the News section.:D

Phobiac - 3-8-2004 at 12:49 PM

lurker - 3-8-2004 at 04:07 PM

where can i download the STD dancE mp3?
or does anybody have it?

poobs - 3-8-2004 at 04:12 PM

There are some live versions available in the Download section of this site..As far as a recorded version, you would have to buy the Alive single or the Song #1 single..

lurker - 3-8-2004 at 04:15 PM

:(...maybe kazaa will do, although i bought the CD:)

imanodoubtaholic - 3-8-2004 at 11:35 PM

i'm from the missouri side of things, south of kansas city, about 5 minutes south of lee's summit to be exact. i drove about an hour to the bottleneck. it was perfect.
i really felt weird about talking to tim, he was giving off this "i'm trying to be normal at the moment.." vibe. but i SHOULD have talked to him and justin and oli after the show. but alas, my nerves got the better of me. next time, next time....
i'm jealous alex touched some of you! ugh. i'm supposed to be his new girlfriend!! :P
i had THE BEST time. and i would ilke to say thanks for the warm responses! this has got to be one of the more cooler message boards/forums out there.

MichelleRene - 3-9-2004 at 07:07 AM

Now I'm sad. When the Bot played in Baltimore I didn't get a kiss....Alex practically ran the other way:lol::lol::lol: I think I scared him because I was running around taking candid photos of everyone. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:


imanodoutaholic that's great you had a blast and like the forum! This is a great message forum:

Thanks to Phobiac and Draconian!!!!! They have put alot of time and dedication into this board! You two are the BEST!:yes:

:lol: poobs you always crack me up!

poobs - 3-9-2004 at 10:05 AM

Ha! Well I'm glad..I crack myself up sometimes, too..Like the time I was talking to my mom on the phone and cleaning the walls along the stairs and I took a step back cuz I thought I was on the first step and I fell down 4 steps..:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

RoboticTerrorSTD - 3-10-2004 at 12:11 AM

:lol: nice real nice. I remeber meaning to skip a step at school a long time ago and I ended up missing 3! I felt like a Fantastic-ASS!!!:lol: and then realizing I sprained my ankle.:rolleyes:

MichelleRene - 3-10-2004 at 06:25 AM

I ususally fall down because I'm only 5'2" and I like to wear platforms to make me look (normal height ) taller, and if I go out to a club, have a beer, I usually fall on my whoopsey daisey....:lol: especially if I try to dance....I'm as graceful as a ballerina:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

poobs - 3-10-2004 at 08:14 AM

:lol::lol: Your whoopsie daisy? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

This one time I had been sitting at my desk at work all morning, so I got up to stretch and my left foot just gave out on me..In the middle of the office..I just started laughing and people were asking if I was ok and I just laughed it off..Then I went to the bathroom and cried my eyes out..The ankle had already started to swell and it hurt so bad..I sprained my ankle, too Robotic! :duh:

MichelleRene - 3-10-2004 at 08:46 AM
