“Unforgettable.” -Tour Diary: West Palm

December 7th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Uncategorized

Well, we barely made the show. Flight was delayed twice, but we finally got off the ground and got to the show with just moments to spare.

Was great to see our old friends in Chevelle, brothers Sam and Pete, and they helped us out with some gear. Very thankful to them.  Such good peeps.  Nice to be around bands that are cool and kind and have great energy.  And if you haven’t checked out their cd, you should.  Produced by my old friend and co-conspirator Brian Virtue.

In typical Floridian fashion the show was great. 12,000 people filled the amphitheater. We hadn’t headlined a show this big in over a year so it was very exciting to say the least. Best moment was when everyone came down from the lawn to the seats for This Is War. Unforgettable.

Thanks John O’Connell, The Buzz and everyone who came out to West Palm!!!

So crazy our cd THIS IS WAR comes out on Tuesday!!!!!! Been a long time coming. We sold and signed over 1000 cds tonight! Amazing and very grateful to everyone who bought one. So great to meet and see the actual people who will be listening to this new album.

P.S. Here’s a pic I took after everyone was gone…in case you ever wondered what it looked liked after the show.

    this post is wonderful, it is rare to find artists so famous and always busy, writing his thoughts and share such personal feelings with the rest of the world …

    Yes I have always wondered what you would see after a concert and see what the artists a stage (not a stage at a karaoke:-p) … thanks for your thoughts and these glimpses of life! I do not understand why no one has commented yet!

    Finally……

    My compliments to you and the crew. You've come so far since the year I came to know you. Everything about you Jared, was and is like a shining star, far above this world, you are a ray of light that gives hope, for this world in which we are. Thank you for your inspiration and appreciation. I admire your love for our planet and passion to teach the world compassion, for our Mother Earth.

    *R.I.P.* "Brett Kashmere" Thank you for introducing me* *to your closest friend, Jared Leto, which gave me the* *pleasure of spending the moments I did with him.*

    *They were short, but, oh so sweet!!! Thank you!*

    I was fortunate to have met, Jared and brother Shannon, through a roommate of mine back in 1993 while I was living in Santa Monica. Jared had just started on the cast of "My So Called Life" and Shannon had just begun getting started with band, "30 Seconds to Mars." Upon introduction to Jared and Shannon it seemed easy to recognize these, "diamonds in the rough." They were quite different in many ways, but, obvious they shared a drive for life with a fierce desire.

    It is a pleasure being able to say you were once an acquaintence of mine, and I'm excited for the accomplishments that you have made. Certainly, there will be many more to come. If it were possible, maybe we could reunite for a night when you are going to be in L.A. Back in the days, Brett would have had Me on the list to every show. Wishes of a long lost friend…"Unforgettable"…
