Everynight's Another Story
Dana and I went to the Grog Shop to see American Hi-Fi, The Early November, Fall Out Boy, and Trouble Is. This was the first time either of us had been to the Grog Shop. It's a nice little venue and we were within the first 3 rows of people the entire time. All 4 bands were quite good. I had heard at least some songs by all of them except Trouble Is. I'll definitely be looking for some of their mp3s now though. The crowd was pretty tame, there was some crowd surfing during The Early November's set, including band members jumping into the crowd, which is always fun. This was their last show of the tour and the other bands came on stage during their set and toilet papered them which was pretty amusing. American Hi-Fi played a good set, and took requests after they played through their set. All in all it was quite an enjoyable evening.

Concerts
I'm posting this list of concerts that I'd like to go to in the next month or so mainly for my own reference because there are so many of them, but anyone reading this that wants to go to one or more of the shows should let me know. If you haven't heard of the bands, I have mp3s of them.
The Movielife, One Line Drawing, Static Lullaby, Senses Fail (?), Vendetta Red (?)
Agora
Friday March 21
Note: I'm pretty sure Vendetta Red is playing and not Senses Fail, so I'm not too interested in this show anymore.
The Ataris, Juliana Theory, Further Seems Forever
Agora
Wed Mar 26
Note: This is the first date for the Ataris tour, should be an excellent show. I saw Juliana Theory with Something Corporate and they were ok live. I saw Further Seems Forever with New Found Glory and they were really good.
American Hi-Fi, Fall Out Boy, Early November, Trouble Is
Grog Shop
Fri Mar 28
Note: I'm definitely going to this show because I've never been to the Grog Shop. American Hi-Fi should be fun. The Art of Losing is a catchy song and it was played during Malcolm in the Middle last night. I have a few mp3s of Fall Out Boy and they sound pretty good and Early November is decent too. I don't know anything about Trouble Is.
Taking Back Sunday, From Autumn to Ashes, Recover, Somehow Hollow
Agora
Wed April 2
Note: I'd really like to see Taking Back Sunday. Their songs are very strong lyrically and you can feel their emotion just listening to their album, so I'm sure they'll be amazing live.
Ben Folds, Tegan and Sara
Severance Hall
Wed April 16
Note: For $8, I have to go to this. Also Sarah says Tegan and Sara are good.
Allister, Fall Out Boy, Don't Look Down
Agora Ballroom
Thurs April 17
Note: I'm definitely going to this show, the Agora Ballroom is a nice small venue. Sarah and I had a blast when Allister played there after the Finch show a few weeks ago.
New Found Glory, Good Charlotte, Less Than Jake
Tower City Amphitheater
Friday April 28
Note: NFG, probably my favorite "punk" band.
