Hello guys! I wanted to post a new entry right after the Lifehouse concert last Saturday but I was so tired (not really) that I just surfed the net when I got home at 12 in the morning. Hmm, actually I should’ve slept, but no! Hahaha. It’s becoming a bad habit, actually.
Continuing my story.. Last Saturday Alex and I went to Araneta Coliseum for the 2nd time to watch Lifehouse! I got to buy tickets a month early, but realized when we got inside the stadium that we got the wrong patron section tickets! :doh: I bought PT106, which is one patron box farther from the stage, should’ve been PT107 instead since it’s closer. Rawr. But it’s okay because I got to record good audio from the videos I have from the concert here. Yah, well, IDK if I’ll post them online.. seems like there’s a lot of better videos on YouTube. ;;)
So much for regretting. We got there 15 minutes before 8PM, according to the ticket it’s supposed to start ‘on time’ but Lifehouse came out at quarter to 9PM! WTF. :hmph: On with the show, the people cheered, of course. 
I was happy to see the band infront of me. Sad to say I didn’t enjoy it THAT much. I mean, it was OKAY… but of course, more of like ‘it could’ve been better’ if only they also played ‘Everything’. Everyone was anticipating to hear Everything live, most of the people kept on chanting it but according to a forum Jason Wade (vocalist) was not aware that the song is a big hit here. Ouch. They definitely owe us that song, and I sure hope they will come back here after 4 years or so. 
I hope you guys now know what my title means,. 
I don’t literally mean Everything, okay? I meant the song. Look it up at Imeem, it’s a beautiful song and I recommend it to everyone.
Here’s the setlist of the songs they played, I got it from the official Lifehouse thread at PEx Forums (bolded songs are the ones I know).
Make Me Over, Spin, Am I Ever Gonna Find Out, Simon, Hanging By A Moment, Blind, Take Me Away, Someone Else’s Song, From Where You Are, Bridges, Better Luck Next Time, Whatever It Takes, You And Me, First Time
encore: Disarray, Broken
In my opinion, I think the night would’ve been super amazing (sorry for the lack of a much ‘cool’ term) if they played the following songs live: EVERYTHING, Breathing, Cling & Clatter, Chapter 1, Come Back Down, Only One, Sick Cycle Carousel & Walking Away. I didn’t get to sing to much of the songs, even to the ones I know, sad. 
Yeah concerts are definitely fun if you can sing to most if not, ALL, of the songs they play. It’s more exciting, enjoyable, memorable that way!
Actually, all those are my favorite songs from them, HAHA! Biased, much? It’s okay.. all in all, I’m contented with the Lifehouse experience :worthy: . Better experienced than regretting not going that night, right? I saw some familiar faces that night as well! Joaqui Mendoza from PBB (did I got his name right? ) was with a girl that night, I dunno who she is. Two tall *cute* (no to me) college, athelete-looking men.. they look like their UAAP players or some college heartthrobs, LOL. Cause I saw some high school girls going to them to get their picture taken with them, hahaha. That’s so highschool! 
Jk.
Enough with the talk.. I know everyone wants to see pics because they look more interesting than reading my boring story about the show. I have more but they’re locked up in my Multiply album, hee. Hope you like these I post here. 
This is the best shot I got that has all the band members on it.

It’s August next week and it’s the last month of my first term in Soph year here in college. On Wednesday, same week, is the course encoding week as well. That means I have to make my way in the computer really early to get a good schedule. I hope to get a good schedule for next term, the kind of schedule where I’ll always have a companion during breaks and stuff. :pray: Wish me luck!

Wow. Buti you went there.

As much as I want to go and enjoy in these concerts, I have to save money for “Peanut” (The name of my new iPod) *Sorry for reiterating*
Oh yeah, encoding na next week. Good luck sa schedule ko. I don’t wanna be alone next term.

I love Lifehouse too.
Especially their songs Hanging by the Moment, Whatever It Takes, and You and Me.
And I do wish they played Come Back Down. I love that song. HAHA. As if naman I went there noh.

Hmm, I just searched Everything on Imeem and it does sound good. :> Although it’s kind of boring.. Haha. The version I heard is. But the message is love.
And the chorus, OMG.

Parang I read a blog entry about the Lifehouse concert rin, tapos parang pareho kayo ng opinion — that concert could have been better if they played a different set of songs or something like that, hehe

August 4th, 2008 at 2:24 am
I was kinda shocked nga when I saw your title. I thought this was a hate post on the concert or something then I read the post and I was like, “ahhh Everything the song!!” hahaha naks.
I used to love Lifehouse back then. Still kinda do until now, only because Sick Cycle Carousel will always be a big part of my life
August 4th, 2008 at 7:10 am
I remember Lifehouse was supposed to come to my city for this music festival. My friends and I waited all night, and they ended up being a no-show since one of them got food poisoning.
Anyway, your lucky to have seen them. They’re amazing.
August 4th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
