Rooney

Rooney ATX Show Review

well last night i had the most ultimate rooney experience. i met and took pics with matt, robert and taylor before the show. I got there like maaaybe 4 hours before the doors opened, and they were pretty nice. Mischa barton was also there, looking like a top model and NOTHING like she does in the tabloids. everyone was kinda staring her down like they wanted to spit on her, i , on the other hand wanted to go up to her to express to her she inspires my outfits daily (well, most days..sometimes she goes too native american for me). shes really pretty and really tall. once inside, i was front row center. the crowd was a lil skeptical when the bridges were playing, but i enjoyed their music and they all had some cute outfits on. Locksley followed, they did an AWESOME job and pumping the crowd up. I met them later that night and they were sweeeeeeties, too bad there were some girls around them trying to trade birthcontrol for a tshirt (i think they were on something) and making complete jackasses of themselves. ANYWAY, rooney was amazing, as expected. Robert seemed way more into the show this time.When they opened up for the spree, the stage was really congested and i wasnt feeling it too much. THEN in the middle of the show they bust out the ROONEY flag and robert HANDS IT TO ME. I guess cause i didnt stop jumping. singing.dancing. throughout the beginning of the show. so i started waving the flag, but it got pretty heavy and i didnt wanna obscure the crowds vision of ned, matt or robert AND i was kinda hitting some girls accidently, which i think heavily annoyed them. but, whatever i appologized AND theyd be doing the same if they had the flag. When the show ended, we waited like 20 min and met locksley then robert cameout. there werent too many people around him, everyone was pretty chill. then ned followed a little rushed, but i was able to get 2 pics with him, because he didnt like the way he came out in one of them. then i got all of them to sign my details mag. except LOUIS!!! which totally bummed me out because he was the only signature and pic i was missing and scotty was bitchin at 'bob' to book it and get on the bus.. so i asked robert if louis was still on the bus and he said he'd tell him to come out. then. like a knight in shining armour, louis appeared. he was really nice and remembered us by saying, "oh you girls were the ones in the front" which was pretty flippin sweet. all in all, i got all my shit signed and i got some pics. which was totally worth waiting and getting jacked those 75 bucks when i was supossed to see them with the jb and then the venue pulled them. no grudges. oh! and robert also said this was the last CTW tour, then they were gonna head to cali and take a break. GOOD THOSE DUDES NEED SOME SERIOUS TIME OFF!!! so...yea the end! oh, ill post the pics on my myspace when ive finished uploading. they are quite delicious.

oh, and I've been meaning to ask--did anyone get any video of Locksley at the Austin show? I'm bummed out because my friend didn't figure out how to work her video camera until halfway through Rooney's set (she got a couple pictures of Locklsey though) and all I had was a disposable camera I didn't know how to use... :( (lol yes, sadly enough I couldn't figure it out)

ha for real! I'm already excited for the next tour to come!

hey and i have some video of Locksley i'll put those up on youtube too. :)

Your pictures are really cute! And to address the comment about the lack of Ned's wedding band. He wears it on the chain around his neck. I'm assuming it is more comfortable while he is drumming. I'm not a drummer though so I have no idea.

yeah i know that. i was just trying to be funny bc all my friends know i want to molest ned. :P

I have only seen Locksley once, but when I saw them I wasn't too impressed. Granted, I couldn't understand a word of what the lead was singing. I think I probably caught a bad night though because everyone has seemed to love them. Was it just bad acoustics or is that their "sound"?

cause they sounded ok at the austin show...or maybe its cause i knew the words to most of the songs?

I thought they sounded pretty good as well, but I also could barely understand Jesse's singing. However, since I also know the words, I knew what he was saying...as for that being their "sound," the album versions of the songs are much clearer, so...perhaps you could listen to them on myspace? not to try to force them on you or anything, haha. I'm just guessing that you did either catch a bad night or had bad acoustics.

Okay, thank you! I have no problem checking out bands before shows, but I was just expecting different things from Locksley. I had just heard a lot about them being amazing so I figured I would just love them from the first song.

They actually remind me of the Red Walls in regards to their stage show. I adore them to death, but it is almost impossible to understand Logan onstage. The cd's are wonderful, but enjoying the songs are hard live with his method of singing. It is easy to enjoy the music though and their beats because they are so enthusiastic.

i saw a girl with a redwalls tshirt and i was like sweetass shirt and she just kinda made me a face and was like "u know who they are?" and i was like "uh yeah ive seen them live"

hahaha
first off I totally agree with your review. and when the guys switched roles on "keep on rockin in the freeworld" that was awesome! I got them on video. oh and those girls talking to Locksley were really on something... ha
second, I met you!
I was the one right behind you with the black and white rooney shirt on, with my mom we hung out with you and your friend throughout the show with the other two girls who were right next to me.
It was really a great show,considering it was my first headlining show to go to of theirs - since the other Houston ones were canceled- it was pretty awesome!
Can't wait for the next tour and new songs!
And it was nice meeting you, i don't think i got your name but i'm arianna. :)

I think I might've seen you, and you might've possibly spoken to my friend. were you the one who asked to see my friend's t-shirt? she was wearing the black with the white circular design thing on it, and you were talking about how it came in gold or something. or maybe one of your friends did? you do look familiar (based on your profile pic). I know I was at least near you--I had the bear tee on, and I wear glasses?

THE BLONDE ONE SINGING TO LOCKSLEY?!?!!?!?

heh heh, maaaaaybe. XD aw, how embarrassing that someone actually saw me singing, lol! yes, I knew all the words to Locksley except for two songs that I'd never heard before. and I might have been dancing just a bit...hahaha.

haha no worries. i thought it was cool you knew some songs! i was relieved not to be the only one. they are amazing.

first off I totally agree with your review. and when the guys switched roles on "keep on rockin in the freeworld" that was awesome! I got them on video. oh and those girls talking to Locksley were really on something... ha
second, I met you!
I was the one right behind you with the black and white rooney shirt on, with my mom we hung out with you and your friend throughout the show with the other two girls who were right next to me.
It was really a great show,considering it was my first headlining show to go to of theirs - since the other Houston ones were canceled- it was pretty awesome!
Can't wait for the next tour and new songs!
And it was nice meeting you, i don't think i got your name but i'm arianna. :)

ARGH I'm so jealous. you got to meet Rooney. My friend's parents were getting really crabby and wanted to go home, so I had to run around getting Locksley's signatures and then we left. aaahhh! that's really annoying. I was so ticked at her parents because I had really wanted to stay. We were driving back to San Antonio that night, but still. It's Rooney! agh. *dies of jealousy* and now I'll have to wait a friggin year...

but yes. The Locksley boys were really sweet, from the two seconds that I was able to interact with them. oh, and I saw you, with the flag. I was maybe four or five people to your left, secondish row in front of Matt. I liked your outfit! :D

We got in just before three. I would have loved to take you up on that offer, but I doubt my friend's parents would have let me go with a "stranger." I really appreciate you saying that, though :)

I was tempted to make a topic so that the boardies going to the Austin show could plan to meet each other, but I didn't want to sound creepy myself so I didn't. Oh well. We can do it next time, right? haha :D
