Nickelback with Breaking Benjamin – May 5th 2010 – Spokane Arena
Having never been a huge fan of the band, but a huge fan of Cinco De Mayo, I jumped at the chance to see one of the biggest rock/pop acts of the new millennium; Nickelback. I of course was not alone in the perspective that if you are gonna get loaded beyond belief on this Mexiamericana holiday you should party with Canadians.
I kicked of my fifth of May drinking debacle at “the Viking” with a couple of mexi beers and then was off to stand in the 15,000 person line. To no surprise Spokane’s finest filled the sidewalks in front of the arena. By the looks of the rockers in attendance, it must have been a quiet evening in Hillyard.
Let me be honest. It was my birthday the next day and since this was my only night off, I decided to intoxicate my body heavily with ice cold Budweiser to achieve the proper chi for the concert. The following transcripts are the drunken twitters I sent during the show. By the way follow us on Twitter and you can be in on the fun next time!
Wow Shinedown! Playing “simple man” to a arena full of lighters.
Ten minutes in and just saw our first puker. Amateur.
Beeeeeeeerrrr!!!
Nickelback is all about mutha fuckin’ flames bitches!
Chad hates it when girls eat ice cream, popsicles, lollipops and bananas.
Guy next to me just informed me that Nickelback is better than Led Zeppelin.
Chad asks “remember when you lost your virginity? That spring break in Mexico?” the lady behind me yells ” In Montana!”
Why are all dudes from Canada named “Chad”
Just saw Jimmy and Preston from London Get Down. Said they did stand up 69′s back stage.
How the fuck did a mosh pit start during “photograph” by Nickelback?
