A Day To Remember Atlanta 4/15/11

Going to a concert is always a great way to spend a spring break. Not to mention a concert in the middle of a lightning storm, under a small tree, by a piece of metal, in an outdoor venue the size of a backyard with 3,999 of your closest friends. Epic WIN! We Came As Romans opened this show. They played about 6 or 7 songs (I think). Then Pierce the Veil busted out on stage with Black and Yellow by Wiz Khalifa. Then they rolled on with Besitos, The Boy Who Could Fly, Yeah Boy and Doll Face, Bulletproof Love, Like A G6, Caraphernelia. During YBADF, he pulled this girl named Alexandria out of the crowd and brought her on stage. Let's just say that it was humorous and i was insanely jealous of her. And during Caraphernelia, Jeremy from ADTR joined them on stage to do his screaming parts. sexy. After their set was over, Bring Me The Horizon came on. They played It Never Ends, Diamonds Aren't Forever, Alligator Blood, Fuck, Blessed With a Curse, Anthem, and Chelsea Smile. Oli Sykes has such a beautiful British Accent. Finally it was *drum roll* A DAY TO REMEMBER time! That was when the downpour officially began. It rained super hard for the first half of their set But the rain made it more memorable, in my opinion. They had an epic setlist too:
Sticks & Bricks
The Danger In Starting A Fire
A Shot In The Dark
You Be Tails, I'll Be Sonic
My Life For Hire
All I Want
I'm Made Of Wax, Larry, What Are You Made Of? (Jeremy got in a hamster ball and rolled out through the crowd)
All Signs Point To Lauderdale
Mr. Highway's Thinking About the End
This Is The House That Doubt Built
2nd Sucks
Monument
Homesick
Why Walk On Water When We've Got Boats (circle pit break out)
Have Faith In Me
You Should've Killed Me When You Had The Chance
The Plot To Bomb The Panhandle
ENCORE:
If It Means A Lot To You
The Downfall Of Us All (whole crowd mosh pit)

Jeremy said in the middle of the show that his friends in Ocala, FL., would not stand out in the rain all day to see them perform and he thanked us for sticking with them. He also talked about how Atlanta was one of the first cities they played not in their home state. He also came out at the end and said "I have some good news and i've got some bad news. the bad news is that we have to stop playing. but the good news is WE'LL BE BACK THIS SUMMER ON WARPED TOUR!!!!" *cue screaming crowd* This show was one that should be memorable for everyone that went whether they like a day to remember or not (no pun intended)
