Seeing Richrath Project 3:13
if anyone at all is reading this i know you're thinking "who tf is that" and I didn't even know until about a month ago myself so-
they're an REO Speedwagon/Gary Richrath tribute band that I heard was coming nearby via local radio contest giving away tickets. I REALLY wanted to go bc you know I'm an REO hoe, so I entered the contest (even tho I would've paid) and decided to contact the band about photography permission bc why not. Welp their manager lady or whoever got back to me and offered to put me on the guest list so I can get into the show for free and photograph them. Saved me $25 (which i promptly spent on a tshirt) but yeah! I've never had a band do that for me!
the 'venue' it was at (if you could even call it that) was a local rod and gun club. yeah. it was outdoors and they played under a lil pavilion while everyone brought their own folding chairs it was a very hick area but that made it unique and intimate I guess?
the whole place still gave off bad vibes tho toinrtgwnwgrf shady ass republican vibes
the opening act was this local guy and his wife...
i mean they were very good but they opened with singing God Bless America and me and my sister wanted to laugh so fucking bad and it just confirmed all the Bad Vibes we were sensing bc they did it again with another American(TM) song
THIS COUPLE'S SETLIST GAVE US WHIPLASH SO BAD it went from like god bless america to country to 2015 pop to janis joplin back to country to the cranberries to the who to sad song about vietnam and what the FUCK
anyway during this couple's act, a praying mantis flew over me and my sister and landed RIGHT in front of the husband onstage and we were like 8^D
shortly after that ANOTHER mantis almost landed on me and i was like NO NONONONONONO and kicked it away
my sister looked under our picnic table for the mantis and found a toad instead
this toad then hopped onto the lawn in front of the 'stage' like it came to watch the show
when Richrath finally came out it was sweet relief
they opened with Don't Let Him Go and the singer from afar looks exactly like Vince Neil but sounds just like Kevin it was very cursed
i kept movin around and was scared of blocking people's view but then one of the owners (?) of the venue came out right in the fucking middle to take pics with her phone and i was like aiight
the band kept posing for me i stg i was so nervous i felt like THEY were watching ME
when they played Roll With the Changes people finally came out and started dancing
the people who started the dance were a group of people around my age????? they were obviously wasted bc nobody my age around here likes REO :'3
couples were slow dancing to Can't Fight This Feeling and ;-; made me feel something
every time they went into a different song I haven't heard live I turned to my sister (who isn't an REO fan) and went :OOO
should probably mention this was the first concert ever played at this place (again this ISN'T A VENUE LMAO it's just like picnic grounds)
they introduced Flying Turkey Trot and then they had to stop in order to do a raffle for the venue erofnwerofwerging it was so fucking funny to me the way the singer was just like *picks ticket* ..."number 327538"
introducing Ridin the Storm out like "there's a storm comin" and me passing it off as a joke but apparently there WAS a storm comin
everyone dancin to Ridin the Storm Out and their encore of Born to Be Wild
me talking to each of the band members after the show and being awkward and not knowing what to say and sounding too fake and professional imo
i got a pic with the singer and he BARELY touched my ass but i think it was an accident
