This is their first show after the Grammies, so consider it a celebration show ;)

fairywhisper
01-10-2004, 01:25 PM
yay party! drinks all around!!! :D i just hope they win a grammy! they do deserve all of the ones they were nominated for. i just hope people will begin to appriciate evanescence, i mean they work there butts off night after night and they write all the music. i dont think the public knows that. they usually think of evanescence as the band in daredevil. just like last week; my bf works at a CD store and this one dude wanted Fallen, and he asked, 'do u have the CD efernescene? (yea he said it like that, even thinkinng the CD is called that!) the gurl in daredevil soundrack? (oh wow, he thought it was only a girl, eh?)

Hey Ya'll

Althought I don't have the tickets in my hand yet, I'm prtty sure I'll be in the Loge row EEE . :twisted:

My sister and I are going early to see if we can meet up with ppl from here and/or track down the band somehow. The Wiltern isn't too big so who knows. And after the Grammies maybe the band will be excited to celebrate with their fans?

Who knows.... I just hope to hook up with ppl I've met from here before and make new friends too.
Happy Birthday fairywhisper and crofty! (a lot early) I hope all your EV dreams come true!

If there is gonna be a meet up time or place.. let me know I'll be there! Otherwise I'll be the weirdo stalking aroud the venue way too early for my own good. ( wait does that describe all of us?)

Anyhow, looking forward to it!

01-20-2004, 04:50 PM
I'm gonna stalk around after 2PM and have been PMing some ppl about meeting up! (You know who you are :D )

ANYONE that actually wants to get together..either B4 or after the show to hang and spaz...I'm all for it. It's more fun stalking surrounded by like minded dorks (and I mean that in the best way ;) ) Anyone know anyplace good to eat afterward??

Why can't it be February 10th today? grrrr :evil:

Name's Dai [ like Diana ], so yeah. ;] I guess we're gonna hang around the venue. Can't miss us.

I regret to say, though I had tix for the original show at the palladium, that I will be preparing for the drive to San Jose and won't be at the Wiltern show. I'll miss meeting up with those going, but my drive to the Bay Area starts at 7AM so I am going to be forced to pass on the Wiltern, especially since the availability of good seats is probably very limited at this point. I shall be there in spirit! Have fun guys!

Ok even though I posted my own thread about this in the north america section I still feel like I got to post here too, since hardly anyone responded to it I thought nobody on the evboard was from around here so I was kinda feeling bumed but now I see that there are so many of you that are going to be there, im going to be there at about 7 in the morning with my guitar so if anyone wants to sing along to a couple Ev songs or just keep me company, be there. I know 7 is really early but I have no other choice.

OK I live in the AV right now, I've lived here for a year and don't really know much of the LA area very well. I don't think I've ever even drove by the Wiltern, so I know nothing about it. Can anyone here give a few details about the place?

How's the parking?
How strict are they with rules like cameras, etc?
Ect, etc, etc....

Thanks and see you there!

02-05-2004, 06:58 PM
the wiltern is a cool place, kind of old but recently remodled with lots of history. it's not the best sounding place, but it rocks. i am sure the band will max out all the sound they can. pull up the web site www.thewiltern.com to get the address and seating chart, then go to mapquest for the best directions. parking is across the street south of the theater, if you get there late you may have trouble finding a spot. always be aware that you are not in the best part of L.A. stay alert, find a friend. it is always best not to bring anything metal that will send you back to your car. i have been to shows at the wiltern were they have almost stripped searched you to letting you walk in with no search. i am sure that there will be some kind of search with an all ages show. have a great time, 5 days and counting.

Hey guys, I registered a long time ago, but as my title says, I mostly lurk. Anyway, I have a situation. I kept my tickets from the Palladium concert, assuming this Wiltern one would accept them, because the website said the Palladium concert was rescheduled. I even went to Ticketmaster and they confirmed for me that they will be allowing people with the Palladium tickets in. I just want to make sure that this is the case, so I don't get stuck in a messy situation...

ut oh! DUDE REFUND YOUR TICKETS RIGHT NOW!!!! I did the same thing but called the Wiltern to make sure.... they said no dice.. i went through about an hour and a half on the phone with ticketmaster arguing... finally i got them to credit my tickets and get Wiltern tickets instead.

OMG what an awesome concert! Atomship was so-so. Default kicked ass. Evanescence put on probably the best performance I've ever seen at a concert. The ovation at the end was pretty good too. Didn't think people were ever gonna leave, then they came out... 1 MORE SONG! LOL.

I'm tired... going to bed.

It was great to meet all of you in person. It really felt like we were all part of this little family or something. I hope to get to know you all much better now!

I hope to get inspired later on to write a story on my experience of meeting Amy! :D

OKAY! I'm the first one home I guess! YOU Guys I had the best time of my life singing with y'all before the show and hanging out!! (You know who you are)

The show was so awesome. I'll let someone else give the details. WE MET Amy and Shaun!!! (It took like 2 hours in the cold out back after the show but we did it!)I also got to talk to Rocky (who is awesome and funny!) and Will and John (Who is also quite cool and really takes time with everyone.) before the show and Rocky and John after the show. I'm so stoked I can barely type. Shaun is the coolest everyone! He made my night! He even got Amy to take pictures with us even when the security guys told us we couldn't take them! I'm a Seether fan too and he really hung out with me for a few minutes and we talked about music.. Sorry I know this isn't the Seether Board..

UHM Amy was a little drunk..she told us..and She was really beautiful up close. There are some many details that I want to share but it's late..maybe tomorrow!

JUST The best night of my life really!!!! That's all!

Okay more tomorrow..

Where'd you see Amy? And what time? We didn't see her after the show.

Where'd you see Amy? And what time? We didn't see her after the show.

We waited outside till 1:15 AM..

The security told us Amy was gone but Beth was there and I talked to her for a few minutes and asked if Amy was still around and she said yes she was but she might not come out for a couple of hours. I gave her something to give to Amy and about 5 minutes later..People started looking out the window of the dressing rooms. It was Shaun and Amy and Beth and Terry. Shaun mooned us actually..from the window..and then about another 10 minutes went by and they all came out together and the security told us to line up and Amy would sign ONE thing for us and NO pictures. (everyone that wanted one got one anyhow..)

I actually hung out with Shaun the most. The whole time Amy was signing and poseing. We talked about music and he was the coolest to me. He encouraged me about my music and we talked about his new record...I'm kinda rattled right now from it all..He took pictures with us..then asked if we wanted a picture with Amy too..( And we all were gonna say no right?!) And when she came back over to him they took pictures with us and they were really terrific to us.

So ..hope that answers your queston..I'm sorry if I'm babbleing like a lunitic. This was my perfect day really.. :D

PS: JAKE Tell us about your Amy meeting!! I 'm dieing to know!

What a concert!! The venue was awesome, very cozy and had great sound!! I would compare it to the HOB in Vegas. Me and my friend showed up during Default, which we thought KICKED ASS! they had really good sound, the lead singer had a sexy voice AND he was hot...and the guitar player was awesome. Gonna go pick up their cd.

Once Ev came on, I was so glad I ended up coming. At first I wasn't sure I wanted to go because I really wasn't too fired up. Not like in times past. But Nicole, my friend, said, "let's go!" and we did. We got onto the floor and tried to get real close but security said we had to have a special wristband. Whatever. So we weren't too far back from Ev and it was just perfect. I would have preferred being up against the stage, but being further away wasn't too bad. I would have to say that the best part of the show was Rocky all the way. I was really bummed when Ben left the band and all, but Rocky and his double bass carried the show by far. I couldn't really even hear John or Terry except on their solos, and Amy was excellent as usual. But my favorite song all night was Farther Away with Rocky's tribal drum intro and lenghty outro. It was definitely a fist pounding time.

Was it just me or did the crowd seem dead? Barely anybody had their hands up or even moving their heads. Nobody really reacted to their music until My Immortal and then BMTL. I was really disappointed because in concerts past EVERYONE is rockin out. These people in front of me looked like they were confused that Ev was heavier than they thought. The bass drums really took me for a ride and I was rockin out hands and head banging the whole time. Lots of fun. As much as I miss Ben and his show antics, the sound was pretty much the same.

All in all a good show. Glad to hear you guys finally got to meet the band after waiting so long!!

I went down to the stage before the show with my son and the usher said come back after the show starts. BINGO! I thanked the guy and gave him $20. up front all night next to the stage. I agree the crowd was real mellow last night. default tore it up they were great! evanescence keeps getting better. Bring me to life's intro was pretty cool with the lights and all.
the show rocked!

02-12-2004, 12:44 PM
Oh man, seeing Ev last night was amazing enough, but being able to meet everyone from the Evboard just added to it. Thanks for being so *(^%!#& amazing, guys!

I'd totally write about my experience, but it'd turn into some heinous journal entry, but I will say this : DARN IT, I SHOULD'VE WAITED FOR AMY. LoL. It's all good though, because I really had to leave because my friends all had early things to do. I'm glad you guys got to meet her though, though it would've been nice to get her to sign my outfit. [ I met Amy briefly at the Universal show last August, so I still have that to hold onto. ]

I think all three bands rocked, and it was cool hanging with the guys from Atomship and Default. They're so down to earth and fun, really. Ev was astronomical and I can't wait to be able to see them again [ I swear, I was so half tempted to drive to Vegas today and shoot for the moon. Lol. ]

I'm currently rendering the ... 200 pictures I took last night. Someone tell me where to put some for now before I upload a whole bunch to my upcoming Ev webpage.

Keep in touch, Evboarders!

I CANT EVEN BELIEVE AMY! She knew that there were like a few fans waiting outside for her autograph but she wouldnt come out! there werel ike 6 of us waiting until 1:30 am! she isnt as nice as I thought! I cant believe she did that, this one little boy started crying because she wouldnt come out! She said to the security "no i think i'd rather take a nap" it would have taken her AT THE MOST 15 min. to write her name on a few pieces of paper! I cant believe it! I hope to do everything in my power to let her know how much she let us down, I thought she was nicer then this.

02-12-2004, 01:11 PM
this sucks soooo much! I'm like almost crying! i left at like 1:15 I'm sooooo sad :( I wanted to meet them so much, I saw Will and we called him but he wouldnt come.

we would have stayed, but the lady was on a cellphone and said that Amy had decided to take a nap.

I enjoyed the concert, but I am soooo sad that I waited all that time, and she came out right when I left. and supposedly they wont be going on tour again for a long time, maybe ill scrounge up my money and go to the one in san jose, even though we'd have terrible seats lol

Hey guys! I'm going to go a little overboard and tell you guys about my whole day! It was filled with Ev!
We got there at 12:30 and found out we had missed the acoustic performance by Star 98.7 so we were kinda bummed but we were still happy as we were like the 3rd group there sitting on the street.
I met up with a bunch of Evboard members! Waiting for 6 1/2 hours with those guys - felt like maybe an hour. We had a blast and sang acoustic ev songs for hours...Then babbyx ran over and told me John LeCompt was out back walking around so i ran and got my Fallen cover and my pen and we got autographs with John and Will - who were really nice to take time and sign and chat as they wanted to eat McDonalds!
A little bit later, Ashley (one of my friends we took) and I went to the Savon to get a camera, and we randomly walked around the back to see if anyone was chilling out there...and sure enough Rocky was out there! He is the nicest guy! He took pictures with us and sign autographs. I ran back to the line and got all the Evboard members, just then Will and John were walking back from Mcdonalds and I got pictures with John, as Will ran back inside.
So I was completely stoked!
We (evboard members) brought our acoustics out back and sang some songs hoping Amy or someone would hear it... and John came out as we were playing! Amy's dressing room window kept opening and people kept looking out of it so that made us kind of nervous! (or at least me!) but I had the best time. i picked up my tickets at willcall and went back to the line at about 6 and we all talked until it was time to go in. FRONT ROW!!!! Ziusud, I will post pics for you - your awesome!
Atomship came on...meh...Default came on...I like them, they are cool. Then Ev came on and I believe it was better then the Ampitheater concert - but then again, I had shitty seats at the Ampitheater...lol. They opened with Haunted, then led a full on set with some older songs that included Farther Away and Breathe No More. (Beautiful job Amy!)

After the concert, We went out back to wait for Amy to come out. There were about 50-75 people out there waiting fr her. As it got later, group by group left as the stage-hands said that Amy had already left a long time ago and to go home. There were about 15-20 people left and we were waiting outside, waiting for Amy still. Beth came out a few times, I got to kind of chat with her, she is seriously the sweetest person! I asked for her autograph as she is a great make up artist and she thought I was silly hehe. A few times she came out, loading things into busses...and we asked her if she could talk Amy into coming out and she said that she probably would not come out for a few hours because she is a little stubborn heh... but she would try to get her out for us. About 10 mins after, we all started singing Bring Me To Life and the dressing room window opened again and Shaun looked outside, as we were yelling things like Amy! Amy! We love you, your great! etc. and Amy, Shaun, Terry, and Beth were looking out the window and then left the window ... but before they closed the window, SHAUN MOONED US! a stage manager came out and said Amy would come out if we all lined up with one thing to sign and no pictures were allowed.

Amy, Shaun, Terry, Beth, and a few other people came out while Amy signed autographs...We got our picture taken with her (haha stage manager!) and I got the chance to say to her, Congrats on the Grammys, and she was like "Thank you, it was so unexpected...FUCK 50 CENT!" and I said, Yeah that was messed up of him, and she went on to say "All the times that I clapped for him, then he comes up and is all assholie!" Haha Amy! I got Terry to sign my Fallen cover as well, he was pretty laid back and shy.
I went over and talked to Shaun for a while, He was the nicest guy, I got his autograph as well. Just then, my friend Ashley comes up and asked Shaun, "Is your song, Gasoline, about screwing a girl on her period!?!" You should have seen his face, he didn't say anything, and his eyes got all big and he kind of looked around with his beer in his hand, awkward silence lol it was funny. Amy then came back over to Shaun and we asked if we could get a picture with him and Amy with all of us, and she said something along the lines of "I dont know, you would have to ask him, he is kind of weird about those things, hes african!" lol, so we got our pictures and as soon as I get them developed I will figure out how to post... it cant be THAT hard... I shook Amy's hand and told her she had a beautiful voice and that meeting her and the band was the coolest thing ever.

So, I got to meet a bunch of really awesome people from the board as well as my favorite band! Last night was seriously the coolest ever and I am realy glad I met all that I did, YOU GUYS ROCK! - Oh and I thank Jordan (my ride) and Adam (my friend who convinced Jordan to stay after the stage hands were telling us Amy left) for putting up with us and waiting for Amy after the show - as we had to drive like 100 miles back home that night to go to school today! Thats my review and I hope all of you that go to future Ev concerts have as much fun as I did, if not more! (if thats possible!)
Later!

They played a cover of Zero...I didn't realize how short that song is! It went by in a flash! Other than that, it's the same setlist they had since late last year. I loved hearing Whisper again, especially with all the lighting effects, and Rocky's bass drums. I did miss Ben's gnarly high solo at the end of Whisper. And Terry did a new solo in Haunted. It had quite a Cold flair.

She was really upset with the sound guys. In the beginning, and a little bit throughout the concert, she kept motioning to them to turn the sound up or down. She even gave them the finger one time. They didn't turn her mic up high enough, and her voice wasn't as clear as it should have been. She sounded great, but maybe a little TOO great...like, they added too many hidden effects or something...

I thought she was just tired of singing the same songs after a year, she said so herself she cant wait till she is back in the studio writing because she is going to "explode" but I thought none-the-less, whether or not she wanted to be there, she did an awesome job as usual.

i definitely agree about the volume of her voice, a bunch of us noticed it, the music should augment her voice, not the other way around...if anything it should be almost too loud...btw was there anyone there with an angels cap on?...there was a dude right near me with one on, thouhgt maybe he mighta been an evboarder...

I dunno if anyone will remember me, but I talked to a few of you waiting in line...(CantWashItAllAway...I definitly know we talked lol...but I'm not sure of who else...I was there with my friend up in the front with you guys :D ) anyways...the concert was amaaaaazing!! Amy wasn't "high" :rolleyes: come on ...thats retarded...they did 3 songs for a star 98.7 radio interview at 12:30 earlier that day...and her voice just sounded a lil tired, they've been touring for like'a year, you can't expect her voice to sound 100% perfect every night, but it sounded pretty damn close to me. Like others have said, it seemed like something was wrong with the sound...cuz she kept tryin to tell ppl backstage something was up, from what it looked like. The band rocked, and I'll never forget that night!! I just wish my friend and i would'a waited a bit longer outside...I didnt think amy was gonna come out :( My parents were like circling around the block a thousand times waiting for us, so i felt bad makin them wait any more. But all in all an AWESOME night....and everyone I got to talk to was really nice!! :) take care!!

Actually, they cut a LOT of the prerecorded stuff out! When I first saw them live with a bunch of the prerecorded stuff, it sounded great, but I thought it was kinda ... you know, fake sounding? I dunno, but I noticed last night that most of it (other than the really important back-up vocal lines) were cut out. I didn't really like it that way. It sounded kinda dull, like something was missing. Amy should hire my friend Megan as back-up harmonizer! :D

are you kidding....

when you went back to school after 2 months (summer) or whatever, didn't you feel like you had just left like last week?

On your first show back after 2 months off if you cant sing, you need a new job cause you arent gonna last....im just going off of someone saying amys voice was weak and fatigued....it might not have been that bad...i wasnt there...

It would be great if they had another girl in the band to take care of that. The strings are so much a part of their music...maybe when they get bigger they can get a great keyboard player to join.

I really think they need those. Not that they aren't good live without them; it just would add so much to the show. Maybe it's something to think about?

it was the sound. she was doing the best she could to sing up and out over the music of the band, but i mean without the right tech stuff, there is only so much you can do when you're battling against full blown amps and drums and stuff...

It was only a one hour set, on the first day of the tour. The tech's aren't going to be perfect on their first day. Trust me, her volume wasn't as loud as it should have been. I even listened to the cd right after and listened to hear how loud her voice was compared to the instruments, and her voice is SO much louder on the cd. Also, when I saw them before, she was much louder.

Yeah, during Haunted her voice was totally messed up by the sound guys...it was wayyyy too loud and was totally reverbing. It got better during the show. It sucks how after a whole year, the sound guys are still retarded.
And as of the prerecorded stuff, I don't see it being any less. Although I have to say the first times I saw them early last year they had the bass tracked. How ghetto is that?!? But now they have wonderful Mr. Will Boyd to play it live and it is WAY better. I thought it was hilarious how they didn't really sync up the live intro to My Last Breath with the tracked drum intro. You could totally tell they were off. That's ok though, it still sounded great. I LOVED Rocky's drumming....my friend and I were totally hooked on it. Sounded great and he is too cute!!!
I also thought it was cool when Amy was on the upper level of the set when she played the piano ballads. That was way cool. Not to mention the fact they also had a REAL piano! And not just some synthesizer. Too bad they didn't use the upper level of the set more often. I remember the LA Show last summer, they totally were strolling on it and making good use of it.

Yeah....double post! Fallen doesn't do the band any justice. I wish they would re-record with the musicians they have now. Rocky blows Josh Freese's playing clear out of the water, and Will is a way better bassist than the guy who did the tracking on Fallen. I can't wait to hear their new stuff...and the heavier aspect of the band

Why re-record Fallen when they can work on something new! Amy's voice was fine - it was the techs fault, she kept making them turn it up and then turn it down, then on whisper it cut out almost completely... Amy hit every note perfectly...and they cut a lot of the pre-recorded stuff out like on Going Under and Bring Me To Life... she let the audiance sing the high going under part in between "and you still wont hear me" and "Dont want your hand this time..." it was cool.

Why re-record Fallen? Cuz there are some kick-ass songs on there that are so awesome live. I just wish that Fallen was heavier...but yeah, I can't wait til the new album.
As for the pre-recorded stuff that was cut out, they cut it out a long time ago. I haven't heard "come find me" during My Last Breath since early last summer!

There are some kick ass songs on there... but there can and probably will be a lot better songs on the new album! why dwell on making something that is already finished, better...when you can make something completely different and new! that way they will take all that they didn't like on fallen and not make the same mistakes...well i wouldn't say mistakes... but you know...things they dont like.

awwwwwww Di! you'll meet her I was bummed she didn't get to see your outfit ... i'm sure she would have been really shocked on how much it looked like the real thing - i know i was!

Oh yeah that was kickass, I had soooo much fun with everyone, alll you guys were so cool yeah I know im posting about 3 days later but you know, anyway yeah I was there since 7:23 in the morning yeah and people were looking at me pretty weird but I was like whatever, so like around 11:30 star 98.7 gets there and this guy tells me and my cousin that he would get us in to the acoustic show so I was like hells yeah it was so awesome (oh and ziusud now hates me for seeing the acoustic show) they played Going Under first that was so awesome since John played this kickass new intro for Going Under, I was blown away, then even more blown away when they played Imaginary, then they played My Immortal, they ended it there and then took pictures with everyone for star, then I got John to take one with me hes so cool.
When I got outside Sammi (cantwashitallaway) and her friends got there, and they were pissed off that they missed the acoustic show, I started jamming out with Sammi's friend Robert later Miranda (Babbyx) shows up and looked confused cause I told her I was gonna have my guitar with me and there was like 3 of us with guitars. I couldnt help but laugh, Miranda your so cool, while later Sudra (ziusud) hes an awesome guy, shows up and is like where are all the evboarders. We all were playing ev songs, I was playing the guitar and so was Robert. Sudra, Miranda, and Sammi were singing they all sounded awesome, then when Di (Crofty) showed up she blew us away with her amazing voice not to mention her outfit, she even impressed John when we were playing in the back, we played the whole fallen album, and some old stuff.
The show was great, Atomship rocked, Default was good, then when ev came on it was awesome, they started off with Haunted then Going Under, then ummm dammit I forgot Ill check the set list later, anyway it was a great show except for the stupid sound people assholes, John threw his pic straight at me but Miranda stole it from me, I still say that pic should have been mine, its ok though. I wanted to hear them play Even in Death but I guess they replaced it with Breathe No More.
All in all it was the best concert ive been to yet, not just seeing the show but meeting all you great people, all of you are so awesome hopefully the next show we will all meet up again.

I can't help it, I'm a flirt by nature, and without intending to flirt, I do. I'm just a nice person...I mean, was it flirting that made my crack head self offer to get John McDonalds?

not to bring a thread back from the dead for no reason, but I found this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smYzJPjwJ4U) on youtube while browsing last night. I totally remember this happening, actually, I'm in it in the very beginning. The girl to the right in jeans and a blue tshirt who looks over her shoulder at the camera with a wtf? look on her face...yeah that's me. And towards the end where people start talking in to the mic...im pretty sure one of the guys is sammies friend.
this made me laugh, and brought back memories. who else members???
