the undressing of Brandon Boyd

August 21, 2011. We celebrated our 14th (yep, 14th!) anniversary as gf/bf by watching Incubus live. It was our 4th time watching them live and the timing couldn't be any better. Twice we watch them in Manila, 1st was in 2004 at CCP grounds for the A Crow Left of a Murder World tour. The 2nd in 2008 at Araneta Coliseum for the Light Grenades tour. On both occasions, we were so far from the stage, it's like watching miniature Incubus perform.

The concert before this, we watched them here in July 2009 at Charter One Pavilion in downtown Chicago. We were there front and center and it was one of the most awesome concert experience I ever had. Which is why it had been an unspoken agreement between us that if they will be having a concert, we need to be there. Always.Watching the band play is an awesome experience, specially because I knew most of their songs by heart. Yeah, I'm such a groupie. I know.

When we watched them last August, I really thought we wouldn't get a good place at the front. But fate is really good to us that day, we're able to squeeze ourselves in a decent place, though not front but great enough to get decent pictures of them. And of course, sing and dance along with the band.

This post is entitled "the undressing of Brandon Boyd" because on all 4 concerts that we've watched, he started up covered up with jacket and all then by the end of the set, he's already half-naked. Not that I'm complaining, Brandon is always an eye candy. Covered or not. If there is one person that I can get a "pass" for, it would be him. Sorry, TMI here.

So anyway, if you're interested to know the set list from the concert, you can find it here. I posted a couple of pictures below that we took. Or Topher took.
