  • Lookoutkid was there for Arcade Fire at Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival 2011, San Francisco on Fri, 12 Aug 2011

    Snuck in just to see them, for the first time. I was right outside the gates and singing along ALL the words to every song and a girl who was leaving saw me then walked up to me and said "you look like you belong in there" and with a smile handed me her ticket stub. My bf had already managed to get inside so now I had to figure out how to, cos its not like he could trade places with me and I was there only for Arcade Fire. They had stopped allowing ins and outs that year so it was hard af to get in with a already used ticket. I picked a dude at the check in and when it beeped red he looked at me and without thinking I reached in my pocket and just happened to have my asthma inhaler and pulled it out and pointed to the other person a bit aways which was a woman and said she said I could go get this from my car and smiled. He didnt ask her and just smiled and said WELCOME BACK! I ran inside giddy af my shy self had pulled it off and will always remember running up the hill to the top of the bowl and how amazing it was. I put going to see them on my bucket list ever since Funeral, cos I couldn't afford to see them open for thr Pixies at Berkeley Greek Theatre and couldn't get to big sur. It was amazing to say the least. I think I got to see at least half the show or a good portion. Come to find out my a-hole d-bag co-worker got backstage and was bragging about kicking with them. FML 😒🤬
