.saved by the 90s

I started off inviting a small handful of friends to this but it ended up just myself and my one friend in the end. We honestly had no clue what to expect, just that this show seemed interesting and fun. This was the first time I saw a show at the Trocadero. I totally get what my friend said about the stage being annoyingly high and the barrier. However, I thought it was a really awesome venue. Around 8:00 DJ Suga Ray kicked into all of these 90s songs while people danced. It was a mash-up of some of my most beloved songs from middle school and high school. Because of the freezing weather I didn't get all decked out in my floral dress and opted for jeans, a flannel, and a denim jacket with 90s pins. This is ironically my wardrobe 80% of the time so I guess I'm just stuck in the 90s forever.

The "Bayside Tigers" didn't come out until 9:15. They have a drummer, guitarist, bassist, and singer on the tambourine. The lot we parked in closed at 10 so we only got to stick around for some of the songs. As soon as the crew came out they shot glow stick bracelets into the crowd along with confetti. They kicked into hits such as "All Star" "Crazy" "Save Tonight" "I Got Friends in Low Places" "Feel Like a Woman" etc. Everyone sang along. The stage was amazing. They had the Guts trophy, all these posters of 90s bands, blown up pizza dangling from the ceiling, feather boa mic stands, and just over-the-top things that reminded us of our high school years and tweens. The crowd was pretty amazing. Everyone was decked out in 90s apparel. Some of the guys had Legend of the Hidden Temple shirts on as though they were contestants on the game. It was rad! Since the show sold out, they are coming back to the Troc again on July 9th. My crew will hopefully make this one because it's more fun with more people.
