the presents just a pleasant interruption to the past

something corporate has been flying under the music radar during the past five years when they decided to take a break after being burnt out from their endless tour dates. during this break andrew mcmahon was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. being the rock star that andrew is he not only bounced back from his illness but he also completed his first solo album under the name of jack's mannequin. i do love jack's mannequin but i will admit that i have been hoping that eventually he'd make a glorious announcement of a reunion party. when i heard the news i knew i had to get tickets and i have been anxiously awaiting this night. reunited and it feels so good!! it was a nostalgic evening that left me reminiscing on the good old days from 8-10 years ago when something corporate was in their punk piano prime. lucky for me they decided to have this reunion tour and i'm not able to check them off my list of must sees, that is unless they come around again cause in that case i'll be there too. the band had great chemistry with one another even after being apart for so long. my only wish was that they would have played a little longer but really i have no complaints since they played ever song i wanted to hear. their set was flawless and they didn't even have an opening band which for tonight was perfect.
thank you for making my dream of attending a something corporate show my reality. also, i would like to give a shout out to my little brother who introduced me to soco many years ago and for that i am so grateful!

have i mentioned how much i love that andrew jumps and stomps around on the piano. i also love that he's a fighter and a lover and that he's married to such a normal adorable girl.
