SomeGuy1707 Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 3 Days!!! I'm super stoked to see the show. I last saw them in Dallas at Warped Tour and Hayley was sick. She apologized for being sick and promised next time she'll give us what a Paramore show is really like. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaleyLovesIndie Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 I'm going with a friend. It'll be my first show at the Palladium. Does anyone know how big their parking lot is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeGuy1707 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 No idea. It's my first as well. I've been everywhere else in Dallas but there so it's cool to go to a new place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaleyLovesIndie Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Yeah, same with me. I'm kind of anxious to see the inside of this place, it looks pretty big in size... kind of like the HOB and Granada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeGuy1707 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Yeah my sister said it's pretty big inside. I'm excited. I'm leaving in about 45 minutes. Ahhh it's going to be a big party! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaleyLovesIndie Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 One of the best live shows in my history of going to shows... Sure I've only been show-going for two years, but I've wracked up quite a copious amount of 'em. And this show... slayed me so hard! I was so inhibited-- I was going nuts! Head-banging, dancing, and singing the entire time. Not so much as the suave indie kid I thought I was. Lol. And I think it's freaking awesome that they shared their biggest show in the history of their own shows with us Dallasians/Texans. That's really cool.

Emergency_999 Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 hey what was the setlist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeGuy1707 Posted November 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Same as the other shows. DUUUUDE!!!!!!!!! Amazing show!!! So much energy from both the stage and crowd! "This is our biggest show on this tour ever!" It was awesome. I hung out with them after the show. My sister and Josh: Josh and the sexypants. I'm in the stripes. I rarely EVER look this awful... Lol. My friend Darah. She gave Hayley her phone number. Lol. AMAZING night. Check my MySpace if you want to see more pics from the show. It's not private. You'll see the Paramore folder. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeGuy1707 Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! By MIKE DANIEL / The Dallas Morning News mdaniel@dallasnews.com Emo doesn't know it yet, but it now has access to a diva. Hayley Williams of Paramore is a presence that can captivate millions in her own if she chooses. She has a voice that can fell a small patch of forest, and it stays on key and on high as she pogos, sprints and headbangs. Ms. Williams has the larger-than-her-stature poise and charisma of Joan Jett, the easygoing Southern charm of Dolly Parton, the principled mystique of Debbie Gibson and the giddy approachability of Cyndi Lauper. The 18-year-old even has a gimmick: She colors her hair to match her clothes; for this show, it was a deep red. She's not reluctant to lead, as she demonstrated during her band's sold-out concert at the Palladium Ballroom on Saturday. But her values and her youth keep her from taking a lead. In emo-dom and for now, that's OK. Paramore's arguably the fastest-rising band in modern rock. The steady-building success of its sophomore CD, Riot, as well as the disc's lead single, "Misery Business," has the band at a crest that shouldn't fall for the next several months. Even big-market radio, which is typically reluctant to latch onto anything emo or punk – much less both – is convinced; Paramore was added Saturday to "The Edge" KDGE-FM (102.1)'s gigantic "How the Edge Stole Christmas" concert on Dec. 15. Judging from the extremely vocal and pubescent 3,300 that saw Paramore perform at the Palladium, the band is filling the pop-rock gap between Miley Cyrus and My Chemical Romance on multiple fronts. To its credit, Paramore isn't all about the singing comet that is Hayley. The other band members are more than competent musicians. And twin brothers Zac and Josh Farro supply a fair enough share of boyish hunkiness to offset Ms. Williams' sprightly alterna-cheerleader energy. But from the opening bars of "For a Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic" to the not-half-bad cover of Sunny Day Real Estate's "Faces in Disguise," Paramore performed as four pros instead of a token frontwoman backed by essentially hired hands. In that sense as well as others, Paramore is the anti-Evanescence. Both bands play music about jealousy, love, loss and confusion. But while Amy Lee's charge is dark and underhanded, Paramore's positively empowering and righteous. A fantastically arranged set only suffered one hiccup: Ms. Williams closed the pre-encore session by performing the two-year-old ballad "My Heart," a bad choice because of its languidness and age. Yes, she lost her breath during the bridge of "That's What You Get;" and still looks uncomfortable in front of a keyboard; yes, Josh Farro missed a couple of stomp-box cues and mailed in the solo on "Fences;" yes, Zac Farro rushed his bass-drum hits at times. Yes, Paramore is a band that's maturing, but Ms. Williams is ahead of her pack. She may be in it for her bandmates' sakes now, but they might never catch her or match her. Then what?
