How to party with a moderately famous band...

Last night my friends surprised me with tickets to see Cage the Elephant in North London. It was a blast and the night ended at around 2am in Shoreditch. Well anyway here's my step by step guide on how to party with a moderately famous band, and I'll tell you right now it doesn't involve drugs or sex, thank you very much!

Start the night by saying "I'm not going to drink that much and I'll try to be back before the tube closes so that I won't have to take bus 14 all the way back."

Arrive at the venue and buy cheap beer. Push your way past all the 16 year olds to the front row. Who doesn't want to be in the front row?

Buy another beer.

Try to make eye contact with a lesser important band member, i.e. don't go for the lead singer, focus on the bassist.

Fail miserably.

When the show is over go and buy another beer.

Have your friend from Kentucky tell the band that is also from Kentucky that she is from Kentucky.

Get back stage, I mean get in the back alley.

Meet someone from your home town and have an awkward conversation about Wegmans.

Start talking to a random friend of the band.

Get invited to the after party.

Talk about Kentucky Friend Chicken.

Learn that all the band members are either married or engaged. Switch your dancing from hot to joke and lose all hope of having them fall in love and living off their royalties.

Have fun instead.

Get yelled at because Kentucky boys don't love to joke dance, i.e. get bent over.

Have a deep conversation with the guitarist, "Are you having fun?" "Yes, I'm just an introvert."

Leave because your feet hurt, get invited back for their show in March.

Wish there was a 24/7 McDonalds.
