my old girlfriend, her mom had a thing with modest mouse's tour manager. they where coming to Detroit and she managed to get backstage passes. The show was fuckin awesome, at the time (highschool) I had some faith in the ol' double M and freaked out when they opened with whale song. This guy next to me was like trying to light up a joint in the crowd and there was this dickhead photographer guy that ratted him out and some other kids for taking pictures,
when it was over we met up with stephen yates and he took us downstairs to meet the band. everyone was scattered and we went into this room like the size of a broom closet and found Tom Peloso and Plummer tryin to make a bowl out of an apple. Someone gave us a corn cob pipe and we smoked outta that. I asked where issac was and he started explaining the meaning behind, "its nice on ice" Issac apparently purchased this ice box bed freezer thing from michael jackson, who couldnt afford it at the time. now he lays in it after shows on tour. I had no idea if this was true or not, but it was probably the most wild stoner tale told by anyone ive heard. so we go outside to me issac and some of the guys are like pushing each other around in shopping carts and doing stupid shit.
stephen introduces us to issac and we start talking. we where talking about this one kid during the show that kept trying to crowed serf, and issac was like, "I used to mosh, then I slam danced and then eventually I just stopped fuckin around and listened to the music" . We took a picture together and went back to the car. It was so cool to shake his hand and actually see him face to face.
