Obama, Biden, Arcade Fire, and JayZ Oh My

A friend of mine was in town for, what I've deemed, Obama Week. Angela took me to the Obama Staff Party! There are few words to describe how incredible this event was. It was of course the final event of the Inauguration, and Arcade Fire opened up. The lead singer stated that one of the best moments of his life was watching Bush fly away after the Inauguration. They were amazing; Angela and I were less than two yards from the stage. We then wondered to the open bar and meandered around talking to the "Obama nation". After a little mingling Biden came out and spoke about the wonders of this campaign. After Biden Pluffy came out and spoke; he is afterall a campaign god. Then Obama and Michelle came out and spoke. It was inspiring and everything that the powers that be say about listening to Obama. He spoke about the change not being over, that this was just the beginning. Then JayZ came on and performed. It was amazing! I am still giddy.
