RECAP BABY

[kitaloon]

For the record, I'm starting this at 4:13 p.m. EST. When will I finish it? God only knows.

Got downtown at about 5:20-ish. It was warm enough to wear shorts, gorgeous weather. I honestly wish I'd had a camera to film the line, because it was amazing. The people in front were the REALLY dedicated ones, obviously, all black-bar makeup and shit written

Comments

Hah, I'm surprised you were so close! And the people in front, as you have probably read? Eight AM Friday. Insaaane. And I didn't even remember about the boa comment! Man, it's seriously awesome to see someone else's recap.

Also, I only now remember the Waycesty shenanigans. Woe, life. At least I was there to see it.

[kitaloon]

I was surprised as well, to be honest. I think it's because I started off to the side, I was able to work my way forward in a sort of inconspicuous zigzag.

Also, I was behind two guys with tall fluffy hair, so every time Gerard was like "Jump!" I would stealthily try to jump between them and forward. And when I succeeded, lo and behold, fifth row! \o/

Ah, the Waycest. Subtle, yet satisfying. *purrs*

[escherzo]

I was almost to second row but there was this guy--really tall, white shirt, looked like he walked out of a frat house. He was in the fourth and while we were waiting for Drive By was discussing with his friend that they were getting to the front. So-- I was closer, but he and his friend were assholes that were shoving? idk. But yeah. I started out at fifth but the inital surge right before Drive By I ended up at third.

There wasn't any room between any of us, seriously, it was insane. I would have squeezed if I could.

And yessss. Also the quill thing brought me endless lols.

[kitaloon]

Eh, I hate jerks like that. The only thing you can do is let them by, or they'll beat the shit out of you trying to get past. Still, third row, that must have been an amazing view.

Yeah, once I got to fourth row, it was too tight-packed for any more movement. I wasn't squished, just bounded on every side by people.

The quill! I thought it was, like, a painting of a tree or something at first. GIANT FLUFFY EMO QUILL. I want him to give it to Mikey, and Mikey tries to use it and it gets attacked by his cat, and his wife laughs herself to death and then takes pictures. <3

UGH UGH SO EXCITED HOW AM I GOING TO MAKE THROUGH TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

I want them to play Sleep at either/both of my shows so bad. Like, any concert recap that says they didn't play it, I go "noooooo" and make D: faces at my screen. I mean, I also want Vampires and other Bullets stuff or B-sides, but Sleep is one of my all-time favorites and I don't want having missed out on all the Black Parade touring to mean I miss out on hearing it live.

[kitaloon]

I hope they play it for your show! It's an amazing opener, god, no-one should miss out on that. You get to experience MIKEY WAY: SEX GOD, too, which is something to behold. \o/

[0nlymemories]

\o/ Foreverrr. Ugh, six days. Six daaaaays. ;_;

[kitaloon]

You can do it! Just think of MIKEY FUCKIN WAY, seriously, it will get you through the long days and cold nights.

[0nlymemories]

As will going to my second to last week of classes and seeing the Used on Friday. Ahahahaha. /o\

(Although in happier news, I got my midterm in my 1/2 semester class back! 114/116! SUCCESS!)

[kitaloon]

That sounds like a week of sheer awesome, to be honest. Just a little less than a month and a half left for me; I'm waiting for time to start flying instead of dragging.

Oh, hell yes! *hugs* That is amazing, I am seriously impressed. Congratulations!

Whoa, the pretty in reference to the venue and the massive amounts of boyhip all over the place

[kitaloon]

Oooh, the pretty. The Fillmore is such an amazing place; if Detroit weren't such a wreck, it would be the best venue ever. It's still not too bad; when there's a big concert the area is full of hipsters and cops, so the worst you'll run across is a homeless person or two.

Boyhip <3. Guys with hips are like my Achilles heel, although in reality I have more Achilles heels than a centipede has legs, ranging from guys with long hair to girls with curves to raspberries and chocolate.

[forcedmovement]

This is SO AWESOME. I have honestly never heard of a polite MyChem pit, so this is a first for me. GOD I NEED TO SEE THESE BOYS SO BAAAAAAD.

[kitaloon]

Supposedly it was pretty bad in some other places? idk, I was riding the adrenaline rush; I wanted to jump around a lot anyways, and I think it gets weirdly less shove-y in the first five rows or so.

MIKEY WAAAAY. I had a very serious discussion with a friend about how he and his hotass wife need to release a sex tape so I can watch it until I die from failure to eat or sleep. Nnngh.
