Hey guys, as usual, I'm late to post my review.
It was the first time I went in London, and to see an awesome 30stm gig, that was unbelievable !! this weekend go away so quickly, now, I'm really bad to be go back home, I already miss my friends, all this fucking moments.
Anyway, let's go.



Thirty Seconds to Mars
London, Brixton Academy

Here we are again, and one more time I don't realize. I come in paris Thursday evening, I can say it now, I hate travel by train, Toulouse/Paris is really too far >_<
We get the Eurostar, friday early, and my friends and I join the Echelon from the french board, and we going with some of them at the hostel. We lost ourselves to find the hostel XD Big walk again to arrive to Brixton Academy.
At 11:00, we are on place, there are not a lot of people, we decide to start to get the queue, my friends and I, are ready for the first row, other french people are in circle.
Stay was not so terrible, we had a lot of fun.... ! and Uk Street Team did a great job of promo : badges, stickers, posters, cookies .... People around say that there'll be a lot of surprises ... I'm so eager to be in the venue !

At 7:00 we come in. We get second row, just in front of Tim. The venue was amazing, old with pillars, really beautiful decorated.

Now, the gig itself, was awesome, unbelievable. It was a really different show and they experimented a bit which was really cool, guys sound good and really had a great moment.
Tim totally rocking out, I didn't see Tomo at all but he was finally coming over for a few seconds on right side and I can get a picture !
Shannon was too far behind his drum, can't see him, and jared was well, his voice so good.
A lot of people around me passing out, It was hard to breath, no water and we were crushed. I hope they'll be okay.
It was my second gig, obviously not the same feeling that the first time, first time will stay special ever ^^ and as I said before, it was a very different show, peerless.

Set list was really awesome, guys played a new song, it was really interesting and good, just the fact to hear melody we didn't know we were just euphoric.
Then the best for me was to hear Buddha for Mary and Echelon, I was so happy they played old songs, which are ones of my favourite from the S/T, Echelon was so intense o.m.g. thank you guys, I love this two songs so fucking much, that was just great, unbelievable. Echelon was symbolic, a kind of thanks to the Echelon came from everywhere, maybe .... I guess ...

So yes, there were a lot of surprises ^^
The two white ballerinas dancing on Battle of one (that was kind of weird on this song, very theatrical maybe), then, The Kill with violin and cello although I didn't hear them at all, and Jared jumped in the crowd at this moment.
Tomo played violin with jared solo on A Modern Myth .... o__O that was so so amazing, god, that perfect myself, that was really beautiful. Tomo : keep practice violin, the best AMM live I have heard so far.
Other surprise was the opera singer who I guess was the special guest we are wainting for, they was playing The Fantasy and he just arrived to kick ourselves with Jared on the ooooh's !!! But in the end we were better !!! huhu !! really funny moment !
The gig go away so quickly, it's ending, they played thirteen songs.

After, there was no open signing, I'm not surpise, too many people, only those with yellow wristband can get signing, apparently the UK street team. Two of my friends can get Tim outside when he smoked his cigaret, and they took pictures with him, he was really adorable. We were waiting until 3:00 (under our french flag XD night was cold) to get the guys or something ... Jared went out taking pictures and signing stuff but we arrived when everybody was already around him, and there was too many people ....
Damned it !!!! I missed everybody !!
And by the way, didn't see Tomo or Shannon at all. Security guys told us to go away, that the band was gone, huh .... he didn't know who french people are !!! *laugh* nooo I'm kidding ! anyway, we were tired, freezing, and we finished to get a bus to come back to the hostel to take some rest. Thanks to night buses by the way !!
Saturday, we went to Camden, did a little shopping and walk into the place, very amazing place by the way !! and we've seen many Echelon in the streets !!
End of the afteroon, we go back to Waterloo to get the train and come back to France.

Here we are. That was an awesome experience, again, priceless. I love the band for that. I wanna thanks my friends, littlemimi and linki, we had a great time together again, love you girls and all the french people I met who are so adorable : mary, vivi, flo, xela, eden, jp, miss leto and others I forgot. Really unforgettable weekend. aaaaaaa it's the post concert depression now !!

We are waiting for you guys in Paris or another european gig!!! thanks for that moments.
