Went to NYC this past weekend to visit Tim and go to the *omigosh* Rise Against and My Chemical Romance show out on Long Island. And since I've seen Rise Against twice before, and MCR 3 times before, you can infer that I loves them both.
SO!
Well, first we had to GET there. So we took the LIRR, and had to transfer in Jamaica Queens which is the sort of place that people get shot on a daily basis. But we got there. Which is good.
We had sucky ass seats, and we all know how I feel about seats at a concert. So we seat-hoped, (because we couldnt bum-rush the floor) and got slightly better. Only slightly.
ANYWAY!
Rise Against can have my babies. They are the nicest bunch of dudes ever. Incase you forgot, Tim and I got to see them from onstage this year at Warped.
Then of course we have the "Main Attraction" My Chemical Romance. First off. NOT their best performance ever in my opinion. But thats because I'm pissed that they played their new cd all the way through, song by song. That killed me.
What a lovely enterance, Gerard entered on a gurney.
They had balloons!
Confetti spewed out during Welcome to the Black Parade
They keyboardist used a macbook. It made Tim giggle like a little girl.
After they played the cd all the way through they left the stage. A mom next to me leans over and goes "are they done?" and its like "I damned well hope not!". And they werent.
So they came back out in new clothes, reminiscent of 2 years ago, and played songs off of Three Cheers. Which was fun IN A BOX. But no songs off of their 1st cd. And that makes me angry.
Frankie flipped over ONCE! WHAT THE HELL?!?! That upset me.
And the drumset was cool. As was the new background. woot, revenge.
So that was all fun. But then we had to find a cab, and then get to the train stop. And sit there for an hour. In a shady ass spot of Long Island. That was sweet.
It was definatly fun in a box though. Yays.
Oh. and Tim and I went to the sex museum. They gave out free condoms.

love to everyone.
