SYSTEM OF A DOWN ROCKED!!!!!!
Though it goes without saying i had a great time there,they ruled.Heres how it went and what i though of it...
Opening Bands:
Bad Acid Trip-Ok,imagine a hardcore metal band like Dimmu Borgir,now add the fact that they fuck babies and youve got Bad Acid Trip.They actually got sympathy applause cause they sucked so bad.When they were over,everyone was happy and when they tok down there background,people applauded the fact they were gone and we would never have to hear them again.
The Mars Volta-I havent heard of them till i bought the tickets for the show,but when i did,i went to FYE to scan their cds and see if they were any good.Well,i didnt like them but they DID have an amazing guitar,and he was even better live.The best part of The Mars Volta was when some dude broke out a flute and started doing flute riffs,haha,it was pretty funny.Most of the lyrics were in Mexican,which was gay because i dont speak that launguage and neither could half the people there,hell,they could barely speak at all cause right when they came on stage everyone lit their joints,haha.YES,me and Kayla did get some secondhand highs.Anyways,all in all they were an alright band,i just wouldnt buy their cd.
Main Band:
System of a Down-It started with a GIANT picture of their new album coverering the stage so you couldnt see anyone...it got dark...a light lit up the left side of the stage and you could see the shadow of none other than Daron Malakian playing the intro of Mezmerize called "Soilders Side".Then as soon as the song was over..."B.Y.O.B." began and the GIANT cover dropped to the floor and the second it hit the ground the lights came on and Serj Tankian began singing.He looked awsome,with that jacket he wears and the nice clothes and the long curly hair,it was awesome.Everybody in the WHOLE stadium was standing.There was so many highlights,i cant just go from one to the other,i have to say it in their own quotes...
Intro to "Cigaro"-It began with Daron playing softly,it didnt even sound like Cigaro at all,then he sang,"my cock,is much bigger...than yours...my cock...can walk right through that dooorrrr....",Then it became hardcore like the cd version,but it was an awesome intro.
"Mr. Jack" background-In the background for the song Mr. Jack,when they started chanting "FUCK YOU PIG",it said those words in big letters in the background.
"Suggestions" guitar spin-During this song,Daron spun in a circle playing guitar for a long time,it was amazing that he was able to do it and go right back to standing up straight playing still without a pause.
"Bounce" Intro/the whole length of the song-Well,it began with Daron echoing himself saying something like,"please please please please,jump jump jump jump,bounce bounce bounce bounce".Once the song began,everyone{including me} began jumping and bouncing.Daron rules at encouraging people to do stuff,maybe its those eyes...big,red,evil eyes.
God,there were so many but ive gotta go now.Maybe ill tell some more later.OH,but before i go,Serj rules at dancing,haha,he danced through all the songs.System of a Down rules live.I REALLY wanna go see Nine Inch Nails now.Bybye
