RECAP: The All-American Rejects @ Istora Senayan, August 17th 2009

Aug 19, 2009 01:20

Let me begin by telling you why this show was of special significance both to us Indonesians and (as I would later find out) to the Rejects themselves. The bombings of July 17th is still fresh in all our memories, and to stage a major musical event in the heart of Jakarta on this day of all days, our Independence Day, can only a be daunting thing.

( When the world comes down... )

concert recap, epic flail, fangirl moment, the all-american rentboys, tyson ritter is sparkle motion, music, life and everything about it

i'd read this whole thing gladly without a cut, but i think you intended it to be cut, and it didn't work. jysk.

what an inspiring and empowering show that must have been. <3

Your html is borked sweetie. Would you mind fixing your cuts? :)

Still though, sounds like it was an awesome experience.

I really do think it's awesome that AAR stayed in the hotel and shit. That's pretty amazing.

Only Tyson Ritter could slobber exotic fruit all over himself while dissing terrorists. It was pretty fucking awesome.

i have definitely been pimping this out, hahaha.

castratingcows has a toooooooooon of aar fic, as well as the communities rejectedfic and paarty. here is the dotcoms-refresh tag for them and there's some gems in there, and here is a nick wheeler/spencer smith fic that really shouldn't be that awesome.

can you tell i've been looking for aar fic for awhile? loooooool

valmontheights August 19 2009, 10:27:02 UTC

Thanks so much, bb!

I've read a few on castratingcows that I absolutely love, and I might join the other comms.

And pimp away! :D

I just want everyone to know how awesome these dudes are, and how much it meant for all the people here, for our continuing fight against terrorism, that they chose to come here and be a part of it.

valmontheights August 19 2009, 05:27:35 UTC

THEY WERE JUST WHAT JAKARTA NEEDED AFTER WHAT HAPPENED LAST MONTH.

Also, I've made this entry public so if you know anyone who's an AAR fan who'd love to read about how awesome the boys are, feel free to link.
