I SURVIVED THE MCR CONCERT DESPITE A TWISTED ANKLE.
and i am proud to say that. :)
and ankle guard really helps, man. without it i totally cannot walk properly without limping, and yet with it i managed to go to the concert and come back without aggravating the injury.
so anyway. PICTURES! it took a damn long time to upload and arrange ok. oh and Mikey did show up! YEAH BABY.
concert tix + the Q jumpas that Vernon A kindly got for us! he got us FOUR ok.
we arrived there at around 6.20 cos the gates were supposed to open at 7 and the concert was supposed to start at 8. but arriving at 6+ was already considered late! look at the amount of ppl queueing in front of us.
dont be fooled ok, the queue goes round the corner too.
these are the ppl without the Q jumpas. poor souls. that queue was even longer.
on our way to the Q jumpa queue i overheard one group of girls like around 14 or 15 going, "oh yeah, Mikey! omg he's so cute!!"
...and this is my sian diao face:
Maxine Ang laughs at me.
what to do when you're bored in a queue? CAM-WHORE of course.
i think out of all the ppl there, 80% of them were Malays, most of them being mats [you know, malay ah bengs. not the cloth you put on the floor!!]. and 99% of the population were wearing BLACK. which was kinda understandable, seeing as how the concert was called The BLACK Parade.
so the gates finally opened at 7.20, and the ppl in the Q jumpa queue got to go in first. hello, Q jumpas! jump the queue, you know?
the crowd:
hahaha, this picture is damn funny. this guy is damn tall. and he kana shot cos he was wearing a cap. the ppl behind were like shouting at him, "can the guy wearing the cap pls take it off? there is only one person wearing a cap. you are obstructing our view."
and when he ignored them, they were like, "CHEEBYE. TAKE YOUR CAP OFF!! hello, are you deaf?? do you speak english???" anyway he finally took his cap off lah. i was expecting a fight, but there was none.
MCR fans are damn crazy. excluding me of course!!
MCR was late. not for 10 mins. not for half an hour. they were late for ONE FREAKING HOUR. Maxine Ang and i camwhored for a while.
i was talking and she snapped the photo.
the crowd was getting restless cos MCR still hadnt come out after so long. first they chanted, "MCR! MCR!" and then they self-entertained themselves. someone blew up condoms and started throwing them in the air, and the condoms bounced all over the mosh pit.
then at like 8.45 ppl really were getting impatient, and that was damn scary. ppl frm the back pushed to the front, ppl from the front pushed back, ppl frm the left pushed right, ppl frm the right pushed left. it was like being in a giant stimulator, except there were no seatbelts and it was damn dangerous.
when MCR finally came out at 9 and started playing, the crowds got even worse. the pushing became even worse and many ppl fell down. ppl werent even concentrating on the music but were trying not to fall. the front row ppl had it worse. they were squashed against the railings and i think some fainted/fell and the security guards [or whatever they're called] had to lift them out of the mosh pit. some angmoh girl fell down next to me and i had to grab her forearm and pull her up. see, i'm a good Samaritan ok. Maxine Ang nd i were clinging onto each other for dear life and she almost had an asthma attack. under such circumstances i wasnt even thinking of my ankle, i was only concentrating on not falling. and i was already sweating like a pig, my whole shirt was WET. angmohs + mats = HAVOC.
this continued for 2 songs and after the 2nd song Gerard had the lights turned on and scolded the whole crowd. he is damn vulgar. he went, "everybody listen up! i am fucking serious. if you see anyone fucking fall, you fucking help them up, you hear me??"
and throughout the concert he kept saying, "you motherfuckers," and "you ppl are fucking beautiful," and "we are fucking you so hard, you wont be able to walk straight after this!"
hopefully Mikey is not like his brother. okok enough talking, time for photos! FYI, the one with the white bass guitar is Mikey!! :DDDD i told you his long hair sucks.
Gerard looks like a ghost.
and now, solo Mikey photos! my favourite. :D
the last photo is the best, it's damn clear.
this group of guys were fucking irritating. they selfishly pushed ppl away so they could form a circle and dance in it. Maxine Ang almost got into a fight with one of the mats in the group, but sadly his face is not in this photo so i cant show you what a fucking bastard he is. he was dancing away like some bloody drug addict and kept dancing into Maxine Ang and this other girl, and they had to keep pushing him away. then i pushed him with my knuckles [cos it'd hurt more] and then he turned around and snapped at Maxine Ang, "what the fuck is your problem?!" and Maxine Ang shouted back, "what the fuck is YOUR problem!?! can you stop dancing like that!?!" and they almost fought if not for his friends who came and brought him away.
my left foot got it worse cos i was using it to anchor myself most of the time and ppl kept stepping on it. i had to protect my right ankle what. it was a miracle that my left ankle didnt sprain too.
my lovely MCR wrist tags! the white one is the Q jumpa, the green one is to ensure that we had tickets.
oh yeah, random pic: TEAM BAG.
damn big right. dont know what to put sia, not like i bring many things to sch.
and i am proud to say that. :)

if not for all the scary pushing and if MCR wasnt so freaking late the concert wouldve been quite enjoyable. at least they played Cancer. :)
oh and they sang Famous Last Words last and when everybody was jumping away i was hopping on my left foot, hahaha. hopping + singing at the top of your lungs = good way to improve stamina. heh.
dont think i came away unscathed ok. part of the nail on my little toe came out:
my left foot got it worse cos i was using it to anchor myself most of the time and ppl kept stepping on it. i had to protect my right ankle what. it was a miracle that my left ankle didnt sprain too.my lovely MCR wrist tags! the white one is the Q jumpa, the green one is to ensure that we had tickets.oh yeah, random pic: TEAM BAG.
damn big right. dont know what to put sia, not like i bring many things to sch. ok i PROMISE to start studying next week.
