the complete show
by Anonymous on 2011-04-22Métropolis - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5The show started at 8pm and the first opening band started. It was a good band, but not enough to make a mess hahaha. After 20min they stopped and the staff started preparing everything for anti flag, the other band. I was almost in the front, but when they came on stage everyone started pushing, so i got to the front, just four people in front of me. That band was really cool, the drummer played inside the crowd (yes, they put the drums in the audience and he played the last song there). Even though i didnt know any of their songs, their performance was really cool. The singer approached to the crowd several times and everything. They played for another 20min.
Then, the fun began. The staff started preparing everything for MCR, they put the drums and the helmet, everyone started yelling. Then a hairy dude came on stage and took picures from us :D which now are on their facebook page. The pushing was harder and harder, anyone was getting hurt but i stepped on everyone around me hahaha. You couldn't bring your arms down because there was any space. Everyone was upon you. I almost fell several times, and the girl in front of me was getting mad because i was too close to her -.- we all had that problem! and MCR hadn't showed yet.
So, the lights turned on, and we all started yelling.
Look alive sunshine started, and the crowd was crazy! we were yelling so loud that i could't hear the music hahaha
And then...MCR entered to the stage *-* the pushing got even worse, it was so tight that we couldnt even jump! NaNaNaNa was playing and everyone was trying to get their best shot of gerard (i was in the middle) it was so hot there! a guy was throwing us water to cool down hahaha and there were some girls who where taken off the crowd. And the show was just starting. I looked around me and there were some girls really scared xD they were crying because of the pushing hahaha
The intro was amazing *-* i was getting sick...i was suffocating so i changed place...
The entire concert they had an incredible energy! They showed the the canadian flag, and even better, the quebec flag!!! we were all so happy :D
But even though this was an amazing show, there were some things that i didnt like :/
Ray never moved form his place, in between the songs the group turned their back to us.
But the thing that i didn't like the most, was at the end. The last song was Bulletproof heart after the song, gerard stopped singing, yelled a 'thank you' like he did every time in between songs, and went away -.- while frank, mikey and ray just leaved their guitars and went away without saying a word.
After they leaved, the staff started trowing the plums (the thing they use to play the guitar ¿?) and i got mine :D i have the one from frank iero, i didnt get the chance to get another ):
This concert was the best! the sound was amazing! the band had a lot of energy! they played all their greatest hits, and even one old song :D if you have the change to go to one of their concerts, GO! its definitely worth all the pushing, the yelling, the...everything! they have a lot of talent, im really happy that i got to see them, this will be forever in my memory, and if they come again, i will go without hesitating :D
After the show, the anti flag drummer was there and signed my ticket and i took a picture with him :D this was so awesome!
