Devour.

Heyhey!

Thought I'd finally blog about my second concert in October. This concert was occurring on the 26th of October, and it was the one and only My Chemical Romance.

My Chemical Romance (l-r Ray Toro, Frank Iero, Gerard Way, Mikey Way)

Now, I wasn't originally supposed to be seeing this band live during their World Contamination tour, as I sadly didn't get tickets first hand as they sold out quick. I actually didn't win any competitions either to see them live. However, my friends, friend, Poppy, was selling a ticket only 3 days before the actual concert. I successfully managed to claim that ticket, and ta da, I got to see them sexy four guys live.

Their date in London was their first date here in the UK in three years. I had to go to it. I just had to. My first ever concert was seeing these boys live on November 15th, 2007. Now, that would be three years ago on Monday. How time flies, huh? Anyway, the other reason why I was so desperate to see them is because they were going to be playing some of their new material off their new album Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys. I could not wait.

Anyway, ON TO THE ACTUAL DAY...

I woke up at 5am after only 2 hours sleep, I was definitely going to enjoy this day. I had to meet Rachel in Camden at 6, so I had to get ready to leave in a short amount of time. Unfortunately, I was half an hour late, but it didn't matter. We got to Hammersmith Apollo after a roughly 40 minute bus journey and found the venue in no time. There was already roughly 50 odd people there. I must admit, I wasn't that shocked.

I queued with Rachel for a good hour or so, until I had to make my way home again, and this is when I'm going to skip parts, just for the sake of it.

Anyway, I got back to the venue at around 3pm, and met up with Laura and Poppy, who had the ticket for me. We queued and queued and queued until 7pm, when doors eventually opened. It was actually a nightmare getting into the venue as the security guards stupidly opened up random barriers, so technically, there was no fucking point in queuing. Anyway, we eventually got in and were like 3 rows from barrier at the far left, right where Frank and Mikey would be. Exciting stuff.

Blah blah blah, the support "Twin Atlantic" were good, I guess. :] And My Chemical Romance were fucking fantastic. They played so many songs off their first album, Bullets and so many songs from the Revenge era. They also played the odd few from The Black Parade.. and four new songs from Danger Days including "Na Na Na", "The Only Hope For Me Is You", "Planetary (Go!)" and "The Kids From Yesterday".

Overall, the entire day was fucking beautiful. I loved it.

And that's the end of this blog, I'll blog about meeting one of my heroes another time, my hand hurts.

Ciao for nao.
