Literally! The mosh pit crowd was so violent and rowdy that when jumping, my bra strap was slowly slipping off my shoulders! And it was soooo tight that I had no space to pull it back up! Haha... Seriously, the crowd was the rowdiest I have EVER experienced. They were pushing back and forth all the time! Within the first 15 minutes, there were quite a few people being pulled out cos they couldn't take it. The security guy even had to shine his torchlight to the floor to see if anyone had fallen down! This drove Gerard to say something like ''If you see people falling down, you fucking pick them up, alright?'' No one says ''fuck'' like he does! Haha...
Then there was this stupid vibrator teenager, with long hair, in front of me, and she would push her butt back against me occasionally. Stupid fag. I don't think she was past 16. During the fast songs, she vibrated all the way and when head banging came about, her hair was like tiny whips. I made it a point of putting my elbow right where her head would bang and I was succesful! Hee...
I'm not gonna censor the swear words cos he said lots of it, and it it just a word. Plus, I'm rushing to revise for my WET paper!

I was a little sad that they did not play Disenchanted. That is like a fan fav too. And it was the only song on The Black Parade they didn't play! We were in about the 2nd row, stage right. We were standing near Ray's corner and Gerard occasionally came over to our side. Frank did not come at all! And Mikey came over too. The best thing was, they entered and left from our side!!! And during the fake exit, I could see Ray the whole time taking a break and having some water!
If I were to say everything I wanna say in sentence form, this post will be half the distance of the Wall of China. So here it is in point form...
Highlights of the MCR concert:
- We stood there for almost 2 hours waiting for them to come out
- When ''Basketcase'' came on during the pre-show music, the crowd sang along
- Some people blew up what looked like 4 or 5 condoms and passed them around by throwing them in the air. They were all eventually popped.
- When the greatest band on Earth came out, I cried a little cos it was the realization of a dream!
- I was pushed, shoved, nudged, etc in the mosh pit. I'm just happy that it was not a guy standing behind me, but my sister! I remembered a guy was standing behind me during Avril's 1st concert, and my 15 year old self did not like that!
- One guy behind me had a confession: ''Gerard, I love you! I wanna have your babies!''
- During one of the many interludes, Mikey came over to our side and had to inhale
his nebuliser (like an asthma inhaler). He looked so vulnerable and sweet. He
then came forward and pumped his hands in the air which made us screeeaaammm!
- Up close, Frank looks shorter, Ray looks slightly better, Mikey is skinnier, Bob
wasn't there, I couldn't see Matt Cortez and Gerard is 10 times more handsome!!!
- Gerard and Mikey really look like brothers in real life! You can see the resemblance! I don't look like my sister much... But our mannerisms are the same, unlike Gerard and Mikey.
- Gerard, on behalf of the band, said ''this is our 1st time in Singapore! We wanna
thank all of you for making us feel welcome and I sincerely mean that. Its
amazing that we even get to play Rock n Roll for a living, let alone fly tens of
thousands of miles from that home to play for you guys. Thank you very much,''
right before singing Black Parade.
- Gerard also said ''We're gonna fuck you so hard you're gonna have trouble walking
tomorow!'' And I did! After jumping the night away, my calves and thighs were
hurting the next day cos 1 foot was on the mini-platform and the other on the
floor; it was a balancing act. My neck hurt too cos I was craning it so much and
I had to look straight up just to get some decent air.
- Gerard looked at our direction several times!
- While singing ''Prison'', Gerard looked in our direction yet again, and very
quickly on his left side, FLASHED US HIS RED BOXERS!!! It was the best part. And
he looked sooo sexy doing that! I can't imagine is he was really flirting. I
would just faint! :))))
- In between songs, Frank came to the centre of the stage and drank some water. He
threw the bottle he drank into the audience. He had another unopened bottle and I
just put my hand up to see if I could catch it. He threw the bottle, it bounced
off the hands of the guy that was was standing in front of me, filtered down to
the torso area of the people around, AND I CAUGHT IT!!!! I was screaming my head
off and immediately tucked it under my shirt!
Mikey and his nebuliser.
The big square is a limited edition Black Parade Vinyl record!
My sis and I with Frank's bottle in my hands!
It was the best night of my life. In the immortal speech of Gerard Way, they showed us the motherfucking time of our lives!
MCR ROCKED MY WORLD!!!
