My parents weren't lying to me. They actually bought Life On The Murder Scene for me if I quit complaining. So, now if I complain about them not letting me go to the concert, they'll take it away from me. Now I can only complain on here.
maybe one day...

well, my mom is letting me go see MCR in april only because she likes them too. and she always said that if i ever wanted to go see them and i could. so, that's how i got to go. but when i wanted to go see P!ATD, she complained for hours. i really had to complain for weeks straight for her to take me. haha.

Guys seriously. No offence but I hate when people gather all this self pity and blog on Myspace after one try for the tickets.

If you really want to go to the concert DO NOT TAKE NO FOR ANSWER!!

My Chem are my angels sent from Heaven and there is nothing, NOTHING that will stop me from seeing them. I cleaned and cooked and made the grades and did my homework and pleaded and begged and I tried and tried and tried. My mother gave in and I'm going for my first time in april. It took 3 motherf**king YEARS to have the tickets in my hands and I've never been so complete in my life. Hell I even got one for my best friend for her birthday.

DON'T GIVE UP

Giving up is like saying you didn't want to go in the first place.

Tell your parents how much they mean to you (in an thought-out intelligent way with plenty of reasoning and good arguement)
Do your best in whatever you do (including school, chores, after school act., etc.) and MAKE A STAND and never, NEVER HANG YOUR HEAD. Keep fighting, keep tyring.

I'm sorry for being so cut and dry, but seven pages (mostly) of this crap is too many.

well my parents are the strictest parents in the world. they didnt want me going to any concert unless it involved and orcestra. haha yeah i know thats lame. but see i made an [essay & list/ thing] with over 75 reasons on why i should be able to go. i cleaned the house for 2 weeks straight and begged. i told my mom that i would lock myself in my room for the rest of my life and never be the same again, i also said that they will be sorry [ i wouldnt reccomend saying that] all it did was freak out my parents.

my mom finally broke down after hours of me begging and crying. she made me print out lyrics [which i changed a bit to fit her fancy] haha it worked, it turns out that my friend just bought floor tickets on saturday for the may 2nd show!! now my parents cant tell me no.

ooh say its ur birthday present... i guess it worked for me.
i also told them that im not the same skirt wearing pigtale haired girl i was when i was 5 i told them that im the same person but with a differnt perspective on life and that they need to accept me for who i am. try telling them sometime about the respect factor.

Message me if you want any other advice-- im good at giving it.
and i can probally think of other ways to get them to say yes.

yeah, my parents are SO strict, at first they said no, and then I begged, and then they said as long as you have someone there to protect you...so my brother is going...and hahah this is funny, my grandma actually convinced them..I <3 her.

So, get your brother, or someone very strong for protection, or have your grandma talk to them. XD
lol.

my parents always let me go to concerts. but its persuading my cousin's step dad to let her go with me. [i just wanna say that hes a dumbass and won't let my cousin do anything.] so i always tell them that we'll be responsible and get some good seats, keep my cell phone on at all times so they can call, and other things like that. i'm not sure about the whole hotel thing but yeah good luck with that.

Okay so what worked for me was to make a folder of all the stuff having to do with the concert.

rules, parking, how to get there, how many people will be there (so maybe i lied on that one), security, maps of the venue, use logic against them.

This usually works for me GOOD LUCK!

Ironic to this board as it may come, My mom actually is letting me go without me begging and pleading....
But she gets to go too. I can only imagine explaining that to them, if I ever meet them...

And, luckier than that, I'm missing school...
But, I'm guessing she's got some revenge plotted for me, like she's going to hold Gerard hostage and force him into assless chaps, and she's gonna tell God to make it rain... Then, she's gonna tell her Guns N' Roses incident... *not again*

I'd just be like...
-mum, dad, sit down please...we need to talk about something important...
and be all formal.
hmmmm if they said no I'd end up crying and throw stuff in their faces (not literally) about how they always do stuff they wanna do...
