Hey, quick question (if anyone comes here....) How long was the concert? (I hate to be even asking...I wish the answer was forever, but hey...!)

On the 9th, they came on at about 9 and the concert got over around 10:45? Maybe a little earlier. It had started around 7.

I went to both shows, met Ray + got a pic, met Frank + got an autograph, got an autograph from Mikey, a second one from Frank, was handed Bob's drumstick, and spent 115 bucks on merch. x_x I still wish I got the Toro shirt...

The second night was amazing, but the first seemed a little more warm because Geetard was so chatty. But it was cute on the second night, was it three or four times that he made the crowd sing happy birthday? Tehe
Oh, and I really liked what he said the first night about just wanting to inspire people to start a band. Everyone uses the whole 'MCR saved my life' thing too loosely, so you can never tell who's telling the truth. :/

Hey thanks! I've got a train to catch after the show so you've been a big help!

I loved it when he said that! It was funny too, because while standing in line I saw two of the girls from Nekkid Frankie and later when Gerard said that they were screaming like crazy. After the show I saw them with the guys from Billy Talent and their manager. Their photo showed up later on the Billy Talent boards. Talk about inspired!! Well, who doesn't get inspired by the thought of Frankie naked?? Shocked

OK like my mm gave him a letter earlier that day at the signing, and he said he would definitely read it, as moms dont usually do that. My mom said in the letter that she wanted to thank them for not only saving lives, but for inspiring me to do what i love to do: Start a rock band to follow in MCR's footsteps. its probably a coincidence but whatever......
it still made me go : In Love

I must say ... this show was the best night of my life.
I was there on the 8th but didn't make the second day ... I REALLY wanted to go for Gee's birthday! Crying or Very sad Oh well. One night was more than I could ever hope for, and it was better than I could have imagined.
My first MCR concert ... my first "real" concert, in my opinion.
The Crystal Ballroom was such a lovely venue. "Intimate", as Gerard put it.
Wow, just, wow. I loved that so much. I'll never forget it. Ever, ever, ever.

I wrote about it on my blog. I wrote so much, lol. I could write that all again here but instead I'll just link you to the post on my blog. Wow, that night was simply too amazing ... *remembers ... *
