03/15/2007 - Oakland, CA - ORACLE Arena

I just came back.
and SHIT.
Words alone cannot describe how amazing it was. And Gerard called us the "rowdiest crowd on tour" (If that'st true), and Rise Against was insane. A guy puked before Rise Against started, and I thought there was a circle pit or somethin because there was a huge hole in the crowd; got pretty mad because I wanted to enjoy a few songs before having to fight through a mosh.
And Gerard...with his wierd sounds, like he was attempting to scat(I think that's what it was called).

Simply amazing, breathtaking. There was this one guy who came to watch Rise Against and was so won over...


Still wide-eyed at 1 am.

Not me, but then again I don't live in the area. I traveled about 250 miles out of my way to go see them and it was worth every mile! The show was fun. And yeah, that big circular empty space towards the back was a pit. It didn't get too rowdy except some dude punching me in the throat, but it was an accident so that doesn't count. I didn't like Rise Against much, their songs sounded too similar for my taste, but they did perform well.

Oh hey was anyone else on the floor and near the back towards the sound board? If so did ya see the six foot tall guy that stood there like a post in the ground the whole time? Didn't move, didn't mouth the words, didn't jump around, I'm not even sure he was blinking or breathing. Freaky right?

This was the 1st MCR concert I've ever been to. No words can discribe this most amazing experience. I am just so happy that Gerard's hair is back to long and black!!! I had so much fun!! I wonder if we were the most rowdiest crowd on thier tour... I know I went insane. xD

Creepy. LOL. No, I did not see anyone like that, but I think my friend comes close to it. He’s not 6ft though, but the idiot just stood there like a statue. >_>

For Rise Against, there were some hardcore fans at the barricade headbanging like crazy and one of them hit my noise with the back of his head. They weren’t even big MCR fans though, I wish they kinda let us at the barricade, but I was enjoying myself too much to worry about that. I like Rise Against, although I couldn’t recognize half their set because, yeah, you’re right, some of them sound alike.



It’s been weeks and I still can’t stop believing how amazingly awesome it was. I’m glad they didn’t do the whole production thing like Panic! did because it would have taken away from the show imo.

Portland, Oregon is their last show so far and the closest to me—I hafta go see The Black Parade again!

Yeah I'm gonna have to pass on the Portland show, I avoid Oregon like the plague... Crazy relatives. And if your friend is about in his 30s and dresses like he's just stepped out of the GAP catalog, it's the same guy.
