I was at the mall which is like RIGHT next to the venue, I go in Spencer's, come out and I thought I was seeing things b/c Syn (Brian, I use both) was right there. Well, massive anxiety came up and I couldn't approach him (plus the guy with him looked really scary) so my sister and I walked around and I realized, I needed to go upstairs to go to JCPenny's (I was lookin for this belt) and we get there and there he is again. Again, anxiety...didn't approach. Realize, after he goes downstairs, (which I didn't know was there, I don't live in that area) that I need to go down there, that's where belts for girls are... Get down there, don't see him, figure we're safe...
nah, I find my belt and I Feel someone looking at me, I turn around and there he is, walkin by smiling and shite. I blushed and turned away... <hits head> and than freaked out in the foodcourt and could not leave the mall fast enough...

And in line...well, nothing much happened, but this guy was screaming about how the cops needed to direct us a bit more and like a minute later, this cop comes out, starts screaming that there's two lines and we need to get our asses moving (yes, a cop said: ass, it was great) and I got in, 18V was already on n my sister had to throw away her key ring...hmmm <shrugz>

Twas the first time I'd been to Rock City (teh venue) by myself, and only the 3rd time I'd been overall O.o Anyways, Rock City's in Nottingham, and as I'm not in Nottingham, me and my mate had to catch a 45minute bus.
That we missed -.-
So, not wanting to wait for the next one, we looked for the nearest bus that said "Nottingham" on it, and got on that one.
It took 1 and a half hours O.O
So, yeah. Already running late, I decide i know exsactly where I'm going.
Long story short I get us lost for almost two hours. In the rain. In Nottingham. Where people get shot ¬.¬
I dont think my mate has still fully forgiven me =/ I felt terrible.
And we missed the first band.
Not really a good story, but it was something that happened before the show ^^;

But after the show made up for it. I met/molested teh Brian ^^ and I was random to Val.

I will probably always have to travel to see them. Until I move out of Fargo, North Dakota. But they're worth the money to travel a few hours if you can even afford that. Dumb luck that Retta and I got to. oh and eBay. <nods>

it annoys me, because bands never come to NYC, which is really stupid, considering how well-known this fucking city is...

We got to the Hammerstein Ballroom at about 1:45pm (WAAAYYY later than I originally planned). There were already approx. 30 people there. Soon enough, security decided to break the line in half, so as not to block a nearby parking lot entry. We, unfortunately, got sent to the second half. Sudeenly, we happened to notice that there were ALOT more people (who were DEFINATELY not there before) in front of us. Needless to say, we got our spots back and were obligated to tell all other latecomers where their place on the line was. So we waited, and waited, and waited....I almost got into a fight with some chick who thought she was slick by skipping me, after I SPECIFICALLY told her that the back of the line was "down there"....i waited some more...finally we were let in at 6:30 (an hour late) and had our bags checked. We proceeded to the floor, where we found a spot in the second row...It took another 20 mins for Eighteen Visions to get ready.

Outside Tsongas Arena, my mom and I are waiting, blah blah blah. We got there like, an hour early. So there's these three guys in front of us, going off in there shit-for-brains glory, screaming "YEAH, COHEED, BECOME FUCKING SELL-OUTS LIKE AVENGED FUCKING SEVENFOLD" at the top of their god-damn lungs.

Me: ¬___¬;;;
Mom: o_o Assholes.

Okay. 20 minutes later.

Guy one: Did you notice that 90% of those little scene kids have A7X shirts on?
Guy two: Yeah, fucking sellouts.

Me: ¬_______________¬;;;;;;
Mom: o_o; Please don't go on a rampage, I don't have the money to bail you out of jail.

And then we finally get inside, but I was searched like 20 times because of the god damn bag I was carrying. [In the bag was a stuffed animal for Johnny, a notebook, some sharpies, and a pen.]

At least I met the guys after the show. =] And I was in the second row for the whole show. ^__^
