Wow! I've actually lived long enough to tell you this!

After tuition, my dad and I (yes, my DAD and I) went straight to the stadium. We reached there like 4.52 pm and thought we were very early, but shoot, so damn many cars clogged up the road! We went to join the super-friggin'-long line (actually, we cut queues =X) and was like, 100+ metres away from the entrance...? Hate those DiGi idiots who tore the tickets oh-so-slowly. *sulks* We had to wait for almost an hour before going into Car Park A (the venue). Shoot. There were millions of people squeezed together like a tin of sardines. Maybe even more packed than a tin. == Many people kept glancing at my dad, 'cause :
  • He's very tall
  • He's not very young
  • He's wearing a pink polo shirt
They kept exchanging glances and snickered. Some even smirked at me 'cause most of them were my age and went with their friends. Normal teenagers might think it's embarrassing to bring your dad and everything because it may make them look like a big baby. As I've said, I'm not normal. I'm neither embarrassed nor ashamed of my dad. I'm proud that I came with him and put up with you people's finger-pointing and I'm glad I could spend my first time at a concert with him. Friends, boyfriends and girlfriends wouldn't last forever, sweetheart. *nods knowingly* You popular wannabe people can grin smugly at me all you want, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN. And, I DARE you to bring your dad to an open concert with an American band next time. *smirks*

Then, there were some itchy fingers kept touching the feathers of a girl's red indian hat. It was Halloween and many were dressed as witches, wizards, clowns, angels, devils, etc. "F*** off my hat,"she said, and all the guys went, "Whoaaa..." The girl was mad and strutted out of the line(s), pulling her friend behind. Was friggin' pissed when we were near the entrance 'cause many brainless assholes kept pushing and pushing. I almost died 'cause my lungs got squashed and air could neither enter nor escape. Then, a bloke shouted, "DON'T PUSH!" and clenched his fists angrily. "F***ing pissed off," he whispered dangerously. Seems like a lot of people scold the F word in KL. *frowns*


Later, they tore our tickets and we went in, just like that. What happened to the "checking of bags" and "no cameras, video-taping and other video devices allowed" part? I was waving around my camera and they let me entered. Oh, well. It was only 5.37 pm but the middle area was packed. So, we aimed for the sides but unfortunately, many people kinda squeezed in. *glares*

This shows how awfully hot and stuffy the place is that made my hair so greasy. ==

We ended up at the left side and waited patiently. I was lucky. *evil grins* There were two kinda cute guys beside me. One was a Chinese and another was a concoction and had blonde hair. *jumps around happily*

So many fans...

...holding the yellow thingies (I have them, too!)...

...doing nothing...

...just waving at the camera...

...to get caught on national TV.

Just then, a girl with her boyfriend sidled up to me. She sorta stood on my left side and brushed against my BCG scar. Which was bleeding at first. *laughs madly* She was surprised and thought : Why is my arm so itchy? And she looked at my hand and thought I had some kind of disease. HAHAHA. Serves her right for wanting to squeeze with me (and wearing such a transparent blouse). Her boyfriend just glared at me and I glanced at my dad. He followed my gaze and doubled. That little wuss went to another spot quickly with his transparent darling after seeing a giant towering over him. HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Let's jam.

Kinda sad here. 'CAUSE I'M PISSED AND THINKING : WHERE THE HELL ARE THOSE EMCEES?!!!! -_-

We thought we saw something upstage...

...then we went wild!!!

But we died down. Boriiiiing.

Soon (obviously, I'm lying), Ian and Natalie (the emcees) from Hitz.fm told us about downloading DiGi's unlimited music on IDK what playlist bla (no cellphone, remember?) and threw (literally) some gifts to the crowd. I didn't get any. Then, they dropped the bombshell. "It's Disagree, followed by Pop Shuvit, One Buck Short, then only...?" "AAR!!!!!!!!!!!!" crowd shouted and banged those yellow thingies. Whoa, three more bands before AAR. Gosh, my legs hurt!

Disagree. Gotta admit this band's songs aren't that bad. For a Malaysian.

Some were playing kompangs...?

Pop Shuvit. He wanted to do a stage dive but he's too heavy. *smirks*

The heavens broke open. We quickly wore our raincoats (it's yellow in colour) and looked like retards DiGi mascots. People were staring at us now. That could be our Halloween costumes. *laughs bitterly* The lead suddenly shouted, "ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE RAIN???" And everyone said, "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Except two.

Spotted a Jack-O-Lantern...

One Buck Short.

Lead.

Strummm.

What's next? More waiting. == As the blonde workers tuned the instruments to perfection, the emcees entertained us again. After that, they were still tuning. *frowns* It's already past an hour. Everyone started chanting, "AAR! AAR! AAR!" LOL. I was friggin' impatient and so were the crowd. People started booing for another half hour. Just then, the song Move Along started playing and I was stunned. Well, I thought it was the speakers replaying AAR's songs. Again. People started jumping around the out popped the AAR!
Move along, move along like I know you do!!!

Tyson in his Native American headgear. HE'S THE SEXIEST GUY I'VE EVER MET. x3 (Though some of you may think he's gay. Screw you!)

Cameras came out instantly.

IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike.

Nick.

Move Along!!!!!!!!

And Tyson.

Nick.

So near, yet so far.

I'm in love with Tyson. =X

So, so hot.

LOL.


WE'RE THE SEXIEST CROWD AND HE'S THE SEXIEST GUY EVER!!

"I wanna tell you something dirty!" SEXIEST voice. xD

"Now, all of you say, "Dirty lil'..." SECRET!!!!!!!

Sexy!

Fei Ya said my hormones were raging, which sounds kinda gross. *cringes*

The atmosphere...

...I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.

Except for one part. A moron kept smoking and smoking and smoking. So inconsiderate. The place is already so hot and stuffy, and there that asshole was, smoking away without a care in the world. WTH. So we had to shift because nobody wants to get lung cancer, right? Hitched up behind a Malay guy - don't wanna be racist. He's tall but at least he wasn't smoking. Too bad. I was wrong. He was smoking, too. == I'm gonna get bronchitis or emphysema soon.

Sing your hearts out.

Very gorgeous.

Nick, the calm guy.

"Can I tell you something dirty?" HAHAHAHAHAHA.

The drummer and TYSON.

Shoot, hot stuff here.

The AAR's concert had to be postponed (it was suppose to be on the 10th of October, 2009) because Tyson had a knee injury. =(

But it seems like Tyson's knee is fully healed now. Extra bendable. =D

It Ends Tonight...
Laughing with / at...?

Raging hormones. HAHAHAHA.

COOL!!!!!!

I LOVE TYSON. I LOVE TYSON. I LOVE TYSON.

I don't know why many think Nick's hot. *raises an eyebrow*

Still prefer Tyson. 8D

Charming...

Me like this picture. Spotlights are magnifique!

My last snapshot of Tyson. *sniffs*

My ears were kinda deaf and my legs were really sore so I requested to head home before the concert ended. I regretted very much for doing so because I missed my favourite song - Gives You Hell. Sure wanna give myself hell. *rolls eyes*

Looking at the stadium outside...

...with It Ends Tonight still ringing in our ears...

...we left, leaving footprints behind but taking all figments of memories.

By the way, you could check out the news about AAR in The Star newspaper (Tuesday, 3rd of November, 2009). It's in the Star Two section, page T21, titled Feverish Pitch. And, of course, I plan to laminate that page.
Anyway, the concert was a blast but It Ends Tonight... TT___TT I Wanna, I Wanna... go again next time!!!!!!! x3 Oh, and thanks Sim, for giving me those tickets. =D
