Singing, I can hear them singing...

SO BASICALLY GREEN DAY WAS THE BEST CONCERT IN THE HISTORY OF CONCERTS, PEOPLE. NOT EVEN KIDDING.

The Bravery, their opening band, was kind of crappy but whatever. Green Day came on with 21st Century Breakdown, and I swear to God I jumped up the minute the music started and screamed along. At first not that many people around me were being AWESOME but then Billie Joe was like "I want every motherf*cker in this room to get the f*ck up RIGHT NOW!" And of course everyone obeys Billie Joe. He's amazing. <3

Anyway, they played so many fantastic songs. My hands are, literally, bruised from the crazy amount of clapping I did. There was clapping, there was stomping, there was arm-waving, and there was fists-in-the-air. My feet were killing me on the ride home, because I did not sit down once in two hours.

There was one part when Mike (bassist) put on, like, bunny ears, and Tre (drummer) had on this flowered hat, and Billie Joe was cracking up the whole time, and then he put on a policeman's hat. It was epic.

They pulled people on stage and stuff, too! They pulled this one little kid up at the end of East Jesus Nowhere and it was the funniest damn thing I'd ever seen. Little Henry. I was jealous of that child.

He also got three different people to sing the three verses of Longview, and the first chick was SO off-key and it was horrid, the dude for verse #2 sang it wrong but it was okay. Billie Joe started laughing when he sang it wrong, but not in a mean way, just like "omg lol" sort of. The last girl who sang did fantastic though, AND THEY ALL GOT TO HUG BILLIE JOE. FEEL MY WRATH, PEOPLE, FEEL IT. I wanted to move into the pit, because Billie Joe said in the very beginning "We need about 200 more people down here" but my dad was like "No." *scowls*

Anyway, he got some kid from the audience to play the guitar for Jesus of Suburbia, which was so freaking cool dude.

There was so much fire and explosions and epic moving background screens and flashing lights and strobe lights and multicolored lights... it was so amazing. It was such a good concert, and I screamed along to every word. Yes, even the swearwords. I dropped more F-bombs and S-bombs last night than I ever have in my entire life. (considering I pretty much never say either of those swears aloud.) But dude, no one could hear me, and everyone was saying it, so I did not care one smidge.

I got this epic t-shirt, too. (:

OH and there was this freaking drunk pink Easter bunny up on stage in between sets, and I was like O_O because it was this huge freaking pink rabbit!!! WHY.

Anyway, Billie Joe is the coolest man ever born (he, like, mooned stage left. It was hysterical. Oh my God.) and so are Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt. Tre was like, conducting the crowd with his drumstick. I love him.

It was the best night of my life, and the best concert that has ever been concerted.

I was singing the songs all night long.

I had a Snickers bar for dinner, and when I got home at 2:45 in the morning, I collapsed into bed in my Green Day shirt and jeans. I'm still wearing them.

[sings to self]
Billie Joe: "I said Heyyyyy ohhhhhh."
Crowd: "HEYYYYY OHHHHH."
Billie Joe: "I SAID Heyyyyyy ohhhhhh."
Crowd: "HEYYYY OHHHHH!"
[/sings to self]

There was this one part when Billie Joe held the Heyyyy-ohhhh for like 2 minutes, and then the crowd had to repeat it back for that long. It was awesome.

He ended the show with Good Riddance (Time of Your Life), which was perfect cuz the lyrics go "it's something unpredictable but in the end it's right, I hope you had the time of your life..."

I certainly did, Billie Joe. I certainly did.

Tomorrow

I am so excited for the concert, peeps. Seriously.

Also, I love Harry Potter.
And Green Day.
And My Chemical Romance.
And the Young Writer's Council.
And Draco Malfoy.

But I think everyone is aware of my Draco obsession.

;)

Peace, huggles, and nerdy love to you all!

^ ^ ^
Green Day

As I'm sure most of you know, my birthday is on the 7th, which is, you know, YAY.
But my parents, you see, are very impatient people.
They did not want to wait until the 7th to give me my present.
So, on the 2nd, they handed me a large, extremely heavy box.
Inside was a stack of magazines.
Ha-ha, you say? But wait.
I removed the many magazines to reveal....
A Fed Ex envelope. Excitedly, I removed the envelope and looked inside. At first, I thought it was empty. But then, in the corner, were two rectangles of paper.

With boiling glee, I took them out.

And they were:
TICKETS

TO SEE THE FOLLOWING BAND IN CONCERT:

GREEN DAY.
GREEEEEN DAAAAAAY!!!!!

Needless to say, I squee'd like a proper fangirl and jumped up and down, clutching the tickets like they were gold.

I AM SEEING GREEN DAY IN CONCERT.
IN BOSTON.
I can't WAIT!

Green Day happens to be one of my all-time favorite bands.
And I am going to SEE THEM.

I HAVE THE BEST PARENTS EVER!
But it's not until the 20th.

I don't think I can waaaait.

*sings* Do you know your enemy? Do you know your enemy? Well gotta know the enemy rah-hey!
[/singing]

I love music. :D

All my followers get giant cookies.

Yay! Hugs! I'm so proud of you guys for being awesome! Everyone knows that by being awesome you have decreased suck levels by 13% each!!!

In other [unrelated] news, I am reading Outside Beauty by Cynthia Kadohata. I met Cynthia back in Arizona and have a hardback copy of "Weedflower" [which, coincidentally, I won] and it is signed by her! I love her books. Outside Beauty is a brilliant book so far, so intriguing and fun.

I finished Suite Scarlett by Maureen Johnson and it was one of the best books I've read in a long time. [lie; pretty much every book I've read since I started my book log has been amazing.] Spencer was my favorite character, I want to marry him.

Speaking of attraction...

I have discovered my... I don't know, the feature in the opposite sex that I find truly sexy.

You ready for this?
Arms.

Yes. Arms.

I just look at Taylor Lautner's arms in the New Moon Poster and I just want to pet them. They're so... GRAWR. Yummy!!!

And Gerard's arms... amazing. [Gerard Way, lead singer of My Chemical Romance, for the ignorant among you.] I have a picture of him on my Zune that, when I look at it, I don't stare at his face.
I stare at his sexyfine arms.

I realize this revelation may lose me some followers.... I AM NOT THAT CREEPY NORMALLY.

*ahem*

Anyway, I've been packing up my room since we move into our new house on FRIDAY!!!

I'm very excited. I'm going to have a Harry Potter/wizarding supplies shelf above my bed. I could pee joy. Harry Potter is my lover.

Also, listen to the acoustic version of Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin. It's gorgeous. And listen to 21 Guns by Green Day. It's off their new album and it's AMAZING. I could eat it for breakfast. It's lovely.

Anyway, have a good night/day/evening/midmorning snack/happy dance!
