Guys i found the address of where the 'Opera' MCR video was filmed

I did this for y'all so u better thank me for doing ur work.

Unfortuanatley for me it didn't say it immediately when i googled it

My awsome work featured below the cut (TLDR at the end)

So if ur wondering which vid im talking about i mean this one

(Sry for the random black background)

So anyway i paused at this really specific scene

Notice smth familier? That's right this place was also featured in 'Sad Clown' by Panic! At the Disco.

Heres a photo for comparison (ugly one ik)

The architectural structures pretty much exact. So r the paintings. So its def the same

I had only one problem.

Google wouldn't tell me where this was filmed

So i did a bit of searching through Reddit and found out that this song called A BOY IS A GUN by Tyler the Creator was filmed at this same location.

Its the same just without the paintings and some other shit

So then with a bit of searching where this video was filmed i finally found it (thx to unknown person on reddit who acc was deleted)

This is the place guys

Comparisn to Tyler the Creators video

Trust me its the same

TLDR: the address for where 'opera: was filmed from the MCR video is -

1288 S Oakland Ave Pasadena, CA 91106, USA

Okay, that was just... wow. Either tied or surpassed MCR Oakland as the best night of my life. I'll post later since I didn't get much sleep and need to leave for the airport soon (I did have enough time to sleep, my body just refused), but in the mean time I've been making voice recordings to summarize the events and it's already half an hour long and I haven't even gotten to sitting down for the show yet. I'm assuming I won't go into detail about stuff until Monday since I have a feeling I'll still need a bit to recover, but yeah, it was amazing!

I have one more bit to share before I leave, but first I just want to mention their stage manager Tammy because oh my god she's just so amiable and great to talk with?

Anyway, the final bit I wanted to share before I head off is that I normally am very much "I don't want to bother people they're probably busy" but I made friends with this mother and daughter (who were also both awesome and amazing people) and the mother was not afraid to approach people so somehow I got pictures with Joe Walker, Brian Rosenthal, and Curt Mega? (I also got a pic with all the bros later which I don't have yet, but that was during the Kickstarter reward tier thing which I'll talk about later. Also Joey Richter hugged me?) Anyway pictures, unfortunately they also have MY face in them but I guess that's a risk you have to take when you get your picture taken with someone. Also me in front of the marquee.

um so anyways before today is officially over i just want to say thanks to everyone who followed me a year ago and have stayed. and also to those who didn’t and just made a nice little post or comment about me. it really helped me out last year and continues to make me happy now. i really think of mcr oakland as having changed my life (and obviously not just cause i had a little 15 minutes of fame). the pandemic pushed me to a new low mentally and that concert, the build up to it, and the mcr community on tumblr (but especially the concert and finally experiencing the thing i’ve dreamed of since i was 12 years old) filled me with a new sense of joy and appreciation of life and motivation to keep moving on and so many things have changed for me since then and having so many people being so vocally supportive and kind to me for just being, well, me was a wonderful cherry on top of it all

and if you have no idea what i’m talking about that’s also okay. just something small that’s added up to a lot and it’s the one year anniversary and i’m just being sappy looking back on it

i love you all <33333

i saw a thing about concerts on twitter so i wanted to repost >_> lol

first concert: smash mouth lmfao…

last concert: tennis <3

best concert: of montreal @ the fillmore, mitski both times, svt @ oakland arena, los campesinos @ august hall

worst: loona in sf LMAO but not bc of them the venue was just literally the worst thing ever

loudest: mcr (due to gerard’s crazy ass playing that synthesizer at an ear shattering volume. love u queen but damn…). also aquabats LOL

seen the most: of montreal like four or five times. my mental illness era…they’re very good live though in my defense

most surprising: kero kero bonito bc EVERYONE was moshing & i was not expecting that vibe lmao
