okay so like over a week late, but obligatory wwwy post time lol
god it was Crazy. both good and bad. but the mcr part especially was wild. I was really overstimulated and exhausted and kinda over it yk. and then they came out and it was fun!
honestly being exhausted and overwhelmed was kinda part of the vibe. like we were all So tired, crammed together like literal sardines. there was No room to breathe or move and yet somehow people were making circle pits right next to us and it was Insane. but in a Good way.
and yk I couldn't see shit. I'm short and there were too many people so despite how, relativly, close we were to the stage, all I saw was the tops of the screens. but the Emotion was still there. it felt a bit like people just doing a sing along rather than a concert (tho that might just be bc I was shutting down lol) but it was FUN
and my all time favorite part/thing was how Into it everyone was. gerard was singing the song yk and people around me were each singing different like harmonies. best example is mama and famous last words and Sleep (god sleep killed me fuck)
famous last words was insane cause I realized about half way through the final bit that it was *me* screaming the 'or dead' bit as gerard sang. like I could hear myself. it was WIld and it really made it feel connected again. I think that's my point. the festival felt really impersonal but the crowd for MCR changed all of that. we were performing and living it out Just like the band was. the exhaustion and everything Fed into it.
I saw after the fact people talking about how mcr really leaned into the meloncolic, growing horror of Black Parade. it's dark and haunted and Sad but also kinda a fuck you at the same time. and that's how it felt ot Be there. we were all zombie like but singing every word and Losing our shit and singing the songs right along with them.
idk man it was Insane and I'm still like trying to piece together how i feel weeks later.
TLDR: MCR nailed the theme and this was the most 'connected' and also 'disconnected' I've ever felt at a show
also also I got to do my favorite thing which is wave flashlights at people super far away. this time they weren't across a stadium they were up high in apartments (hotels?) next to the festivle grounds. and they waved back and that is my favorite little human interaction of 'hi, you're way too far away to see and ill never meet you again but HI!'
#all this being said#I wanna see MCR in Actual concert#it did really suck at times not being able to see anything and it wasn't worth being crammed together like that#like I had fun but never again tbh#I wanna see MCR like I get to see fob yk?#idk if that's possible tho with how Big they are and the crowds they draw#d rambles#oh last thing#no pictures from this bc I didn't get a single good one of MCR#all I got was backs of people's heads and stuff#tho I might post a photo of frank from the dunes show bc I was Super super close for that oen#wwwy#mcr
