You wear me ouuuuut!

[exsequar]

Hahahahaha. Hahaha. Haha. I just spent $100 on My Chemical Romance tickets. Hahaha. This is me laughing so I don't cry.

Okay, let's ignore the money. Let's focus on the fact that they're THE BEST FUCKING SEATS IN THE HOUSE.



See that blue block near the bottom with the number "101"? See how it's right next to the stage? See how it's right next to Frankie's side of the stage?

YEAH. YEAH. IT'S LIKE THAT. THEY'LL BE RIGHT THERE. So close I could LICK them. OH MY GOD. I'M SO EXCITED I'M KIND OF VIBRATING. I'm almost more stressed about the expense and how my parents are going to react, but, I'm sure that will pass, and you know in a lifetime what's a hundred dollars (plus bus plus train plus plane, rinse and repeat, um.) compared to the memory of this experience? The next time I get the chance to see My Chem will most likely be a couple years from now, and the chances that I will still be freakishly passionate about them? Um, zero. Right now, I listen to them on repeat 24/7 (or, well, I did when I had an iPod!) and now I get to see them in the flesh. They're gonna BLOW MY FACE OFF. Or rather, OUR FACES OFF, because I am going with the fantaaaastic erode and we're going to have THE BEST TIME EVER.

*rocks back and forth* I'm okay I'm okay I'm (not) okay. :D

(FRAAAAAAAAANKIE.)

(ETA: Fuck. Fucking fuck in a fuck fuck. So here I thought my plane ticket would be nice and cheap, on the order of 10 Euro round trip. I click through to checkout and...... there's 60 Euro worth of taxes.

....

WHAT THE FUCK. I'm trying really hard not to cry. And I can't back out now. Obviously. Um um um my parents are going to MURDER. ME.)

ETA2! I just talked to my daddy, because I knew he would talk me down. I thought he'd be more disappointed than he was, but he was mostly ruefully amused, and affectionate. He said that he had no room to talk, being quite the wild child back in his college days, and that he just asks for some subsequent frugality from me. In conclusion? MY DAD IS THE BEST EVER. And no you can't have him :D So I feel much much better and can start SQUEALING MY BRAINS OUT because HI HI MCR FRANKIE AND GEE AND MIKEYWAY AND RAY AND MAYBE BOB. AMAAAAAAAAZING. (You wanna know the best part about the conversation with my Daddy? HE'S AN MCR FAN. YUP. COOLEST DAD EVER. He absolutely loves Three Cheers, because Ray is a guitar GENIUS, so my dad was like "What side of the stage are you on? Are you on the guitarist's side?" and I was like HAHA DADDY ILU.)

:D:D:D

THIS IS AWESOME AND MADE OF WIN!!

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

IS IT? IS IT REALLY? BECAUSE I KIND OF NEED TO SELL M FIRST BORN TO AFFORD THIS. (I just found out the plane is MUCH more expensive than i thought. fuck.)

*fetal position*

[jezzabe.livejournal.com]

IT REALLY IS. BECAUSE WHAT IS A FIRST BORN WHEN COMPARED TO GEE, AND MIKEY, AND FRANKIE, AND RAY??

I hope you get Bob too, but i don't think they're going to let him play with his wrist.

yeah budget airlines in europe will fuck you on taxes. i'm flying to copenhagen at the end of this month and paying £70. all i can say is, you're lucky you guys are on the euro!

if you haven't already you should try RyanAir or EasyJet (but you probably have as those are the biggest ones, especially RyanAir for Ireland). and check lastminute.com which is pretty good...

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

It's so LAME! I was like lalala, 99 cents there, 7 Euro back, woohoo! And then... total: 70 EURO! *facepalm* How freaking lame. And yes, that is on RyanAir. Sigh. I'm just gonna have to suck it up! And it's all good, really, cause my dad is awesome. *points at ETA2* Thanks for the advice hon :)

[flamingkitten.livejournal.com]

no problem!

and yeah your dad (as i remember) was always pretty cool, although i think he yelled at me once for stealing peter venetos' crayon. but you know, i've decided to let that go haha.

ps. i wanna go back to CT and visit all my old teachers! i have no clue if mr. riedell is still there but i would love to see him plus your dad!

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Mr Reidell isnt there anymore, unfortunately! He left a couple years ago. Mrs. Eagleton, Mrs. Santoro, Mrs. Raidt... they're all still there, though I don't know if you had any of them! But of course my daddy's still there :)

Oh Peter Venetos. We had a complicated 13 years, LOL. I'm sure he deserved the theft of his crayon! Heehee.

[musical-emjay.livejournal.com]

D: Oh dear.

On the one hand, OMG MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE AIIIIIIIGHHH *SCREAMS*. On the other, ZOMG IT COSTS AN ARM AND A LEG :/

Um...oh god, I wish I could wire you money D: D: D:

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Stupid money! But it is ALL GOOD because my daddy is MADE OF WIN. Plz to be seeing ETA2 for details :D

*SCREAMS* FRAAAAAAAAANKIE. RIGHT THE FUCK THERE. OHHH MY GOD.

[affectations.livejournal.com]

A $100 is pretty expensive. On the other hand MCR OMG! I think it's going to be so worth it because it's MCR you know and you definitely won't regret it! Exactly, this is like an opportunity you definitely shouldn't miss so yeah don't feel too bad about the money. OMG YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THEM AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE SO CLOSE TO THEM. THAT'S SO EXCITING. YAY!! :D:D

[jamesinclair.livejournal.com]

I remember when I saw them and you had no interest at all in the band.


And yeah, Ryanair advertises tickets for free, but the taxes are large

[sofiaviolet]

It is SO FUCKING WORTH the expense and the hassles of travel and all of that to see My Chemical Romance live. Have a fan-fucking-tastic time!

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

I spent $117 on Dane Cook tickets (FOR THIS THURSDAY OMG EEE!!!!) a couple of weeks ago, so I definitely know about your reaction. My parents took it well; I was surprised. XD

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Oh man, craaazy. But yay for cool parentals! Sometimes they're more awesome than we expect :D Have an awesome time, yaye!

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

COME SEEEE MEEEEEEEE.

!

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Dude, I'm in London all day Thursday and that's it! CAN WE MEET? CAN WE CAN WE????

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

THIS Thursday? AAAGH. I'll be at home in Oxford then, and I don't think I can make it to London. DDDDDD:

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

No no no NEXT Thursday, the 15th! CAN WE CAN WE?? *GLOMPCLING*

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

*flails* I have LECTURES! JADKASFJSFDH :(

But, but, we will meet on the ASTRAL PLANE. Or SOMETHING. Are you coming back to the UK any time? Come for the mad party that will be me, Jules and Mel all in the same house in January. COME. *wiggles eyebrows*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

LECTURES ARE LAME >:( What about Wednesday night? Hopefully I'll be flying in then, probably getting in kind of late but. We could meet up and hang out for the evening and perhaaaaps I could crash with you? I mean, as it is I'm crashign with a friend of a friend, and I don't much want to impose for two nights, and I would love to seeee youuuu. Then I could meet up with Matilda on Thursday and we'd go to the concert and it would be grand! Yes? No? Definitely not?

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

I would love that, but Birmingham's pretty far away from London, and if I came up to London the Thursday lecture problem would still happen.

SUCK.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

SUCK INDEED. Sigh sigh sigh.

Well, I have a friend in Wales that I pretty much need to see while I'm over here, since I've never gotten to meet her before. (You and Mona are the only people I've met twice! Feel special! ;)) I'm planning on coming over maaaybe sometime over my Christmas break or some such. What and when exactly is this January thing of which you speak? I need to see my Robin!

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

Oooooooh! Yay! Jules is coming on the 2nd and leaving on the 5th, and Mel will be there at the same time, so the fangirl will be running pretty high in the house anyway. COME OVER. I would be sooooooooo happy to see you.

[pau494.livejournal.com]

EEEEE!!!!!!! MY CHEM!!! And your dad is the COOLEST. Well, you're on one guitarist side, hee! SO HAPPY FOR YOU, BB.
