Madison Square Garden 5/9/08

The show last night was amazing and emotional. Instead of boring you all with details from my journey from Miami to New York I'm just going to copy the highlights/things that just stick out in my mind that i wrote of in my journal. I put pictures, and they are kind of massive, at least they were while I was typing this, so just a warning.

-Frank was enthusiastically singing along during parts of songs

-During Teenagers Gerard made us sing one part and after we finished Frank had this super cute smile on and clapped

-For the intro to I'm Not Okay Gerard said something along the lines of "you dont know the ____, the chachacha, karate, jujitsou...i dont wanna, i just want to dance!!"

-Gerard went over to Frank at one point and sang into his microphone with him

-From what I saw it looked like Gerard and Frank were wearing matching black vests

-Gerard patted Mikey on the back twice and during Famous Last Words he picked him up. 

-During The Sharpest Lives Mikey got this awesome bass solo thing. It was so cool. His fingers were all over the place!

-Before House of Wolves Gerard started howling

-Gerard said they would come back with an album full of cowboy songs

-Bob threw his sticks super high and far behind him multiple times

-During the end of Welcome to the Black Parade Bob has to hit two cymbols on the left and the right alternatively and I just like the way he did it, he would like flip his head to the direction of the one he was hitting, if that makes sense

-Gerard wanted to see us do the wave and told us all to sit down, but then Ray told him we're supposed to be standing up and then Gerard said that this would make it more dramatic or something like that. (this also included Gerard noticing a fan telling him to do the wave in the other direction, to which other fans responded by saying it was supposed to go in the direction he said and he agreed with them)

-Gerard told the story of how he and Mikey saw the smashing pumpkins here and Mikey told him that this is what he wanted to do and Gerard said "Okay, Mikey, we'll do it." 

-Ray wanted to take a picture of the crowd with his camera he loves (information courtesy of Gerard)

-My sister said that Ray was crying at the end, but I couldn't see that clearly through my own tears so I didn't notice!

-The last thing Gerard said (twice) into the mic was "If we never play a show again, keep yourself alive." 

The setlist as I remember it. (In no particualr order except the first and last songs. And I may have left some out.)

This is the last picture I took, right before they finished Helena. Very interesting, at least I think so.Curse that cable blocking Gerard's face!

Feel free to use my pictures for whatever, you dont need to ask or anything! =)

Oh and I'm pretty positive Lyn-Z was behind the pit in the sound/lighting area. I saw people constantly coming to her before MCR's set and signing stuff. But I was kind of far away from there so maybe someone can confirm or not?

I am really sorry if I formated this wrong or anything!
