WOW!!!!! All I can say is WOW! What a night. SO for all you out there who don't know 30 Seconds to Mars is:
Nom nom. Lead singer Jared Leto.
So last night my best girlfriend and I get ALL gussied up to attend his concert. I mean the whole nine yards. BLACK makeup, fake eyelashes, cute dresses....etc. I also made us earrings especially for the concert (OH and purple feather hair extensions). My earrings I took a lot of time on, with long black feathers, chains, and even swallow charms and a tiny key on each. Little did I know the BEATING they would receive.
First of all, a 30 Seconds to Mars concert does NOT bring a pretty crowd. I am talking some husssskky, tough ladies out there, and for some reason many of them over the age of 40. It also brings out some, for all better words, DOUCHEY guys. I'm sorry, its a 30 Seconds to Mars concert, not Slip Knot, not Metallica...ITS NOT OKAY TO HIT GIRLS
Here's my story:
So when the concert started ALL HELL broke loose on the earth. Okay OKAY, its Jared Leto. Mega movie star and eye candy, not to mention a great voice. But as soon as he came on stage me and my friend just go, "Oh no, he's a dirtbag". Sunglasses at night and a full poncho cape thing? nono...
Anyway, so suddenly from behind I get VIOLENTLY shoooved. Not just a crowd surge, but jabbing elbows pointed directly at my upper back. I get shoved so hard that apparently I dropped my purse, which luckily got stuck to my friend's dress. I look behind me to see this SHORT nasty guy, literally trying to pummel me to get infront. So as I watch him try to hit me again, I freak out and SWAT at him to get off me. He freaks out and starts yelling at me for being a girl and not being able to handle a concert. Then he goes after my friend! Yeah the crowd is moving, but he is going elbows first into my friends back. So yell at him and swat him away again!!! Then he's after me. He's freaking out, whining his ass off as his little girlfriend backs him up. Now I have the girls in the crowd on my side. They start yelling at him too, cuz they are getting pushed by me into them because of HIM. I start to signal the security guard and then finally I notice where I have been pushed....CENTER STAGE FRONT ROW.
Finally the crowds move around enough that the nasty guy is no longer directly behind me. Then my best friend almost gets into a cat fight! Some crazy girl is flailing around and freaking out to get in front too! My friend, being a gorgeous 5'8" girl just laughed at this tiny failing thing, pointed to that girl's boyfriend and said, "Control your bitch"....direct quote. The end.
So now the worst of the crowd surging is over and we are able to FINALLY enjoy the concert. Unfortunately Jared Leto incited the crowd, encouraging them to crowd surf and get up on others shoulders. MORE THAN once my head was used as a launching point for people. (Guess being a 5'10" girl in heels is sometimes a bad thing at a concert). And yes, my long hair AND my brand new earrings were being pulled every which way. I really expected to see bits of my hair and feathers everywhere at the end. BUT guess what! These earrings held up!!!!! Even when things got EVEN crazier.
Now I had been making eye contact with Jared Leto since I got to the front. (Guess being a 5'10"girl in heels is sometimes a good thing at concerts). He even yelled at me for not waving my hands in the air when he told me to. SO at the end when he was inviting people onstage, guess who was invited up with him. MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Oh wait, girl behind me FREAKS out, thinks its her and LEAPS to try and get over me. Onto my head. OW. Oh, and the earrings are still holding up...
Then Jared Leto points at me again and goes, "oh nono, this one, come on up". So I am lifted out from behind the gate by the HUGE security guard that somehow takes ALL my weight and lifts me over like a rag doll.
The rest is history, just an epic moment for me and my friend (who got the security guard to let her in as well). Have to say though, Jared Leto is a BIT cracked out looking in person. But it was still awesome and we sang the last song with him on stage. :-)
And guess what, my earrings were STILL in one piece. Fan tested, 30 Seconds to Mars approved.
