The MOST Awesome Concert in My Diaries So Far



So I went up all the way to Kuala Lumpur again for another concert (it is further this time because I came back all the way from JOHOR and then got back to JOHOR the very next day!). Anyway, it was definitely worth it and have I missed it, I would cry! Lol.

Anyway, before I go any further, here's my thank you list.
1. God - For protecting and blessing us throughout our entire journey. And for letting me win the tickets in the first place. RM672 is the biggest amount I've ever won in my entire life (RM168 x 4 tickets).
2. DADDY!!!! - For being willing to drive us up to KL, wait for the whole concert to finish and driving us back.
3. Mummy - For allowing us to go.
4. Hitz.FM - FOR GIVING ME THE TICKETS OF COURSE!!!!
5. Sandra Wong - Somehow, I think she helped because daddy, Matt, Yen Pin and I spoke about asking her for luck and stuffs and I really won.
6. TuneTalk - For organising the concert.
And....
7. PARAMORE!!!!!!!!!! - For coming and performing!!!
Also, to Vinod and Terence for getting the tickets for me. =)

So I guess when it comes to concert, I'm no dancer or jumper. I think I prefer to relax and enjoy the show. Call me weird or whatever but that's just how I sway, people. And for the records, I love to record the show too because that way, I get to relive the moments over and over again. And I still have as much fun as those who yelled their lungs out and jumped like crazy. Lol. But put me in the rock zone and you'll see me ditching the cameras and then I would too go crazy as well. Lol!

Anyway, Paramore or Hayley Williams actually belted out 18 songs. It started kinda rough with the vocals as Hayley couldn't really keep up with the really loud band but as the show progressed, it got better. The acoustic songs (Never Let This Go, When It Rains, Where The Lines Overlap and Misguided Ghosts) were brilliant. Popular songs like Decode, That's What You Get, Careful and Pressure were spot on. The encores (Brick by Boring Brick and Misery Business) were FREAKING AMAZING. And and and, my favourite of the night, the song of my year, The Only Exception was pure master class. It was just so amazing.

And the band, they are are AMAZING!!! Josh Farro, the lead guitarist, was brilliant. So was Taylor York and Jeremy Davis. Also, the drummer, Zac Farro, he was brilliant too. And not forgetting, the lead vocalist, Hayley Williams. She was so full of energy, her stage presence was good and she definitely know how to please the crowd. Just amazing.

All in all, as far as my opinion and experience in concerts count, I'd say those who miss Paramore last night miss one hell of a concert. It was this music lover's opinion the best she has seen. It took them six years to get here but boy they rocked Kuala Lumpur hard last night. Should they ever come again, free tickets or not, I'm making my way to them again. No one does emo-pop punk music they way the do and for that, Paramore, YOU ARE THE ONLY EXCEPTION.
