erilyn: gabe and mikey's hips (fob-petepatrick)
coming back from brisbane and pre-show )

Our seats were pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. Same row as for Panic/TAI/Cobra, about 15 seats closer to the stage (stage left, ten rows back, middle of section closest to stage). And the stage setup was very spartan, so there was nothing on the sides to obstruct our view like we had a bit at that show. I'll mostly only mention stuff that was different to the Brisbane show (though if you make it through that WALL OF TEXT, I should give you a cookie).

Please don't direct link to my files, or link to my journal in communities/forums. Video and sound quality is pretty reasonable in all of them, and the talking is understandable in the videos that are mostly them speaking.

Hey Monday - they were a lot of fun again. A number of people around us didn't seem to realise that Pete had come on stage (though his mic didn't work properly) until Cassadee thanked him as he left. And the spotlights weren't manned yet, so when the guitarists came down to the front corner stage bits, they were rocking out in the dark :( I noticed Cassadee side-stage during FOB (well after she'd come out for Sugar), just leaning against the stage and watching.

I don't know why he's wearing a headband either.

The All-American Rejects - Tyson continues to be crazy like a really crazy fox who lives in Crazytown. Nick was dressed like he thought he was performing with a different band. Setlist change - Stab My Back instead of Paper Hearts. Tyson told off everyone in the seats who was sitting down - though I'm not sure if he said you'll get internal haemorrhoids or if he was asking if that is why people were sitting. And he told security to give water to the people in the pit, must have looked nuts from the stage cause he didn't do that in Brisbane.

Nick slowly moves in for the kill - then runs away.

This really is such a pretty song.

This file was initially labelled guitar sex. Plus, Tyson does that hip thing (but not as much as I've seen him to do). But yeah, Nick rocking out in front of me is only matched by Mike on his knees.

LOVEBITCHLOVE! Also, Tyson making horns.

Fall Out Boy
During setup, [livejournal.com profile] sinden asked me if there was any pyro during Brisbane show (no), cause of stuff that was getting put out. Good call, cause there was quite a bit for this show (and others, maybe Brisbane was the only flame-free one). Some fireworks, and lots of gas jets. We were a bit worried when Joe would wander and spin around too close, cause hair is so flammable. DNW flambe!Joe :( Setlist change for Sydney was Patron Saint instead of Grenade Jumper in the encore. We were at a really good angle for watching Andy. 14 videos and some other stuff - if nothing else, I totally recommend the videos where they're talking, fucking hilarious )

[livejournal.com profile] shihadchick and [livejournal.com profile] anne_elliot - remember how we were noticing several very large cruise ships on Sydney Harbour on Sunday? Or the large naval vessels we saw around Garden Island?

naaaaah, those aren't big ships...the Queen Mary 2 was back in Sydney today.

I had a facial (lol) last night, as there was a two for the price of one special at a spa in the city, so me and a manager from work went together. It was soooo good.

Video quality isn't great, but at about 2:55 Pete chokes Patrick, if you're into that sort of thing ;)

I have 59 tabs open. Was only a few weeks ago that I got it down to about 6 tabs.

Quite rightly, everyone has been all over this twitter from Pete - ztnewetep mikey way has the best pictures on this damn thing.

But you know what really made me do a double-take when I was reading today's twitters?

backstreetboys Girls it's PANIC time. Do your dance!!

which made me think of Panic's Halloween video, which was totally influenced by the Backstreet's Back video, and then my brain entered a recursive loop of Backstreet and Panic...
