What A Show...

So the night started off pretty darn good.
Went over to Claudio's place. (Dad's friend)
Had a beer.
Watched some of the MegaDeth in Argentina concert.
Talked about music and some of his experiences with being a musician back in the 80's and 90's.
Pretty much just chillaxed.

Then we got to the arena... Started off with us having to sit in a line up and enjoy watching the guards walk around and not let anyone in even though they were supposed to open the doors atleast 15-20 minutes before we even got there... so finally about 10 minutes later they open the doors and start letting people in (while doing pat downs). Eventually i find out i'm not allowed to bring smokes in and so i end up tossing mine into the garbage Claudio stuffs his into his underwear.^^ Then to boot I have some random guy who works at the arena comes out and bitches at me for having a chain on my wallet and tells me i have to disconnect it and stuff it in my pocket... He walks off... I give him the finger...

Anyways. We get in, I grab food, Claudio grabs beer and then we eventually find our seats. So we sit there for a good 20 minutes and then finally Die Mannequin (the opening band) comes out.
I actually found them to be pretty good. Other then the fact whoever set up the sound for the arena truly sucked balls at it... couldn't tell whether the bass was playing or the guitar was.

So time goes by. Die Mannequin finishes their playlist, and my Claudio keeps drinking more beer...obviously becoming more and more drunk for each one he drinks. Which apparently causes him to go from the "Relaxed, Patient and Respectful" guy, into the "Unbalenced, Irractic, Impatient, Rebellous and Disrespectful" basterd. He ends up going to the bathroom and when he comes back, he tells me that the guard told him that we could move to any seat that was open. Yeah.... but before we moved he decided to light a smoke up in the arena... I mean the thought of it was nice but then when i actually looked around and noticed all of the guards around... I told him that I wasn't needing one at the time.

So amazingly he finishes the smoke without getting caught and we head down closer to the stage.
Sit around listening to random metal and classic songs on the arena speakers whilst talking about some random stuff including how *hot* some girls were to him. Not the most amusing talk i`ve ever had with a grown man but whatever. Shit Happens.

Then all the lights go *POOF*.
People start screaming, yelling, clapping and god knows what else.
Smoke starts to pile out from behind the curtains and you would never guess who pops out when the curtains pull back. Now if you guessed an Overpowdered in make up wanna-be transexual you were quite close!! It was Marilyn Manson! Now I will admit he wasn't that bad but if you compare his new stuff to his old (which he didn't play any of that i heard when i was there) ITS POLITICAL BULLSHIT! Eventually after listening to 5-6 songs Claudio decides to become even more impatient and unhappy with where we were sitting that he decides that we move all the way to the left and up even more. So yet again we move. Were walking across a whole bunch of people with Mr.Claudio being the drunk he was and almost attempting to grope every woman he passes with me behind him progressively saying sorry every two seconds. so after that little adventure we get to the spot that Claudio thought he'd be happy with. Well wouldn't you know. Two songs later.... He decides that the seats we sat in were apparently boring and he wanted to go back to our original seats... sooooo once again we start to walk back though a bunch of people which Claudio had already pissed off with me behind him once again apoligizing for his actions.... and once we get to an open stairway he decides "Hey!... Lets go to the top and walk back through all of the people up there!".... I decided at that point that i didn`t want to go through that experience again and I told him that I wanted to take the lower route through the downstairs where there is no people. Whats his reply to that? Grabs me by the arm and pulls me up the stairs... and so once we got to the top and hes let go of my arm I start bitching at him. I told him I was tired of his immature drunk crap and that if he wanted to make this night end well without us pissing off the whole arena that we head downstairs and go around.

Just by luck a guard decides to poke his head into our buisness. He asks to see our tickets and I show mine but just to fuck with the situation even more Claudio decides to tell the guard to fuck off and attempt to convey to the guard that were just trying to go back to our seats on the otherside of the arena... umm.... so obviously the guard wasn't impressed and starts talking to him even more... Not a good idea because Claudio decides to flip out at the guard. At this point I say fuck it, I tell Claudio to stop his crap and try to apoligize to the guard... I'm pissed and I just want to get back to my seat so I can just chillax and enjoy the rest of the show.
Start storming down the stairs with Claudio and the guard right behind him and right when we get to the bottom by the exit and and even bigger guard comes out of nowhere, grabs Claudio then grabs me and begins to walk us out of the building. So Claudio decides to try and give the guard a problem and fights with him all the way out while I just walk out as if i saw this coming.... which i did...

So the concert ends with Claudio getting literally thrown out of the building and me walking out and telling the guy to have a good night lol.... The rest is just history...

What a show....
