Oh and this is Ariel's outfit on the side:)

*Ariel Collins*

Today was the day of the concert. I was so excited that I even forgot about the cast in my hand.

It was eight pm two and a half hours before the performance and I was freaking out in what my outfit should be. Ollie decided she would help since she already chose her clothes, in comparison with me.

I took my time with the shower, but when I got out I saw that my room was full of clothes and shoes. I groaned sitting on the chair that fortunately had no clothes on it and stared at Ollie who was holding up  different outfits. Groaning loudly, I stared trying on everything she told me to before we finally settled on a pair of white denim shorts, a Whitechapel tank top and black army boots. 

After all that time I've learned that whether a performance is held in a stadium or outdoor I should always wear tank tops or t shirts along with shorts because of jumping around and stuff. Also army boots were really helpfull if you were entering mosh pits, 'cause you were definitely going to be stepped up. 

Ollie settled for a pair of black shorts with black leggings as usual and a white tank top that wrote 'I prefer the drummer' that went perfectly with the white doctor martens that I'd lend her. She straightened her long hair and quickly did the same for mine since I couldn't do it on my own. 

She applied her make up and did the same for me. We both had heavy make up. Mine in the shades of black that made my blue eyes wild and pop while hers were a mix of white and black that made her eyes like a cat's. Soon we were both out in her car, driving quickly towards the arena. 

I was clutching my tickets tightly, the VIP pass hanging from my neck.

Soon we were right outside of the enormous stadium, parking close to the entrance. I wasn't sure if that was a good idea but I sure as hell wasn't in the mood of walking. Shortly after we were inside, our tickets and bags checked. I run towards the front clutching the metal bars that seperated the stage from the crowd for dear life. I was sure as hell that I was going to be pushed so hard though but I didn't care. I wanted to be able to see Jonathan's facial expressions the whole time.

Fortunately there were no supporters for the band and they appeared at eleven o'clock. 

"Good evening everyone!" Jonathan said as soon as he came in view. I screamed in the top of my lungs with the rest of the crowd in the stadium -which I might say was full- making him smile and look around. His eyes were shining as he greeted us and the rest of the band was setting their musical instruments. Aaron was in the far left as usual tapping the microphone softly and plugged his guitar which was an Ibanez in his Marshall amplifier. Zach stood on the far right and did the same as Aaron, minus the microphone tapping. Jim the bass player was diagonically to Aaron, holding his Fender bass in place. Last but not least Andrew got on stage sitting behind his drum set making me smile widely. 

"How are you doing tonight Florida?!" Everyone screamed again as I raised my good hand to Jonathan. Ollie had lit a cigarette and was smiling widely.

"Our first song for tonight is from our album The Returners. And it's called Unspoken!" Everyone cheered as the song started.

"I've got something here worth fighting for!" Jonathan started and Jim, Aaron and the rest of the crowd yelled loudly, "Give it all, give it all, give it all!" 

When the song ended I was squashed between the metal bars and a man's body behind me but I didn't care. The setlist was amazing. After Unspoken followed Faith Or Forgiveness, Slipping Away from their new album which I purchased, Chrono, Outlive, Shiner, and Greater Distance.
