November 28. Last night on tourzilla. Toronto, Opera House.

I had been looking forward to this day for the past 3 months, & let me tell you, it was nothing short of incredible. How many times in life are your expectations fulfilled, much less surpassed? I won't lie, I didn't want to have high expectations because I'm always afraid to be let down. But last night was definitely one of the best days of my life, hands down.

Jenn, Emma & I met Deb at the bus stop & we started making our way downtown. Let me just say that my toes are already about to fall off by this point, that's how cold my feet were. Anywhore, Jenn & Emma left us to go shopping for a bit, while Deborah & I continued towards the Opera House. After taking the subway, streetcar & walking a block, we finally get there around 12:30. There were about 7 people ahead of us in line, so we just hang around there. We went around the corner & saw the ATL & BLG tour busses. & Jack, who was walking around, talking on his cellphone. Deb & I looked at each other like *omg* & I definitely said Jack's name a little too loudly. I'm gunna say he heard me because he looked our way & after a few minutes, he walked into the tour bus. Haha, thanks Jack.

So, we hang around the tour busses for a bit longer & we see Martin walking out & down the street/into the venue somewhere. John then comes out & walks past us, but he was with a group of people so I felt bad stopping him & asking for a picture. He turns the corner, where the group of people waiting in line are sitting/standing & continues walking off somewhere.

So me & Deb kinda just hang around. We went across the street into the convenience store, & she takes out some money from the ATM & whatnot. Then we just got back in line, even though it hasn't gotten any longer since we left. We got some people to save our spots anyway. So we were just talking & everything when Matt Flyzik walks past us. I had my back towards him, so as I see someone coming I turn around but he continues walking, so I end up turning completely, trying to figure out who he is. Then I realize it's Matt & I really wanted a picture, but he looked like he wanted to get into the venue, so I just didn't bother. He knocks on the door & someone comes out & lets him in. And that's the last we see of him.. for awhile anyway. Then we continue waiting & John walks by again, so someone in line asked him for a picture and he said he would come back. But I don't think he did. *sad*

Then we find out Jenn & Emma got lost. How they got lost taking a streetcar from the Eaton center to the Opera house, I've got no f***ing idea. But they managed to get there eventually, hahah. So they take our spots in line & we leave. Smiling

So we just go chill by the tour busses for a bit longer. Vinny comes out in his pajamas & everything. & there's a group of people just talking to him. He was so excited to be able to shower that night. Lmao, he's so cute. Just for the record, I love this boy.. so much, haha. Oh & he tells us about all his merch problems & how they barely have merch left, which hella sucked. We were all just standing around All Time Low's tour bus, so as we're listening to Vinny talk, the bus door opens so I turn around and Rian's there. He goes "..hi", smiles & then shuts the door. LmaoLmao. Then Vinny was talking about how cold it was, haha. Oh & how hungry he was & how he'd love us forever if we got him taco bell. Vinny: Do they even have taco bell here in Canada!? LmaoLmao. No, vinny. We're that deprived.

So after Vinny left, we were officially on a mission to find a taco bell. Haha, anything for Vinny, right? Unfortunately, we failed to find one closeby. Actually, we didn't really walk that far, my feet were too f***ing cold. So we go back into the convenience store, & try to ask the guy where the nearest Taco Bell is. He has no idea, so Deb asks for some tape instead. She has to tape her cell shut, b/c she was a retard a few years ago & decided to play catch with it. :| Oh! Then we see some birthday cards & we're looking for one for Matt Flyzik. But we didn't find anything good. They were all really corny. & not corny in the good way. :| So she thanked the guy for the tape and we left.

Back to the tour busses, we find some people & just chill. I wrote "ily paul <3" on their tour bus with my finger. Haha & before that, Alessandra & Sarah (i think it was them anyway) were playing hangman on the BLG tour bus & the answer was All Time Low. Lolol. They asked Vinny if he would kill us if we wrote on their bus with our fingers & he said he doesn't care but their bus driver would. Hahah.

So then Rian comes out of their tour bus and we get some pictures. Alex Grieco also walks by and I got a picture with him as well.
Alex: Why are you guys here so early? It's so cold!
Us: Because we love you Alex.
Hahah, & PS: this boy is dressed in shorts & a sweater. Whatajokeee. Smiling We were like "if you really cared about us freezing our butts off, you'd let us on your tour bus!" Lol, but not actually.

Then Zack walks by and asks if there's a Subway around. It's actually like 2 stores away from the venue. I pointed him in the direction and he says thanks and walks along. As he's leaving we were like "we'll take you there if you want!" Haha, but I don't think he heard us.

So he left for Subway, with some people. After like 5 minutes, Deb & I went to make sure they didn't get lost. Lmao, I think we just wanted to stalk him?! Jokesss. We get there & Deb completely PUSHES me right in front of the door. I was like "wtfff. i don't want him to think we're f***ing creepers." So we see him, and we're happy he didn't get lost, lmao. Then we leave. Because we didn't want to be there when he came out.

Tour bus area, yet again. We find out that during the 5 f***ING MINUTES that we were gone, MARTIN f***ING JOHNSON came out of the bus. Out of the 4 f***ING HOURS we've been standing there, he picks those 5 f***ING MINUTES to walk by. *dies a little on the inside* LmaoLmao. But we get over it, (a little) when we see Zack come back, & we get some pictures with him. JD from Valencia, also walks by & I got a picture with him as well.

Then Alex Gaskarth comes out, and my f***ing camera decides to die on me. How it stopped working, I don't even know. The batteries were full, too. :| But we got a picture with him on their camera anyway. *ILOVEYOUGUYS* Then Alex goes inside after, because he says he's cold. So we just hang around a bit longer. I try turning on my camera again, and it finally decides to work. Smiling So Alex comes out again & we get pictures on my camera. *smiles* & Right before I take the myspace picture, he goes "oh what's on your hand?" & my mind blanked for a second. So I looked at him like "what!?:|" And then I was like "OH, ATLB." Duh, did you really need to ask? Hahah. But he smiles all cutely & he's like "hell yeah!" Then I finally take the picture. Then people were kinda just standing around talking to him. About anything & everything. I don't even remember what we were saying to him. Sad Then Jack walks off the bus and Alex screams "Hey look it's Jack from All Time Low!" & Jack laughs and goes back into the bus. LmaoLmao. But he comes out after & we get pictures. Smiling Then Alex leaves, probably because he was cold again. Oh & then she asked him to get a video saying "I love Sarah". So Jack does it. *ilovehim* LmaoLmao. "I love Sarah. Matt Damon!" Then Alessandra (BLGU, bby! PS. when you asked me if I was Sarah, I'm like YEAH. & I wanted to say Alessandra, but I didn't want to be wrong, hahah.) attacks Jack with silly string. LOLOL. And it gets on his jacket, & there was a rip or something. So (the other) Sarah apologizes & Jack's all like "Ok, I forgive you." Hahah.

& That's pretty much everything that happened before the show. So we go back in line & there are now like 20 people ahead of us. *f***! @ people thinking they can cut the line. mother f***ersss.* I mean, if they knew people at the front then it would've been semi-ok. But they didn't even know people & they got here like 3 hours after we did. f***! But at this point, I'm a little too happy to be angry. So after waiting for an hour & a half, drinking some nasty *red bulls.. WTF IS BEAVER BUZZ*, dealing with a f***ing PMSing security guard :|, we finally get in. We basically ran for the barricade, & completely skipped out on coat check. We ended up being right behind the people who cut in front of the line. But I was close up center, so I was satisfied. Jenn took all our coats & purses & went to the coat check, as we held her spot. Then Valencia's merch guy is selling CDs for 10 bucks & I was like "I'll buy one later, I don't have money right now but can I get a picture?" & he's like of course. So I get one, & I f***ed it up. So I had to go back to him & get another one.

After waiting an hour, Valencia comes on & plays their set. I knew all the songs, I just didn't have all my lyrics down, hahah. So I fail at that. Sad Not many people knew their songs at all, but I think a lot of them knew A Space Between. I've never seen Valencia live, but they were pretty good.

Then The Audition comes on & they played amazing. Rian took over drums for Dance Halls. & Vinny Vegas helped sing Don't Be So Hard, as he came into the crowd & I was holding onto his hand the whole time. Smiling After their set, Matt Flyzik was on stage helping set up & everything. So I yelled out "Matt Flyzik!" and he looked up. Smiling Hahah.

Then it's finally All Time Low. They play Crank Dat as they're coming on stage, hahah. & They started off with Dear Maria & then they played Coffeeshop. Alex likes leaving the stage, a lot. Lolol.
& After Let it roll..
Alex: Are you guys having fun!?
Crowd: Yeah! *screams*
Alex: Ok then my goal is accomplished. I can now kill myself.
Crowd: No!
Alex: I'm just kidding! I would never! I would never do that! Never ever! ..You guys are f***ing pretty.
Hahah. Then he gets everyone backstage to come on stage for a dance party. & he has to tell them like 5 f***ing times, haha.

"Come on stage! No I mean it. All of you! Get the f*** out here. COME ON!!!" LmaoLmao. "If any of these f***ers leave the stage or don't dance the entire time, I give all of you permission to kick each and every one of them in the balls after the show."

Then they play stay awake, with everyone on stage. By this time, people are shoving & pushing more than ever. f***ing intense. I had like five people pull my hair & I was sweating like f***ing crazy. But it was all worth it. & Then they play dammit, with everyone still on stage. Danny from The Audition sang most of it, I think. It was incredible, though. I have a video but the sound quality's s***. It's even worse compared to the other videos. Which hella sucks. But anyway. That's pretty much it for ATL. They were amazing though. <3

After waiting forever after ATL's set, it's finally Boys Like Girls. The lights & everything were so rad, before they came out. Just thought I'd mention that. But they started with Hero/Heroine. & The mosh pit is f***ing crazy by this time. & I'm dying for air, but I wasn't about to leave. During their set, Martin threw at least 5 waterbottles into the crowd, all of which I got in my hair. My hair was drenched with Martin's water. AMAZING. Lol, jokes. By this time Jenn, Emma & Deb leave the pit. So I'm there all alone. Sad So yeah. Then they started talking about the end of tourzilla. & They had TOURZILLA AWARDS to give out. WOO. I have most of this on video, so i'll post it soon. But the security guard's all like "you're not supposed to be taking videos" so there are like 5, 2 minute videos. But it's all good. Just off the top of my head..

They ended with The Great Escape, obviously. I got the mike for few seconds during the chorus as Martin was pointing it at different people. & he touched my hand! Lmao. HELLYES. But yeah, then it was over. & John threw like 50 drumsticks out. & I touched one before someone pushed me out of the way, motherf***ersss.

So I basically got out of the pit as fast as I could. I needed air. So I got my purse right away & went to buy my BLG merch. For the record, that BLG hoodie is officially my favourite hoodie, ever. I'm wearing it like everyday from now on, hahah. Anywhore. Then, I went to visit Vinny & i ended up getting the hoodie & the Jack Attack shirt, even though they were both larges since that's all he had left. ATL had no other merch left, which hella sucks. But I got over it. Then Brendan was going around selling CDs, so I bought one & I got a picture with him. Smiling Then I remembered I needed a pic with Vinny so I went to him & got one.<3 Then I went to find Deb, Jenn & Emma out in the lobby & I got a picture with Danny. Then Emma had to go. Sad So we said bye, and we went back to the tour busses.

We waited for awhile and got pictures with Tim. Then we were in a group of people & Matt Flyzik was there. I was about to get a picture with him but he was talking, so I turned around and saw Jack. So I asked him for another picture, just because I felt like it. Then I turned around and I couldn't find Matt. =O But I saw him & he started saying how he was gunna go to Subway but he'd be back in like 10 minutes. So I decided just to get a picture when he got back.

Then we wait around for a bit longer & Paul comes out. There are like 20 girls surrounding him, but we make our way over anyway. I got a picture & a hug. People were talking to him about Hedley & how they were amazing & he should listen to their music, hahah. He was like "oh i've heard of them." It was cool. Smiling Then I got him to sign my shirt with my sharpie. Then he had to sign Jenn's ticket & Deb's shirt. And eventually he was signing everything. He was about to hand it back to me, and some girl comes up "will you sign this" & he's like sure. So he's signing away with my sharpie & we see Martin come out. So I was like "ok, i'm coming back for my sharpie after, Poolie!" But I doubt he heard me. So we went to Martin and got pictures & he signed my shirt as well. I was all like "can I have a hug?" & he was like "of course" all nicely & he gives me this huge hug. *awwh, dies. i love him.* & as he was taking a picture with some other girl, he accidentally bumped into another girl. And he was all like "i'm so sorry sweetheart." Awwwh, Martin's so incredibly nice. <3

I'm not gunna lie, it was 11:30 & I had to go meet my mom. Especially since my cellphone was dead, so she wouldn't be able to reach me. :| So we walked back around the corner & I see my mom. & I'm like "Wait! I need my picture with Matt Flyzik." So I made my mom wait in the car while we walked towards Subway. We didn't go just for Matt, I needed a drink too, lol. But Matt's already walking out with Rian, I think. So I was like "Matt!" And he looks over and said hi. & I asked him if he heard me call his name on stage. And he smiles all cutely & he's like "yeah!" Which made me smile. & Then he's like "I didn't know it was you but I looked up!" & I was like I know. Smiling Then I got my picture. Actually I got like 3 pictures, because the first 2 weren't good enough, hahah. Then Matt had to leave. Sad

And that's pretty much it. Oh, motherf***er. I wrote like my f***ing life story in here.
