I met the first BVB fan in there and I was so excited. We talked a little in there on the way to Brixton and I was glad we did because I had no idea where the academy in there was and he did. :D At first we thought we are the first ones there but then we saw the line on the side of the building. It wasn't long, thank God. We waited there 10-11 hours, my internet friend Eve joined us at some point and the people in the line were so awesome, I made some new friends there! Long story and quite boring to read story short: we talked a lot about things, had a few sing alongs, got food from subway and grocery stores, I wrote "Turka Mayne" to the back of our birthday sign which made everyone laugh and rap it, stalked on bands at the backdoors and we saw Attila or Fearless Vampire Killers there.
Me and Eve took our stuff to my aunts friends house just before the doors opened and thanked him many many times for watching over them. The doors opened ten minutes early. I was texting to my friend when Eve told me we have to move on and I seriosly got a heart attack. Doors? Early? That never happens in Finland! They're more likely to be late there than early! Got through the ticket check and I ran for my life and we ended up to center of the 3rd row. The first band was Drama Club and it was so awesome! I liked it a lot. They played techno versions of songs from Bring me the horizon, Of mice and men and they also played a songs from Andy Black (that made eveyone scream) and Mindless self indulgence. The next band was fearless vampire killers and they were pretty okayish but not that speacial so that I could remember their songs from there. :D Then came Attila and a hell broke lose. I love the band but I couldn't really focus on the show or anything when I had to just concentrate on staying up and not falling because everyone was pushing from every direction. And I found the reason when I looked back: they had started a pretty huge pit just couple rows back. I just gave up on pushing back, I knew it was no use.
The pushing didn't stop when Attila stopped playing. I would have shouted "CALM THE FUCK DOWN" if the people wouldn't been so loud it would have just drowned in the noise.
Anyway, Black Veil Brides was awesome as always. They played a couple new songs and I got hear coffin too for the first time live. I was a bit dissapointed they didn't play more of the old songs and I also thought they would play songs from sex and hollywood because thats really their first EP but I am otherwise happy of the songs they decided to play. :)

After the show I met Eve again, she decided to leave from the front when all the pushing was too much for her, Eve got her stuff from the cloackroom, I got a t-shirt and we left to get our bags back. Told a lot about the show to my aunts friend, we were both still so excited and I was so thankful for the water I got, I was so thirsty because i sang so much and loud and it was so hot in the show. Something to drink is the best thing after a concert! We thanked him again and left back to the venue in hopes of meeting the band.
All the wait was worth it, we met them all. First came Jinxx, Jake and CC and Ashley came minute or two after them. It wasn't too hard to quess who is the fourth one coming out when all the girls started coming up and fans started screaming. :D I was like "oooh, wild quess.. it's ashley!... TADAA I was right!" I got signatures from everyone except Ashley, tho I managed to give him the necklace and he smiled and thanked me. Now, after that I've come to regret a little of my kindness and ask myself why didn't I ask a hug or anything then. I got birthday hug from Jinxx and CC, picture with CC and birthday fistbump from Jake. Because we thought Andy has already left the building (notice the Elvis reference here), we were about to leave when we heard a scream from the fans, turned around and saw him there. We went back to the line and I got his signature and I gave him the necklaces. I said to him theres two necklaces and that the other one is for Juliet (and he thanked me) because it pisses me off a lot that so many fans hate her for really no reason at all. He replied in this spot that they don't really care about the hate comments because the people don't necessarily (i've noticed he uses that word a lot) understand about things. I continued and said that anyway, I wanna give those necklaces because I love to see him happy because it makes me happy too. He gave me probably the biggest and cutest smile ever and thanked me again. And then later he wished me a happy birthday. :) He stayed the longest in there, making sure everyone got a signature before he left and posed for pictures, it was really sweet of him. :)

| CRAZY FACES!! |
After that we, with my friend, went to McDonalds because I have been graving for a milkshake the entire day, and just to hang in there for a moment and try to use the wifi there. We weren't there for long because we were both tired. Somehow I managed to get to a buss to Victoria Station but I got some idiot idea to leave a stop or two after the station because I was going to Pimlico and when the buss said next stop is Pimlico station, i decided to leave the buss. VERY BAD IDEA. Now comes the part I didn't tell my mum in it whole horribleness. I thought i knew where the station was and after a couple minutes of searching the underground sign, I realized I have no idea where it is. Then, because I knew for a fact where the Victoria station is located, i walked there,asked someone on the way wheres the station that i was looking for, but when they didn't know, i continued to walk on. Then in Victoria I didn't know where the hell my buss leaves because there is like million of those buss stops and the contruction site just makes it even more confusing. I walked in there looking for my buss stop probably like and hour, asked from some hotel where the hell the buss stop is but even tho they explained where it is, i didn't find it, I felt like they were playing a joke on me. Then I also noticed just how deserted the place was in the night and I realized someones following me and he started cat calling me. I pretended not to hear him and I was in the edge of tears because I was kinda lost even tho I knew exactly where I was and I was a bit terrified of that man. But then, like a prince with a white horse, my buss appeared, it was even going to the right direction and I ran to it and I was saved. At least I learned I'll never leave the buss 'til I am at my destination or that I am 13256235 % sure where the place is that I need to go. And you guys don't even know how much I wish the underground would work at night!!
Two hours after leaving the McDonalds I was finally in my hostel, securely in my bed and trying to sleep.
