You all know my review but like so many other things, it got lost yesterday, but I dont want to forget about it so I decided to post it again 
Serj @ the Docks in Hamburg, Germany, August 25th
I can say it right away: it was one of the best nights in my whole life
Brad, his roommate Arva and I got there very early, at about half to five. There were some fans waiting outside but we went straight to the back entrance, packed with presetns for Serj and the FCC. There we met Erwin. He was very kind (thank you so much, Lin  ), and when we said we had presents for Serj, he said “ah he is for a walk now ut he will be back soon, we can wait togetehr”. We also said we had presents for him and the other FCC guys and he was as happy as a little kid and said “Iwant mine, I want mine! “  When Serj suddenly came walking towards us, I felt like dying. In a good way he smiled at us and Brad said “hey Serj” and Serj said “hey guys, how are you doing?” we shook hands and told him about the presetns. He looked like this O.O. “For me? My birthday is not so important, you didnt have to do that” and i said “yeah I know but we wanted to” we gave it to him and he was soo happy and surprised  we talked a little until he said “hey, lets take a pic togetther, okay”? (lol he asked us). I tried to get my camera out but my hands were shaking and he asked me” hey are you nervous?” and I said “yeah, believe me, Im fucking nervous” and he smiled and said “aw theres no need for that” when I had the camera, he gave it to someone ( I cant remember who) and pulled me close. I was like O.o and thought I would pass out right away. Which I did not. He thanked us dozens of times and said we might meet later again and then had to go.
We ewnt to the main entrance and all those who noticed that we talked about Serj and meeting him were like “OMG OMG you met him? How did you do that?” and we said “he was walking there and we said hi” it took ages until we got in the venue and the support band started at nine. InMe were really good as a support (thx Dave and the others).
After them we had to wait until ten before Serj and the FCC came out. The crowd went insane, Brad and I were right in the pit (fifth or sixth row, yay) and I got bruises all over. Stil they were not aggressive, just having fun (in a brutal way, lol). The show was awesome I cant remember the setlist, Im sorry, but they did each song from ETD plus Charades (which nobody seems to know, hahaha) and Girl and Sounds of War. And the new version of Money, together with the ABBA song, it was awesome I tried to take pics but it was impossible in the crowd. Serj was very full of energy and kept saying that the crowd was wonderful and that they had a good time. I had a great time, too
After the show I bought a t-shirt and then we left and went to the back entrance again. This time there were loads of fans, mostly very young people. The security started bitching, like “yeah you can all line up and get an autograph and then leave”, and i heard them say that they wanted to keep Serj from getting too close to the fans. We really didnt want to join in that, so we hung out with Erwin a little more and then decided to leave, I mean, we had met Serj without any security or whatever before, so WTF? We hugged Erwin and promised to be back next time they are in Germany
Then we found out that there were no busses, nothing anymore at night so we walked to the station, which took us like one anf ahalf hour, Iw as already half dead before. We met another girl and hung out with her at the station. Out train left at nine in the morning, lol. I couldnt sleep for one single second because i was too happy. And still am. Although its already almost three weeks ago |

Ooh the pics, forgot about them  yeah sure, thanks for reminding me
Too bad I cant re-live the concert again, now that we lost 42 days
Hmm true, but I think it would be too silly to make a new thread for him three weeks after his b-day.. but wait.. it was the one I opened, right? awww  |
