Good Charlotte in El Salvador (May 31st)

Ok, let's begin by saying that when I heard they were coming I said to myelf "YOU HAVE TO GO" and I did, and this is how it all began:

It was May 31st, 8:30 pm.. I had to go to pick up a friend that was going to the concert too, so I went to pick her up and when we arrived I had a lot of trouble looking for a parking space!!! When I finally found one, I turned my head and saw this HUGE line of people waiting to get inside the International Convention Center...it was FULL OF PEOPLE but when I say FULL it is like.. A LOT, lol it took us a little more than an hour to get inside de convention center, when we finally were inside (around 10:00 pm) it was so damn crowded, but that was a good thing tho' except for the fact that they had taken all of the seats and we had to be standing up for like another hour lol but it doesn't matter..it was worth it !!!! and then we finally found 2 seats so everything was ok.

At 10:30 there was a band playing a tribute to U2, at 11:15 there was a samba team and some girls were dancing .. and finally at 11:45 pm... GOOD CHARLOTTE!!!!!!
What I first heard was "Buenas Noches El Salvador!" which means "Good Night El Salvador" and when I heard those words OMG I felt chills up and down my spine!!! I wanted to jump out of my seat !!

They opened the show with "The River"... and it was just amazing!! the whole show was full with energy..it was AWESOME!! I had a BLAST !! Gosh I just can't describe how it was. In fact I cried when they played "Hold On", it is such a meaninful song to me!

More than 8,000 people were in the International Convention Center, everybody sang their lungs out the whole night, it was amazing!!! It was just incredible! I can't describe it, it was just! Arrgh!

After nearly 2 hours of playing their hits and some new songs from their new album, Benji and Joel performed an acoustic version of "WE BELIEVE", it was beautiful!! cuz it's a great song!! then, they promised to come back, and they said good-bye with their first hit 2002's LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND THE FAMOUS!

I just want to say THANK YOU to Benji, Joel, Billy, Deano and Paul for that amazing show they gave us, I have no words to describe what I felt !! The show was over at almost 2 am.. I was just ecstatic, I couldn't believe I saw them play!! I'll never forget that night because of you!!
We love you guys, and we hope to see you again soon!!

P.D: I will be posting soon pictures taken when they arrived to the National Airport =)
