Motion City Soundtrack delighted the fans with their first ever show in Manila last night.
I wanted to watch them live but I can't get a clear picture of my sched due to work so I only bought my ticket yesterday. It's a good thing that there are tickets left because it was such a hassle to come to the venue.
Before the show, I had dinner at Subway in The Block then strolled around for a while since I had 30 minutes of free time before the show. I went to Odyssey and I was surprised to see All Time Low's Put Up or Shut Up album that I've been wanting to have so I immediately bought it even if it was overpriced. It's a good thing that our salary was given last Friday so I could afford the purchase and especially the concert ticket.
I entered the venue a few minutes before 8 pm. It wasn't so jampacked but there were a decent amount of fans in the crowd. It had no separate sections so everyone can stay wherever they want. I sat on one of the chairs on the sides while waiting. I'm glad they have free WiFi in the venue so I could surf the net while waiting.
The opening act was a band called She's Only Sixteen and they started on time. They were actually pretty good and one of the best opening acts I've seen. Too bad the crowd was passive as expected. Their set didn't last long so MCS came out earlier than 9pm.
The crowd was really loud right from the start and the band loved it. They were good singing and performing live. I do not know the lyrics to all their songs by heart but I couldn't help to jam to every beat. They were a nice group of musicians and I'm sure the audience had a good night like I do. They played a lot of songs that the audience clearly loved including some of their hits like Her Words Destroyed My Planet,LGFUAD and True Romance.
The show wasn't too long as I would hope for but I still enjoyed it. They said we were one of the loudest crowd they have played for and I wouldn't be surprised to see them back soon.
