Let me flashback a bit. Yesterday was a hectic day: I have two papers to work on that are due this week, which I totally procrastinated on because Marina. (Legit, not my problem my professors scheduled stuff on the same day Marina came to LA). I had to wake my ass up early as fuck (9am is totally early, idec) and get over to my campus library to check out last-minute materials for my research paper and had to wait for like an extra twenty minutes because all the computers were down- not fucking cute. After which, I found all the books I needed and went to The Loving Hut with a few friends.
This it was suddenly 2:30pm and I was in Alhambra and I was supposed to be in line for the concert at 4, max. I also stopped by two CVS looking for shiny stars since I was SUPPOSED to be Glittering Gabriel, and I ended up finding them during a last-ditch trip to the 99 Cent store. (I didn't even get to wear them, smh).
I finally got there at 6:30 after getting home and getting ready. After which I proceeded to get molested in line. People were pushing and had I not been mellow, people were going to get snatched.
After about thirty to forty minutes of that, I finally got inside and it was like a religious experience. (Of course, I'm an atheist and I never had any whilst Catholic other than boredom, so my experience with those is kind of iffy).
I saw Charlie XCX, and that was cute.
BUT, when Marina came out HOLYFUCKINGSHIT! I lost it. All of it. I went crazy. All the crazy, all over the place, everywhere. She came out, with the beginning of "Homewrecker" which has the best intro from almost all of Electra Heart, and omg.
She continued with "Bubblegum Bitch" and then I went crazy. But then, after a few more songs (including Starring Role, I believe? It's kind of fuzzy, tbh) she perfomed "The State of Dreaming."
You seriously do not know how important that was to me. I know all of the lyrics to that song, people. My life is a fucking play, you don't even know. MY LIFE IS A PLAY. Needless to say, I completely lost my shit. I was screaming the lyrics and I may or may not have kicked someone. Whatever. If they didn't want to be kicked, they shouldn't have been near my foot.
MY LIFE IS A PLAY!
I believe this was during "Homewrecker."
SHAMPAIN WAS MY FUCKING SONG! I KEPT SCREAMING "GLITTERING GABRIEL" AND I LEGiT SANG THE WHOLE FUCKING SONG. YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW! (And I got so mad when my friend told me someone asked what song this was when Marina sang it. Like, can they go shine bright like a rhinestone at a Nicki concert? Awesome, bye.)
During Mowgli's Road? It wasn't Shampain, 'cause I recorded all of that.
And then.
And THEN.
AND THEN.
Primadonna happened.
I'm not even ashamed. I lost my shit, harder than with any other song. I lost it all over the place. I lost it, twice. Thrice. Maybe even four times by the time she was done. I twerked and danced and jumped and yelled my little heart out. I went fucking crazy.
I also recorded it and was going to post it, but my smart phone is being stupid, so I couldn't. :(
This was definitely during "Bubblegum Bitch." She put on that sash during the performance.
You know what? I don't even remember. Just enjoy the picture. :)
The encore, however, was fucking awesome. She did "Teen Idle," which is one of my favorites. And then, she did "How to be a Heartbreaker" which was fucking amazing, even thought it's not one of my favorites, especially since Glee ruined it. There was confetti and I jumped and possibly elbowed someone in the face. Whatever. Same rule applies.
So, even though I was dehydrated as fuck, hate the security there and will placing voodoo curses on them, hated all the little fake-ass rhinestones, and my feet still hurt and I am waaaayyyy behind deadline, I regret nothing. Marina was fucking amazing.
