News:
Well as previously mentioned, we saw Panic! play at Brixton Academy last night.
A basic rundown of the night:
Got to Brixton slightly later than we would've liked, arriving at about 5.30, and there were about 200 people already queueing. The weather was glorious, we stood huddled under an umbrella, but the time passed quickly
We never managed to figure out the name of the first support band, though they had a song, and t shirt which featured the phrase "I say Marvin, you say Gaye", lol. They were surprisingly good, and although the place was still filling up at this point it seemed everyone enjoyed it.
I cannot say the same for The Sounds. I didn't like them before hand, and last night did nothing to change my opinion. After waiting a ridiculously long time for their stuff to get set up, they had a musical intro that seemd to last for ages. I don't like their music, and it sounded as though most of the crowd shared my opinion.
After they finally cleared off, it took about 3 seconds before everyone started chanting for Panic!, which thankfully didn't take too long.
I should point out here that we had fairly good places, we were towards the left, initially with a row of people in front of us. By the time Panic came on, we had been pushed forward so *please excuse upcoming random fangirly outburst* I WAS ON FRONT BARRIER!!
Emily was right behind me, so for most of the night, Ryan Ross was about 8 ft away.
I can't remember the entire song order, but they opened with Time to Dance.
They also played Smashing Pumpkins Tonight Tonight and Radiohead's Karma Police, neither of which I know, but it was a great oppurtunity to let everything sink in, it still feels surreal.
Water bottles and photos were tossed out, but unfortunatley none were in our direction. Brendon also jumped off the other side of the stage, and worked his way over, but, of course, he stopped about 3 ft away and climbed back onstage.
Oh yeah, that guy can dance
And Ryan was in Oliver Twist type clothes, which were quite cool ^^
I can't say too much abot the other two, Jon was on the opposite side of the stage so I could hardly see him, and either Brendon or Ryan were standing infront of Spencer. That guy is majorly underrated though, he did a -brilliant- job on those drums, and he had cool makeup- a moustach and beard, lol.
We both bought t shirts, which I'll also put some pics up of, as, obviously there are some photos from the concert to go up ^^, unfortunatley most of them are a bit blurry though.
The only other thing I can say anything bad about is that none of them came out afterwards, even though we waited until the security people told us to leave. Though we can only assume they had their reasons as they say they usually try to come out and see some people.
It was a -great- night, I cant wait til they come back again, I had a brilliant time, they put on such a good show.
I am incredibly happy that this was my first show, thank you to Panic!, it was an amazing night.
Hope some of you got through all of that.

Ok well I'm going to try not to add too much as Fia has covered most stuff.
We were, as Fia said, right at the front on the left. Fia was at the front barrier sooner than me I couldn't quite squeeze in till about 2/3 through. I also had to have my neck at the weirdest angle to see sometimes cause of other people/bouncers. But yeah increadibly close to Ryan and Brendon, paticularly when he almost came over but didn't.
Hopefully my pictures will come out nicely. There may be a few which are less blurry than Fia's as I used a (disposable) film camera rather than digital. But I've got no idea at the moment.
Panic used the set they've been using in America with their name in cool lights and the windmill etc. If you've seen pics from their concerts you'll know what I'm on about. I was really impressed by the ringmaster and dancing girls, they were good. For people who like to know they started with Time To Dance and ended with an encore where they played I Constantly Thank God For Esteban and to finish Build God, Then We'll Talk.
