SUM 41 LIVE in Malaysia


Last night was the first time SUM 41 performed in Malaysia!
It was one of the best concerts we've ever been to.


By the time we arrived there was a long line waiting to enter the venue. Although it was raining fans were still lining up waiting patiently for the doors to be opened! 

The show was hosted by Ryan of Hitz.fm and Mootz of Popshuvit and eventually started at 8pm with performances by two local opening acts,

Bunkface


One Buck Short


They both played a couple of songs, ending at about 9 pm.
We then waited for about an hour for SUM 41 to appear.



They played most of their old songs but since this was their Screaming Bloody Murder Tour, they of course played tracks from their latest album.

Besides their own songs, they did Metal Mayhem, which was a combination of  Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden  and Metallica and they did a cover of Queen's, We Will Rock You.


The crowd was amazingggggggg, they were singing to every word of the song and jumping non stop.


The crowd was crazy! They were pushing and moshing till people couldn't even move.
Some guys even started crowd surfing! Security had to ask all photographers to leave as it was dangerous. Although the crowd surfers would eventually end up in the front and would be escorted away by security.

The crowd was pushing so hard that the barriers started to move. They were actually afraid it might actually collapse and started to tighten the screws.


Halfway through the show, Deryck ( The lead singer ) said he would pick 3 people to join them on stage.

Everyone started screaming for his attention and I WAS THE SECOND PERSON HE PICKED.

Wanted to die. 
 
Luckily I was already in front, although with the crowd pushing the guards had to carry me out!

I got to go up on stage and hug the members, and got to mosh on stage the entire show!
