Holy shit! Another Corey concert, and my God it was amazing. We got to Saint Andrews around 6 which was not early enough for me but we got lucky
and saw some buddies from Clash in line so we hopped in line with them. We stood around and chatted for the duration of time before the doors opened and
watched all of the interesting folks of Detroit pass us by. When the doors finally opened at 7 we got in (they didn't even check my camera, coulda brought my good
camera damn it) we ran as close as the front as we could get, which was about 4 "rows" of people from the stage with hopes of creeping up to the front. Now for the terrible part....waiting for the show to start in a sea of sweaty obnoxious bodies...my worst nightmare. I stood with arms crossed and didn't speak. Corey, of course, took his sweet time
to get his ass on stage as usual. The show started about 5 min after 8. Yes finally. The good stuff. He started off talking and telling his crazy tales of how everyone in
the world hates him for calling them out on their shit and how he gets children swearing at him and telling him he SUCKS because he disses the "selfie stick" Another tale was how they were playing at Harpos and some giant linebacker of a woman managed to get on stage and proceed to grab his hair, force him to head bang and rape him at the same time lol. After more hilarious and bizarre stories he started a Q&A which is always fun to hear answers to interesting questions. Then it was time for the music oh yeaaa. Here was the setlist:

Holy shit. Corey covering Green Day??????? I believe I was the only one who was happy and knew the song. Most people grumbled when he was Green Day
was one of his all time favorite bands. Fuck you people. Its amazing, Corey is the only person who could get a room of hundreds of metal heads to jam to Prince, and Live. Everyone was screaming the songs back at him. They would never admit it but I WAS THERE AND I HEARD YOU ALL! I about fell on the floor when he started to play Taciturn<3 ahhh I dreamed of hearing that song live<3 it was amazing and just perfect. Snuff was heartbreaking as always, watching Corey struggle to get through it without bursting into tears. The whole show was so amazing and its fun to hear covers, it gives them new life coming from someone you love like I love Corey.

After the show was over, now came the fun part...the waiting game. We sat on the curb and were thrilled to just be able to sit down for a while. The staff started gating us in so we decided to cross the street and not have to be behind a gate with a bunch of nasty smokers suffocating us. During this wait we were approached by quite a few "homeless" people. Now I say that in quotations because this asshole was begging money while his iPhone 6 was shining in his back pocket. I'm not stupid and I'm not giving you my money when you clearly have more money than me. Another one came creeping up behind us and wanted money then asked to use our phones. He wouldn't go away so the staff told him to leave, he didn't so the smallest of the security staff dragged his ass down the street and made him leave. It was pretty awesome. We saw quite a few pimps drive by in old school Cadillac's in pristine condition. Then a giant crew of people on bicycles with lights on the tires rode passed. I mean hundreds of people in the streets on their bikes, it was funny. At this point it had been well over an hour or more. Eventually Corey came out and was signing autographs across the street where the people were gated in. I was so nervous he wouldn't get to us and go straight on the tour bus and we'd be screwed. It seemed like forever but he finally got over to us<3
I was actually able to speak this time so that was good haha. He signed my jacket right by Jericho and said he was glad to be signing by him cuz he is a very close personal friend of his. We got our pictures and I got my hug finally<3 It was the best.
