当我第一次在博上贴出the soundtrack of your summer巡演的消息的时候，我就已经知道，7/19，他们在洛城。
只是，一切都没有定数。那天对着电脑我哭了。我甚至不敢跟任何人讲这件事情，我不相信自己能够去。
护照，签证，接待家庭，活动安排……
我焦急地等着这些消息，唯恐住的地方离LA太远，接待家庭不喜欢音乐，7/19晚上NOD有安排……
7/10， 带上所有的GC lyric books, 我搭上飞机。开始祈祷这一切。
飞机上很难熬，再睡睡醒醒间把GC的四张砖给听了一遍
走出LA的机场，我只是在想，嘿嘿 madden家的爷们儿都住这儿。
直到我拿到票之前的一分钟，我都不知道是否能够看这场live.
据演唱会一个星期前，我跟host family说了这件事，当时他们一口就答应了。然后那晚上我兴奋得没睡着。
直到7/18晚上，接待家庭的妈妈跟我说那天她有工作，大女儿要打工，小女儿第二天要去野营。只有Tia Para能带我去LA,因为她要去参加一个家庭聚会。能够陪我去的只有她（Tia Para）的15岁儿子。但是NOD规定，不准再没有成年人陪伴下出行。
我说，哦，那算了。
接着我闷了一个晚上。
直到十一点，我决定不能放弃。开始打电话回家问父母的意见。
他们同意了。
第二天一早，我找了那边的家长，很慎重地谈了这件事。他们的小女儿帮我总结出几条理由:
1. GC means a lot to me.
2. I’ve got a cell phone.
3. I’ve watched several rock shows. I know how to protect myself.
4. The boy is very responsible
5. My parents agree.
于是早上九点我就搭着Tia Para的车到了LA.
下午三点，到达The Wiltern
门口早已排起了长队，绕了三个街区…
我以为排队买票的，屁颠屁颠找到队伍的末端，排了上去。
二十分钟后，我惊恐的发现前后左右的人们都有票。
于是男孩去box office问，票早就在网上卖光了（那还是五月份哪…）
看着形形色色穿着DCMA,GC merch的人们，我再次郁闷了。我有的，只是四本小歌词本，一根小手链，一个小护腕，一个装满他们照片的IPOD.
四个小时后。
“演出前一个小时joel和benji带着女朋友们开车到达 我看着他们的背影想，完了，这就是最后一面了...随后工作人员告诉我他们可能会出来停车，说不定能帮上忙,然后果真他们巡演经理就开他们的车出来了！ 多亏几年的官网和dcma的网站 居然就把他给认出来了...帮他说了我的情况后 我说只要有票，我可以花双倍的价钱买 然后他就从我本子里撕了张纸 问了我名字 关了车门就说：don't worry, you are on the GUEST LIST...”
我在十米之内看到了他们。
我看清了他们。
我无心留意开场的the maine和metro station.
我只是在等我的GC.
终于，the wiltern的灯第三次暗了下来。
‘it’s a new day, but it’s all feels old
It’s a good life, that’s what I’m told
But everything it all just feels the same…’
我无法准确描述出那是我的心情，他们的动作。
只是，自己突然就很平静。然后，在人群的推搡中微笑着跟着唱。
这是GC的live.
我告诉自己
这是我的梦。
The Anthem
The river
Girls and boys
My bloody valentine
The young and the hopeless
Where would we be now (version 1)-benji sang at first,but he forgot some lyrics...XD
Little things
Dance floor anthem
I just wanna live
Hold on
Lifestyle of the rich and the famous
他们，就如同我在youtube在DVD上看了无数次的那个GC
在dancefloor anthem和the river的奇怪变调
在little things里故意把那些you still suck的话留给我们
joel永远的put up your hands and scream!!!
Benji的大款式秀吉它,忘词。还有madden家族特色冷场二人转。
Billy弹键盘时把吉他背成葫芦状
Paul永远在转圈
Deano永远在后面。
以及，他们答应过的每场秀对歌迷的感谢
是的，you’re gone里唱的都是真的。
你们感谢每一个喜欢你们专辑的kid,无论是用什么方法。
是的，我是。
你们感谢每一个为GC改变的kid,哪怕只是一句口头禅
是的，我是。
你们感谢每一个看过你们show的kid
是的，从那天开始，我是。
Benji说你们有些的脸好眼熟，有些是新面孔，让我们一起对新面孔们说，Welcome to GC family!!!
是的，我也融入了这个family之中。
或者，早就是其中之一了。
当听到the young and hopeless 的时候，我闭上了眼睛。
想到了很多人的面孔。
有些会在听着the anthem的时候晃脑袋，有些会摇着我的身体说benji才是最好看的，有些会被我逼着去听GC的歌，有些拿着good morning revival的歌词本，小心翼翼的帮我合上，有些the predictable的单曲上写上Happy B-day, 有些被我硬塞着joel的照片说joel最棒，有些不厌其烦的听我说关于GC的各种八卦……
两年半了。
05.11 你们在MTV西游记出现，the chronicles of life and death
05.12.31 连续几个星期看到chronicles, 开始对你们感兴趣，同时了解了什么叫pop punk
从2006年的3月11日开始。
那个日子，我听着烂熟的the young and the hopeless, 突然一下，就感觉到了一切。
我知道，你们将会改变我的生活。
放弃了以前最喜欢的乐队，开始把歌词打印出来，在学校里看。
那天是你们的生日。
当年4月叫去美国的同学带the young and the hopeless 和the chronicles of life and death，于是变成了穷光蛋。
07.2 在livejournal上给joel留言，他回了。
那天我快昏掉了，这给初三的我带来了无穷动力
于是慌忙的准备起为即将到来的他们的生日的字和照片。
但是，从那个三月的第一天直到现在，livejournal被中国封掉了。
前几个礼拜，当我再一次在host family的家里上的时候，joel把账号删了。
Benji也在和sophie分手后 写了告别文 再也没登陆过。
也就是这样，仍然给benji发了message, 也在官网留了言，可是我的感谢，你们会收到么？
07.7.19 Mc.Addicted watched GC’s show in LA.
你们总是让我觉得做一个GC kid很自豪。
You’re gone
Good Charlotte
You were young, you were bright, you were beautiful
You were everything anyone could want from a child
You were not suppose to leave this world that way
You were not suppose to leave this world that day You would scribble down the lyrics of your favorite song
On your notebook in school when your days were long
You were everything anyone could want from a child
You were not suppose to leave this world that way
You were not suppose to leave this world that day You would scribble down the lyrics of your favorite song
On your notebook in school when your days were long
你们知道，我也是这样，一直这样
And it meant so much for me to know
That you meant so much you'll never know
And it meant so much for me to know
That you meant so much you'll never know
你们对我意味着更多，你们不知道，你们不知道
You're gone
And we all miss you
Listen to these songs
You're alive in every one
You're gone
And we all miss you
Listen to these songs
You're alive in every one
你们也不曾失去光彩过
Are you smiling down?
Are you still singing?
Were you with us all along?
Do you like what we've become?
两年半，我依旧站在这里。我依旧听着你们的歌上学，甚至学着吉他弹着你们的歌。
Are you smiling down?
Are you still singing?
Were you with us all along?
Do you like what we've become?
两年半，我依旧站在这里。我依旧听着你们的歌上学，甚至学着吉他弹着你们的歌。
可是，你们也变了。你们有自己的世界。有些我不理解，但我知道对于GC family你们永远不会变。
Did i meet you in the crowd at one of our shows?
Did i see you in the faces that all come and go?
Did i ever take the time, to just say thanks?
Was i too caught up in my life, to ask you your name?
Did i meet you in the crowd at one of our shows?
Did i see you in the faces that all come and go?
Did i ever take the time, to just say thanks?
Was i too caught up in my life, to ask you your name?
是的是的是的。这些都是真的
The truth about this life is that we're all in it together
Thats what you said to me in all your pictures and your letters
Somehow i believe, that you have made me better
In my heart i know, you're gonna live forever
这些话，都是我想说的。
You're gone
And we all miss you
Listen to these songs
You're alive in every one
Are you smiling down?
Are you still singing?
Were you with us all along?
Do you like what we've become?
Are you smiling down?
Are you still singing?
Everyday that passes by
We celebrate your life
Can you hear us now?
But you we're singing
Every song thats in our lives
I know we'll never be apart
Yes, we’ll never be apart.
你们总是让我觉得做一个GC kid很自豪。
好振奋人心的感觉啊.
