AN OPEN LETTER TO THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS.
Most people would think it’s easy to talk about a band. Most people would try to make their best to impress instead of being honest with what they feel. Not me. I’m not here to impress anyone or to make them think I’m cute or adorable for saying cute things. No. Today I’m here to talk about the most amazing band I’ve ever seen, Thirty Seconds To Mars.
On this day, 4 years ago, I was standing in line to see their 1st performance in Brazil. I was so excited, I didn’t really know what to expect but something told me that that would be a night I would never forget. And it was after that night, because of that night that I finally realized that I was part of something so much bigger than me, a family, a group of people devoted and passionate about the same four - now three - people I found myself in love with, Shannon Leto, Tomo Milicevic and Jared Leto.
It was because of Jay, Shann, Tomo and their music that I found my inner strenght, my strenght to fight and attack everything (and everyone) that ever held me back, keeping me from following my dreams and achieving everything I’ve ever wanted to achieve.
After 2007, I saw the guys once again on March 27th of this very year. I got to meet Jared and prove myself I was right all along. These three boys are worth everything good there is in the world, not only for being so fucking talented but for being kind and giving, for being funny and sweet, and for “loving the Echelon more than their own lives.” (Jared’s own quote.)
I cannot imagine a day, one moment without 30 Seconds To Mars. I love them with everything I got. It’s bigger than anything else I’ve ever felt and I guess I can say that on behalf of every single member of this dysfunctional family that is the Echelon:
Thank you guys for everything you’ve ever given us, for every song, every laugh, every word of support, every show, every hug, every kiss, every advice, every lesson, every quote and all the love.
I love you, we love you, more than anything in the world. And we thank you just the same. Well… probably even more.
I love you forever even though forever isn’t long enough.
-A
