Ever.
Warning; Could be UCAP spoilers!
Right now I’m in bed, with a feeling of being hungover, slight head ache and ringing in my ears from last night. After 40ish hours of queueing outside the Civic Hall what can you expect, but hey, it was so worth it.
Me and Ida came down to the Civic around half 9 monday morning, where we met up with Sarah, Bex and her two friends, Amanda and Rachel. I had to leave again around 10 tho, to go to uni, shooting Still Life in the Studio. I feel so bad for the people I was on groups with, cause I was like stressing so much, yelling at them to hurry and such, so I could be done before half 12, when McFly were suppose to come to the Civic. They did let me go first, doing mine, and once I was done, I ran out right away to get there in time. I made it, they hadn’t turned up yet. So I sat down, chillen with the others, and they told me that a reporter from the biggest local newspaper had interviewed them, and that even I was mentioned. Pretty cool. Turned out I didn’t have a reason to stress like I did, cause they finally turned up around 1. Good thing was, we were only a few fans, the 6 of us and a couple more. First Dougie came out of the bus, looking gorgeous, holding his skateboard, and with my favorite hairstyle. Just amazing. Then Harry came, and since he was the closest one at this point, he was the first one we got pics with. We also gave him the scrapbook from the Norwegian fans, and a melkesjokolade (milk chocolate) from Norway. He thought that was pretty cool, and we also got a picture of him holding it, for all you awesome mcfly fans back home in Norway.
We then moved over to him, the most gorgeous guy I’ve ever seen, Mr. Poynter himself, and boy oh my, he’s amazing. Standing next to him, I could not really believe that I was actually getting my picture of me and Dougie. My Dougie picture at last, so surreal. And he’s even smiling in it! No funny face, no mr serious, no it’s a happy face, a “gosh-i-love-her” face. Okay maybe that’s just wishful thinking…
Then Mr. Jones came out, looking all cool in his sunglasses, scrubby chin and also him, like the other two seemed to be in a very good mood. Got our pics taken with him as well, Ida finally got a Danny picture, the one she was missing, so all good.
Tom took his time coming out of the bus, but when he finally did, we got a picture with him as well. He was wearing his new sunglasses and a hat, which didn’t look at all bad in real life James, so that so! haha. He seemed pleased that I said I liked his hat 
They toddled off inside for some soundchecking and such. The fans were just hanging around outside, and even got to hang by one of the doors, which were open, to listen to them rehearse. I don’t know how many times they played Transylvania, but that was loads. Not that I mind listening to Dougie sing, not at all. Then we just had to sit wait for the time to go by. Some guy from the newspaper came over to us, got our pics from when we met them, and took our details, so we also ended up in the paper the next day. Me, Sarah and Ida then went home to get some stuff to survive the night a bit later, got a blow up mattress to sit on and our Disney robes and such, las thing we wanted was to freeze to death. Some more people came to set up camp, we were about 30 in the end, camping outside the Civic. Pretty much everyone, except Ida who were making friends with the security guys, were stood down by the bus when McFly were leaving to go back to the hotel in Birmingham that evening. While waiting for them, some other guys came from other bands came out, that were playing at the Civic that night, a band called The Days for example. Me and Sarah thought this one guy looked famous, so he had to be in a band, and got a pic with him. Tho we do not know who he is. Then McFly time. First Dougie came out, looking just as fit as when he walked in, holding his skateboard. I said hi to him, before Sarah and the rest on the other side got a hold of him, taking pics with him, and the rest when they came out. I wasn’t fussed tho, I got a picture earlier that day. Then I suddenly noticed Dougie was standing in front of me, back towards me having just taken a picture with someone, and was now not doing anything. So I ever so carefully pricked his shoulder, and he turned around, smiling, I died, and asked if it was okay that I got a picture with him. He said of course, and so i did, with my cellphone as I had no camera. First I moved it to fast after pressing the shutter, so it came out all erm, nothing. I told him and I got another one, he this time stood still, looking at me, waiting to see if it turned out ok, which it did.
I then walked to find Sarah, as we had to go if she were to catch her bus. When I did find her, we bumped into Tom, and heck, got a picture with him as well. That would be my fifth Tom picture! I must say we look like mates eh?
Long cold night now. Wasn’t as bad as the Milton Keynes signing tho, because that’s not possible. Didn’t sleep at all, because every time I was comfy enough to sleep, I started shaking real bad from being cold. Next day, early morning around 6-7ish me and Ida packed our stuff, and went home to get showered and changed for the concert. That hot shower was very much appreciated! When we walked back, the sun was up and warming, so it wasn’t bad queueing now really, even if we were less dressed. We really was blessed with good weather, thank God! Like that wasn’t enough, while sitting there in front of the Civic, that scary guy from HMV came and talked to one of the people working at the Civic, and I saw someone else were standing on the other side waiting for him. Yes, that’s right, that was Fit! Eeek, it’s only getting better and better right? So Fit walked across the road and came towards us, looking at the queue, talking to his work buddy and the guy the work buddy was talking to. I was drooling. Then they walked off to work. Wait wait wait, queue, queue, queue. Looooong day to put it like that. We talked a bit to Danny Hall or whatever his name is, from Son of Dork you know, he’s kinda cool.
Evening time, and gig time! So the campers had gotten a colored dot on their hands, and the awesome management at the Civic let us in before the rest. It was so cool standing by the barrier, seeing the others still standing outside. Me and Ida stood in front of Dougie, a bit towards Danny, perfect placement I’d say. The support act, Alex Roots, were pretty good actually. I like it, check her out. Then once the light went off before McFly came on, people started pressing like crazy. But no way if anyone were to press me out of my place, I was staying put. They all looked absolutely amazing, and they had never been better I swear.
To decide what’s their favorite city, they have a contest this tour, ordering pizza from stage, to see how long it takes. Fastest pizza delivery = best city. Dougie did a great job ordering it, tho it couldn’t be easy to hear, as the crowd weren’t exactly quiet.
While playing Transylvania, Dougie and Tom swapped instruments, so now we understand why the rehearsed that song so many times. It was totally epic.
Took them a few songs to get the pizza, then they said they would let two fans up on stage, eating pizza and watching them play a few songs. People went mental I swear, Danny chose one of the girls we’d been camping with, Jess and then Dougie was gonna choose the other one. He looked around, before pointing straight at me, saying the girl in the pink top. I was in proper shock. Then a security dude came and lifted me out, and I got onstage, Danny asking me for my name, I told him twice, he still couldn’t really say it lol. So me and Jess was sitting on a sofa behind Tom, next to Harry’s drum kit, and himself of course, eating pizza and watching them sing.
It’s all quite a blur tho, I can’t really remember what songs they played while being up there. Tom asked us how the pizza was, it was really good. Tom even walked over to us a few times, saying we had to eat more. On one song he also came over and was standing in front of us, playing. God he was fit, I wasn’t sure where to look, so I ended up staring at his face, him all in concentration. Dougie walked over once as well, looked at us, before pouring his water over the pizza, making both of us wet, tho it’s Dougie Poynter, he’s allowed. Then Harry told me we should eat more, but nah, the watered pizza stayed untouched from now.
After 3-4 songs and Harry’s talk, Danny came and took our hands, leading us off the stage and back, while doing so being awfully handsome, and the security guys showed us back to the hall, to watch them perform the last three songs of the set.
Think maybe this was the best gig I’ve been to. Just maybe..
Ps. the pictures from when we met them during the day, it’s not the originals, so quality not the best. Still haven’t had them sent to me from Sarah.
A dress
A belt that goes with the dress
Checkered shirts have been in fashion for quite some time now, but it doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon. I absolutely love the skirt, and the shoes are really practical, cause they go with pretty much everything. You can wear them with jeans, out shopping or with a nice dress at a summer wedding. Shoe fashion this summer are high heels, these should get those guys checking you out.
