TAKE THAT ARE ACE (but better as a four piece)
Lauren asked, so I’ve put it on here because Facebook won’t let me write it as my message is too long. Just ignore the first bit, that’s a reply to Lauren…
AMAZING :D I am back on the internet, I have so much fb to catch up on tho, and I can’t be bothered so I might just not bother.
Well, I thought the gates were at 4 but they were at 5, but they let us in at half 4 and I panicked but the queue wasn’t anywhere near as frightening an experience as last time…
So, THE PET SHOP BOYS WERE AMAZING, they did Love etc and Left to my own devices, Go West, West End Girls, Together (I didn’t really know this one but it was good) Suburbia, Se Avida E!! They were absolutely amazing and put on such a good show but I couldn’t get over just how shit the crowd were. They weren’t really singing or anything and weren’t clapping that much and were standing still and looking bored and I wanted to shoot people. On the plus, Neil Tennant pointed at me at one point, and I think that’s because I was really going for it and knew all the words and that. Chris Lowe had a LOVELY sparkly mirror jacket on :)
THEN SOMEONE HAD THE IDIOCY TO SAY THAT THE PET SHOP BOYS WERE RUBBISH. So I said really loudly that I was definitely going to go and see them next time they toured because they put on such an amazing show and that I really enjoyed it etcetc.
Yeah, so they were really good.
Then just before TT came on a group of REALLY annoying Robbie fans pushed in next to me and I wanted to kill them so badly. They just kept shouting for Robbie before TT came on stage. WHEN YOU ARE AT A TAKE THAT GIG YOU SHOUT FOR TAKE THAT NOT JUST FOR ONE MEMBER OF THE BAND THAT ISN’T REALLY IN THE BAND HE’S ONLY JUST BACK FOR ONE TOUR. Anyway, it was very exciting when they came on stage because they had a countdown (COUNTDOWN) from 2 mins and I couldn’t really cope and then only 4 of them came out and i was like THIS IS THE CONCERT THAT I WANTED, YES!!! And then they did a few ballads and it was lovely and then Robbie came on and I’d rather not talk about that, but he made me cry because he was like “I’ve lost a couple of people this week so think of people who have gone or who are sick, I’ll be thinking of them whilst I’m singing and I want you to as well”, so yeah I got upset. CHEAP SHOT ROBBIE, CHEAP SHOT.
Then they did some stuff all together and everything was fabulous and then there was a piano and jason on guitar and they did the old songs a bit AND THEN MARK OWEN SMILED AT ME. AT ME. Oh yeahhhhhh.
And during Pray Jason sang to me a bit.
And there was a mechanical man thing which was fabulous. I need to go again to see everything on the B stage properly because we were 4 rows from the main stage and so didn’t ahve the greatest view of the other stage but it was worth it because JASON SANG AND MARK SMILED AND NEIL POINTED. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Then joined a mile long queue (literally) to get the bus back into town and then we went to FAB for a drink and to use the loo and Mum was a hit with the men folk.
:Dxxxx
