Totally bored with day to day life I decided to take a trip, and oh what a trip it was. After two flights and long taxi ride I arrived at my hotel a day before the gig. I crawled into bed and sink into a deep slumber. The next day I opened my eyes forgetting for a second, just a second where I am and what is to happen, only a few hours later, then all at once it hits me. I won’t bore you with what I did that afternoon; I’ll skip right to waiting for them to start. The lights go down and people begin to scream, the anticipation is at a climax. I see their faces, its weird, a strange familiarity like a friend you’ve never meet. The music blasts through the speakers and I lose myself, each song means something to me, each song tells a story about my live and his voice is my thoughts. I leave my spot and walk around the venue, I want to look at the others fans, we’re all so different yet so similar, all here to lose ourselves for a couple of hours. I sit at the bar and sip on a drink, I can see the stage and the music is still deafening, my ears buzz and my hips shake. A guy comes over and asks why I am alone. I tell him I am not alone, I am surrounded by friends; he laughs and thinks I must be high. ‘Wanna come to the after party?’ He asks in a rough American accent and I nod and get us another drink. We arrive at the party, I still don’t really know who he is but he has kind eyes and I trust him. He asks which followill I fancy. I laugh and change the subject, I know what he thinks. An hour drifts away, the bar fills up and they finally the Kings arrive. I slip into the loo and take a look in the mirror my black eyeliner is smudge and my hair is a mess. I stumble out of the toilet and straight into Calebs arms, my heart stops for a second and I say excuse me, I can’t look him in the eye, he has always been an illusion and I am terrified when I finally come face to face with him, so I walk on. I return to my place at the bar but I’ve lost my friend with the rough American accent. I order another drink and light up a cig. There is a tap on my shoulder and its him again; Caleb is smiling at me and looks so beautiful close up that I wish I had fixed my hair when I had the chance. He asks me my name; the next few hours are a haze of smoke, vodka, beer, shots, laughing, dancing and desire. The bar closes and he asks me to leave with him. Do I want to be just another girl on the road? No but he is standing right there, saying the right things and I want that moment to last forever and i lose myself.

Honestly the gigs to me seem all the same, them playing a great show, but what's new. I think interacting with them is much more fascinating personally.
I liked it (the story), a sense of a conflict with reality interjected into the voice. I would re edit it though and space it out with paragraphs, its a little hard to read all smooshed together.
On another note- did you really turn down going on the road with caleb? Whats the deal here women, and if so what were you thinking??? Actually if you were to say to him you didnt want to just be another girl on the road, he would have been all over you. Oh well.
You left us hanging and not in a good way X(

Oh well. i assumed that by "do i wanna be another girl on the road?" that she mean another girl that they hooked up with.. maybe i have read it wrong. but yeah i agree with andy i think hearing about their aftershows is cool. you get a better sense of them. like katietill's story and caleb being vain. but it isnt really any of our business who they hook up with, and it aint really fair on the guys telling other people. have i got this whole story wrong?

I meant in general hearing stories with people meeting them. I mean how many stories can you tell of them playing theyre same ol' songs.
