Hey guys, I am just home!! What an amazing night!!!! The first amazing thing was the fabulous lady working in the box office of SECC who changed our tickets from seating to standing because we told her we had come from Ireland etc. She was so nice and I am so grateful, I could have kissed her. We managed to get right up the front, slightly stage left to please all tastes Crowd went mental when the Kings came on and I nearly died so we moved back a bit, as a result I kinda missed Crawl and My Party cause i was trying to stay standing and not get squashed to death. Setlist was brill, Joes Head, happy happy!!! They were on top form, to be honest I spent most of the night staring at Matthew and got over 500 pics of him and a few of the rest And a vid (will post them all later). I thought that guy pissing on Ruth would ruin the nite for her but the trooper carried on and ended up beating a few girls up to get Nates drumstick. Heh, she didnt really but a few young wans got other sticks and they were like "whats the drummers name" etc No trani and arizona but the whole trip was so amazing I didnt want to dwell on it After such an amazing day and night none of us were giving up on meeting the boys and I badly wanted one pic with Matt. i swear one pic would make me happy forever more. After wandering around getting fobbed off by loads of people we eventually found where they were. Unfortunately we had to hang out on the other side of a really tall railing so there wasnt gonna be much chance of pics with the boys. We waited for about 2 hours and eventually they came out, Nate and Jessie first and I kinda missed him so moved to get his autograph but then Ruth & Montana were like "Claire, Claire, its Matt" so my heart skipped a number of beats and my legs started to buckle a little, I actually couldnt believe he was walking toward me and I was starstruck. I couldnt even speak, he was chatting away with his super sexy accent, he looked amazing. He took my ticket and signed it and handed it back and I was barely able to say thank you. Eventually Montana said "Matt, you have to talk to Claire" so he looked at me and nodded and smiled, i think he knew I was a bit nervous and he was so super cute and amazingly more gorgeous in real life....more amazingly sweet and beautiful in real life than I could ever have imagined and now I am even more obsessed, did anyone think that was possible??? Then Jared came over talking away like a mad thing so I said "Hey Jared, theres a rumour going around that U2 are opening up for you guys in Dublin, is there any truth???" He laughed and said he'd love them to but that was just about the stupidest thing he'd ever heard Montana told all the boys that we were seeing them in Dub, London, Belfast and NYC too (between us), she said "MSG" though and Jared was like "MSG in Dublin", heh heh, silly moo I completely missed Caleb coming out and someone asked where he was I made some smart comment about him shining his shoes and he was right in front of me.....oops. He was soooooooooooooo nice tho and so normal and funny. He signed the tiny piece of paper that the lovely security guard went to get after I had nothing for Jared to sign....noone else was signing that ticket. I love them all, they are amazing. I still must get a pic of Matt & I and I have no idea how I'm gonna go about it!!!! Brightlights we were talking to your friend Leigh, she was sooooo nice!! And Colette, thanks so much for letting me touch your pen It was so nice to meet you. I dont remember meeting Katie who has posted that amazing pic of Matt from through the rails, i couldnt even get it together in Matts presence to turn on my camera Eventually we all left but myself, Montana and Ruth tried to thumb a lift on the tourbus............it was very funny but needless to say they didnt stop, got a huge wave and smile from the driver though Oh and one of the roadies driving one of the big trucks was so nice, he stopped and handed a few drumsticks out the window to a few of the girls. Totally awesome night............pics on the way asap!! xxx Haha I was with Colette, you probably saw me with the Scotland flag wrapped around me lol. I knew I had to get a picture of Matt signing Colette's ticket, or else she would have probably killed me. I do have to agree, pictures do NOT do him justice. They don't do any of the justice really.

Well i'm still in glasgow, catching my flight homein about 3 hours. What a fucking night!! As snuchs said the most loveliest glasgow lady upgraded us from seated tickets to STANDING!! How cool is that!The gig was amazing although shorter than others, and calebs voice is sounding amazing. I'm not gonna write a long review as its all been said but i just wanna thank timgrw(ruth) and snuchs (claire) for coming and making it the best gig of my life. My friends that were supposed to come let me down at the last minute and the two girls stepped up to the challenge and decided to come instead. Even though none of us had ever met each other before and only know each other through HA we got on like a house on fire and i'm actually so glad my mate pulled out because i really dont think we would have got standing tickets or met the band if ruth and claire werent there. So thank you girls, i love ya both and roll on the next time xxx p.s. Wait till you guys see my close up pic of caleb followill after the show...O M FUCKING G!!! pps. love and respect to all the cool glasgow chicks who we met while waiting for the band..you guys made the wait a lot more fun

I'm lost in last night, so high, I dont wanna come down!!!!!!! Ever!!Lol it's cool I'm not too sure, think it's from SNL. I just can't stop talking bout last night full stop. I think this thread is gonna go on for a loooooong time lol. I meant to say in my review, Caleb is a completely different person offstage. Like last night he was strutting about, gesturing, pulling faces and at the end kicked the mic stand over! But after the show, you could tell he was really shy, and definetly humble and grateful. Ugh he just makes me want to give him a big hug and tell him how great he is!
