^^ Montana hasnt got a ticket for Dub.............yet I forgot about the wind machine too!! When Nacho was setting up he was over near Matts guitar and tuning it and whatnot and there was a fan or something near him so when he was tuning the guitar the wind was just blowing his hair, it was the funniest thing I have ever seen... I have my suspicions that he was enjoying all the attention I think Nacho moved the fan then and later Matthew walked around to the amps behind him and got a surprise blow in the face and you could see the surprise on his face and then the "oh!! Thats so nice" so he stayed there for a little while and then ruffled his hair a little...................................HOTTTTTTTTT!!!!

Indeed we did in style! Me, drunk singing at Caleb and making insinuations about 'size,' Oh the classy Irish! You should have seen the three of us back at the hotel after the meeting! Hyper as a five year old with a bottle of coke! The pics shall entertain you! PS: Me and Montana had to drink double gins because the measures are sooo small in the UK Happy days! Read the 'size' and 'Falsom Prison Blues' story this morning and nearly choked on my cereal from laughing so much!! It literally sounds like you had the perfect night - can't wait for the pics!! I take it you'll all be this up for it come friday week?! Yup off to the Point (i refuse to call it the o2) on the 19th and then off to New York to see them in Madison Square Gardens. However I may check the map because Jared seems to thinks MSG is in Dublin I shouldn't laugh, he just got muddled up!

^^ Montana hasnt got a ticket for Dub.............yet ^^Ah thats shite! Wud it be worth buyin a seating ticket (still rediculously expensive I no!) and then just coming down to the area outside of the standing area, while someone comes out with 2 standing tickets and going in then like that! My cousin and I did that for the Strokes in 2006 but it was in the old Point so it might b a diff set up now!

In fairness to him, New York and Dublin - pretty much the same place give or take a building or two! You're so lucky gettin 2 see them in MSG - I'm in New York myself the week b4! We had it booked b4 they even announced the gig nd changing wasn't really an option my dad would consider! Off to Paris in Feb tho so it's all good!

When he was tuning Matt's guitar and everyone was shouting about the wind machine he kinda did a head move that looks like it came from a shampoo advert or something, it was like a wiggle from side to side lol!

That was soo funny and the cheeky grin on his face at the moment was priceless I know! He was LOVING the attention! And he was certainly getting a lot of it! Everytime he set foot on the stage, even during the concert, people went crazy for him!

oh thanks so so much for all the accounts. i actually felt nervous myself when i was reading how y'all felt when meeting them. i can't believe more people don't wait for them. but i guess two hours is a long time. gives me hope that when i hopefully get to see them again (prolly after their next album ) that there won't be many people with me waiting, and i'll have them all to myself.

You just have to stick in there. I was pretty positive that they would come over - their security guards knew we'd been waiting 2 hours in the freezing cold and rain, so I'm sure they would've told us if they weren't gonna sign anything. Otherwise it would've been cruel!

In fairness the security guard was a bit of a knob..not theirs but the guy from SECC itself, they kept trying to say they were gone etc After the 2 hour mark my feet were wet and numb, I was cold to the core and it was raining on us but *CHEESE ALERT* when I saw Matt I didnt even notice......................I know I'm harping on but I cant tell you how amazing it was for me!!! It didnt even hit me til this morning when I was walking to bus for airport and I was like "Jebus Claire, you actually met Cameron Matthew Followill, holy sh*t" and I cried
