'And if you know, how do you get up from a all time low?'

Me + Ashleigh

WOW. What an amazing day.


Just came back from London, HMV Forum where I met 'The Wanted' after an amazing 'Halloween' performance !


So it goes like this -


Friday night I checked my emails, as I did constantly all week to see if I had won the tickets. When the email popped up I ran down stairs in excitement and told my Mum. We organised it all, went down TK Maxx and got a red dress and some devil accessories as it was a special 'Halloween' performance.


 On #MAXMONDAY me and Ashleigh  took a train down to the forum. 300 people had queued over night to get wristbands for entry through HMV, Oxford street, and the Que was trailing all down the road outside the venue even at 2 hours until show time. But this was definitely not one to miss!


OMW! Its JAYNE!
Queuing didnt drag. After about 20mins, there was a massive scream. Me and Ashleigh ran up the que and Jayne had her flip camera. Everyone screamed when she went past so we stopped to get filmed, ran back down to 'The Parents' where she filmed some more. She stopped and said that she saw my twitpic from this morning and took a picture of me and Ashleigh on her iphone. WOW.


In the venue, everyone was preparing themselves for the entry of 'The Wanted'. Whenever a song stopped, everyones phones came out, followed by a huge sigh when the next tune played.


The lights dimmed out and everyone screamed ! Jayne came out on stage to say thank-yous followed by a MTV Representative who introduced.....


THE WANTED !


From left - Nathan, Jay, Max, Tom, Siva
The energy from the concert was amazing. Everyone was singing along to 'Lose My Mind' , 'Say It On The Radio', 'Behind Bars', and 'Heart Vacancy'. Some fans got pulled onto the stage for the best costume, I LOVED the ipods ! They were brilliant! Then everyone did 'The Time Warp' which I had been practicing at the weekend. AWESOME! They left the stage and many people moved ready for the signing. I knew It wasnt over because what about 'All Time Low' ?


I grabbed Ashleigh into a gap near the front, and the boys jumped out on to the stage! - 'AND IF YOU KNOW, HOW DO YOU GET UP FROM AN ALL TIME LOW!'


NATHAN!
The boys halloween costumes were great ! Alot of effort ! Nathan was a fly which was awesome and did his amazing fly impression! 'NEEEEEEEEEEEE!' Jay was a 'Avatar Navi', Siva was a Vampire, Max was 'The Joker' and threw his wig into the audience and Tom was  insane guy with a chainsaw with a afro wig! 


After the performance, we bought some 'The Wanted' merchandise and queued for the signing.  My Mum rang me saying she was standing opposite them waiting for us, I didn't believe her... It took 2 hours to see them but It was well worth it! When we got to them my Mum and Nicky were standing opposite them. FOR AN HOUR ! They even got to stay when they had their break. Nicky got a 'chat-up line' from Max, - The  Mums favourite ! He burped and she laughed so he said, 'Its got to come out'.


After their break they had to brush their teeth for the next lot of fans, Nathan had been eating 'Walkers' cheese and onion crisps  Nathans friends from GMD3 (Band on Youtube) were there to show their support.


I was dead opposite Siva, 'How are you doing? Nice outfit!' I went all speechless and shy and I could only do a small laugh and a smile. Jay said that he liked my costume too and that I had four horns which was 'cool' (small ones on my mask), they were curious about my album as it was a copy of the 'ComeRound' edition for the release parties, Jay was like 'Ha! Im fascinated by my own album !' He showed Tom, so I told them it was from 'Come Round' he said it was cool and passed it to Max who said I was a 'Little Devil' .
Signed Cd


On the end was Nathan. Yes I do fancy him - 'Team Sykes' of course! , he signed the CD and I asked him for a hug, 'Yeah sure' ....


I have officially met 'The Wanted' and saw them perform live !


WOW. What an amazing day.
