HOLY MOTHER OF GOD IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!
i went to the Orange freevolution gig yesterday, Imagination stage, Baltic square. what a day!!!
First band to play were 'the Colour'. the lead singer kept reaching into the crowd so i touched him so if they get famous i can say 'i touched the lead singer of the Colour' :P After they had been on some random girl burned me with her cigarette by accident, not good! next thing i know a crown surfer kicked me in the head! After a few other bands FIGHSTAR! where on, wooo! i was right at the front too! only about 4 ftaway from Charlie! :o :D they got hundreds of bottles thrown at them but i thought they were pretty good! After Fighstar i decided i was hungry and got something to drink, only to see Ross from THE FUTUREHEADS (if you haven't heard of them shame on you, hey are a band from the area i live and are massive here!) walk past me! it was amazing! i 'wooed' and he turned around, said hi, waved and smiled! Then i saw The drummer and i 'wooed' at him too, he said hi and waved, thats 2 down, 2 to go! I was sitting, eating my icecream when the bassit walked past! Barry and the Drummer weren't at the gig yet so i waited for them so i could say hi to them too! In the meantime the Lead singer of 'the Colours' walked past and said hi. that was pretty cool. Me and my sister fround a spot where if you sat on a high wall you where directly above backstage! right infront of us was the portaloo for the bands. Thats when the last two members of the futureheads arrived. When Barry went to use the portaloo i 'wooed' at him and he turned around, said hi and stuck him thumbs up! Only the Drummer left now! About 10 mins later who went to the toilet...the Drummer! (aww, he so cute! ^^) so we said hi to him aswell, then Ross went over to him and said 'hi again' to me! YYYEYYY!
After that i didn't see the Futureheads again untill they were on stage. Anywho, i decided to stay sitting on the wall. During 'The Others' performance about 50 crowdsurfers went past after being dragged out of the crowd by the guards. One Guy ran past only to notice he was only wearing one shoe. He shouted 'Do you know where my shoe is?' to me but i was like 'No Sorry' so he ran up to where i waslike 'i've lost my shoe!' all of a sudden his shoe came flying out of no where! After that 3 guys walked past with a 'Free Hugs sign' so i got some free hugs ^^
Next i saw the lead singe rof 'The Colour' again. He went to use the portaloo but someone was already in and he opened the door on them >.< haha, i laughed at him and he laughed back, woo! Then he started to fondle with a random plant and asked me why it was there and i was like 'i dunno!' after he had done his business he waved and said bye to me >.<
Then, who came running back, none other than the lost shoe crowd surfer, this time with both his shoes! He was all screaming and stuff like 'I STILL HAVE MY SHOES!' then he gave me a hug ^^ After that i didn't see him again :(
Well, it was a hectic but fecking awesome day! if you where there feel free to message me! (especially if you are the lost shoe crowd surfer!)
