aug 12th.
i went to go and see one of my favourite bands forever like red tonight. vicky was gracious enough to come with me and be my plus one hehe. when i first found out about the show it was already sold out cause the guys were supporting silverchair. had only heard one of their songs until today lol. anyway, i was gutted that i couldnt go and see forever like red cause there was no more tickets but the boys hooked me up and put me on the guest list plus one who of which was vicky of course. (wouldnt have it any other way).
the forever like red gig was AMAZING! camerons voice is astounding.
after FLR played i went to the merch booth and bought there album. the venue was so hot inside cause of all the bloody people. neway, my friend and i decided to go near the entrance for sum fresh air and we saw the FLR boyos packing ther stuff in the van. the bouncers wer being twats and were sayin that ppl cant go outside blah blah blah. my frend and i managed to blag it so that i got to go outside. i walked over the the van and just said 'pelle' (FLR's guitarist),he turned around said 'hey!' and then gave me a hug. i asked him n all the guys if they cud sign there record for me (i evn got a sharpie from ebay so that i was uber cool hehe). the guys signed it and i went back in to be with vicky.
we stayed near the entrance and cameron and pelle came back in. pelle stayed with vicky and me and we had a chat for a while. he then said he's gona go get a beer and then go upstairs to watch silverchair and he will c us later. vicky and i eventually went upstairs wen silverchair came on and sat on a nice leather couch that conveniently became available as everyone went to go see silverchar at the balcony. we stayed on the couch ALL the way through silverchairs set lmao. we saw pelle, mikel (bassist, cnt spell his name! 
) and jesper (drummer) floating around upstairs and they would wave to us. after a while as silverchairs set was 3 quarters of the way done jesper comes over with a shot of tequila for whicever of us wants it. vicky stores shots in her mouth like a squirrel so of course, i had it and downed it. tequila is mank, well the after taste is and everyone could see that i wasnt so keen as i was doing some weird faces and arm movements. it made vicky lol.
after silverchair finished vicky and i waited for the crowd to fade n then made our way downstairs, all of a sudden i herd my name and i turned around and jesper was cumin down the stairs to talk to vicky and i. pelle came dwn a couple of mins later and they wer both just chattin with me and vicky. they asked us if therz newhere decent we cud take em to drink and vicky and io both just went 'aaaaargh u just had to ask us on a sunday the most dullest day of the week in manchester' or something like that neway lol.
eventually one of the bouncers came over and was asking for the special passes. jesper and pelle showed him therz n then he asked if vicky and i had one and in unison pelle and jesper both just went 'YES'. of course the bouncer wasnt buying it so vicky and i had to leave. pelle and jesper looked a bit gutted and vicky and i were indeed gutted.
anyway i had a thuper time. the forever like red boys are THE best and ther record is damn thuper. defo gona stay in my alarm clock to wake me up in the morn for the next few months.
this is mine and vickys second time meeting the guys and they're just as nice as ever.
here's a shitty foto of the signed record. the flash is a bastard!!!
really cant wait until i next see the guys.
sweet :)
