Good to hear that you guys had a great time!:wacko:

 

So cool that you got to meet the guys, Elena! Way to go :dance:

A shame that Gary had left straight after the concert though :(..

Did the rest of the guys take their time writing autographs and taking pictures after you had waited for them that long after the gig?

Hi!!

 

It was INCREDIBLY cold and windy!

But they were all really nice to us :dance:

 

I'll write more later... so many little tidbits!

But here's a link to a quick selection of pictures, I took many videos which will be uploaded on my youtube account, but I'll let you now once they're up!

 

CLICK for piccies!

 

For example:

 

 

Nathan surely had fun during Rocket :lol:

I took a short video, it was so cool to watch!!!

Unfortunately it's a bit blurry... but I just have to show you :awesome:

@Anna: Well, I guess I already told you a hundred million (:lol:) times, but still: Your photos are so freaking amazing! :blush: Thanks again for the great time we had! :hug:

 

@RoosAnne: Thanks! :hug: Yeah, it was a shame we didn't get to meet Gary, but oh well, I guess that guy just needs some rest, too. ;) And as for the others... As taxis and their girlfriends/friends/etc. were waiting for them, they didn't have too much time... But still they took the time to sign everything and pose for photos... Of course there wasn't much time to talk a lot, but still they were as genuinly friendly as one could be. They're uch lovely lads indeed. :cheesy:

 

& at least you got to meet the others...even if it took 3hrs in all (i know i wouldn't last that long)! hope it was nowhere as cold for you in London as it was in Bristol for me then. :\

Well, it was quite cold and we for sure had some moments when we just felt like going home because we were quite tired, but then Anna would just turn on some music and everything was fine again. Plus we had quite a lot of fun while watching our vids again... So the time eventually passed by. ;)

 

Okay, finished uploading all of my videos... As I already said, they probably aren't the best because I wasn't at the front (like usually :rolleyes::lol:), but at least the quality of the sounds pretty decent, I think. I'm sorry for the shaking or heads blocking the view, but I'm not that told and especially during the second half I stood on my tiptoes like most of the time... ;) Anyways, here they are...

Anna your pics are :awesome:

And the one with you and Nathan and that one where is Paul with dome girl... Oh I died. :D And yes upload vids no matter they are blurry... I want to see them... :D :D :D

Tnx for the amazing pics. :D

Elenaaaaaaaa!!!

Danke, dass du One Day Like This ganz gefilmt hast :dance:

(= thanks for recording ODLK)

Your sound is great!

 

I loved the Ray Of Light cover soooo much too.

I filmed all of Gary's talking inbetween songs, will take a long while to upload all the videos :bigcry:

Oh, I forgot:

Elena got both setlists, I only have one from the 2nd set:

 

You filmed all his talking... Thats great... I love his inbetween songs talks... :D :D :D

OH MY GOD!!:wideeyed:

thanks for sharing your pics and videos girls!:wacky:

you were so lucky:wideeyed:

I love his inbetween songs talks... :D :D :D

Me too! :laugh4:

I knew that my camera wouldn't make good sound recordings of the songs anyways so I thought I might as well use all my memory for the talking inbetween.

And it was worth it.

All I'll say is: wait for the "Let's talk about my bum / jealous guitar" video :lol:

Oooh I cant wait for your vids. :D

No problem, girls. I'm glad you like the videos, even though the picture quality isn't the best... ;)

 

Elenaaaaaaaa!!!

Aww, that's no problem at all! :hug: It was one of my highlights of the night as well, you see. :) But unfortunately it isn't the whole song because my arms were really hurting like mad towards the end and I also wanted to fully enjoy at least a bit of the song, too. :)

 

Really, just can't wait to see all of your videos. I almost forgot about the "bum"-thingy, how could I?! :stunned: I'm really glad you captured all of it. :lol: I'm also really looking forward to the video of Nate, that definitely was one of my highlights as well! It was so much fun watching him going totally nuts. :laugh3:

Hahahaha... Its strange that no one screamed "Can I kiss you?"

I would probably do that. It would probably be very loud so he'd hear it and I would feel very ashamed. :embarassed:

Anna! So glad you and Elena had a good time!! Your pics are INCREDIBLE! Seriously woman, did you have a press pass or something? ;) I know you've mentioned it before, but what kind of camera do you use? I'm in the market for a new one for xmas! Thanks for sharing those gorgeous pics... can't wait to see all the vids and read your review. :nice:

Elena :hug:

Thanks for sharing all the vids!! I haven't had a chance to see them all, but I'll have that to look forward to! I'm so envious that you guys got to see this show, but am so glad you enjoyed it!

 

Hahahaha... Its strange that no one screamed "Can I kiss you?"

Hi Jen!! :nice:

Thanks!

It's a Canon PowerShot SX200 IS. I can totally recommend it!!

12x zoom, 12,1 Mega Pixels, great AUTO mode but you can still also do the manual settings.

 

Next video with Gary warning us that he could spontaneously combust during the gig in about half an hour, I'll upload more overnight.

Fucking epic. EPIC.

 

:dance:

I absolutely love Give Me Strength great lyrics, really sincere song.

Ahh Bernard! so excited your copy finally came - I'm still waiting for Christmas - it seems like you are more than happy with it though which is getting me even more excited! :)

 

I know I haven't had a chance to comment much at all lately (damn school) but everyone's pics and concert vids are AMAZING! i LOVE the "One Day Like This Cover" - hadn't heard them play that one yet! But everything is just totally great! :) So happy and jealous of all you turkeys that got to meet the band too - how exciting!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to anyone celebrating :)

So happy and jealous of all you turkeys

 

Who are you calling a turkey??:rolleyes:

ahh elena i just got a chance to finish watching the vids! they are fantastic - you must have had such a blast! hahah I almost felt like I was there - good work :)

 

Anna - your pics are amazing - i have the same camera and my videos and pics are rubbish. Maybe mine doesn't work right (or I don't know how to work it!) hahah

 

@ MC - hahah sorry if turkey offended - its a total term of endearment! :)

UP TO NOW IS HERE

YouTube- Snow Patrol, RAH - Gary talk #1 - No means no[/url]

 

First video, still processing, so HD option will be available soon.

i think i heard someone doing an MJ-ish yelp there? :laugh3:

 

Hahahaha... Its strange that no one screamed "Can I kiss you?"

I would probably do that. It would probably be very loud so he'd hear it and I would feel very ashamed. :embarassed:

haha...someone yelled very loudly "It's Bristol!" when Gary mentioned Brighton at Colston Hall. he told the person to "chill your ham" (or something weird like that...it's apparently an Irish saying) after saying that he did know they're in Bristol...he was just trying to say something about the Brighton gig. now that's embarassing! :P

@Bernard: They indeed played "One day like this". It was EPIC!

 

Okay guys, as you can see, I'm back from my little trip to London and I'm still SO lost for words! Really, words just can't describe how great last night's gig was, it simply was out of this world! And I really mean that seriously! :)

The boys were in top form, constantly smiling, grinning and having a good time - one could really see and feel that! Especially Gary was so full of love, he literally had to share it with the audience and hugged several lucky people. :lol: Anna got most of the action between the songs captured (and took such stunning photos as well!), so I think you're all going to see that sooner or later... :) Unfortunately, 90% of my photos turned out crappy, but the videos seem to be quite okay, at least the sound (which was SUPERB in the RAH). :) I managed to get both setlists and I'll try to post them later. We also waited about 3 hours for the boys to come out and eventually met all of them except for Gary (:\). They were all just SO lovely and kind. :cheesy:

I guess that's all for now, I'm sorry. I just arrived at home and should unpack my stuff and so on... I'll try to write a proper review or at least post my few photos and videos, but that might take some time, so I can't promise anything at the moment... ;)

 

Hi!!

 

It was INCREDIBLY cold and windy!

I'll write more later... so many little tidbits!
