03-Oct-2008: The Ahoy, Rotterdam - Tickets, Preview, Meetups, Review/Photos
part 3: We couldn’t get outside fast enough… I wanted to get a tourbook but the line was too big… so chavi and I decided to stalk immediately but I ran into my boss… and then my collegue who were asking about us and my boss saw me on the screen she told me she’d buy my Antwerp tickets from me she wanted to go again so badly!! Cutteee! But then we were like.. we should goo stallkkkkkkk!! Were outta here! My sister and tim came along with us and we met Lauren again at a spot we agreed to before the show… the tourbusses were right around the corner and easy accesable… I remembered from a R#42 blog that they were driving around in vans with german plates, and I saw I van lke the one I saw at brixton.. so while everybody hung back I went to check the plates.. and they were…. GERMANN weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I went to get Chavi and the rest and I was like we stay near this door and were not leaving until these vans are gone!!! Period! I had my marker and rush of blood to the head cd booklet ready! So now we wait… we saw the afro woman.. ( I think she’s Kelly chief of security that R#42 mentioned before?) And I told everybody that she was there at brixton when Guy and jonny came out and now I was sure at least somebody was inside! Weeeee! A lot of people passed us by, also someone with an Oxfam jacket and Chavi said: ‘Tnx for your blogs!’ he turned around and said: ‘what?’ and then I recognized him and it clicked I said:’ you’re Pete right?’ He was in utter surpise and was like.. uhmm yeah how do you know?!?! So I said you’re famous too! We always read your blogs they’re really great, he seemed so flattered he had some fans! And he came over to us and we chatted for quite some time! He told us a lot of thing, first we asked if he got a lot of signatures and he was very pleased and talked about that.. than we asked about touring with the band.. some security passed us by saying we should leave cause the band had left with a police escort! First I said: don’t lie man I see the van I know someone is back there but he insisted and then I said well doesn’t matter cause were talking to Pete right now! Then of course we had to ask if he knew anybody wass till inside… he said he wasn’t sure… and I just blurted out: could you check… so rude.. but I took it back immediately! We told him we’d be going to Antwerp tomorrow and he said well then I’ll probably see you there! Then he went to get a shower and left us again.. Some guys from albert’s band came out and we recognized the bassplayer! Chavi told him we were clapping for him and he was like owwh yeah I remember then I told him we’d thrown a balloon on stage for him especially and he said ooh no I missed it! (we didn’t tell him what it said though) and we’d be at the Antwerp show as well, he was really impressed and asked us to bring balloons again so he could find us and hook us up with a guitar pick or a drumstick or something! Soo sweet! We then asked to take his picture and I said: we don’t even know your name! he said: call me what ever you like…. So chavi.. quick as she was said: Okay Judy! :lol: he then went back in.. and my sister and tim left cause they were tired and it was cold… it also started to rain… Tim gave us a piece of plastic before he left and his cd booklet.. just in case..! we stood under the piece of plastic and waited…. Another security guard kept opening the door and looking at us… by the 3rd time I was like: yeah we’re stil here… were die hard were not going anywhere! He then started talking to us asking us where we were from and he turned out to be dutch so I spoke to him for a little while, and asked him if we were waiting for no reason, he said oh the rest have left, but HE is still inside… what d o you mean he? Chris??!?!?!?! Also one of the vans left with miller and some woman.. we said hi to miller and thanked him for the blog and the spreadin the love sign… but I guess he was a bit rushed.. Kelli (?) told the driver he needed to come back again for someone else (chris maybe) He said: yeah I’m pretty sure I’ll go check if you want… uhmmm YEAHHHHH He came back and confirmed! Weeeeeeeee chris still there! We were meeting chris!! In the mean time the bassist from alberts band came back and brought us 2 setlists and signed them, said his name was Reno.. he ffelt sorry cause he didn’t have anything for lauren, went back inside and got a tour schedule (VERY HELPFUL L BTW) and so sweet of him to do that! The van that had gone came back… and so we wait Then Pete came back out and I said hey pete: are you nice and clean ?(don’t start.. I know…) And he said Oh your still here! we chatted some more (did I mention how nice he was?) And then the van pulled up to the door… a lotta things happened quickly and pete said: I ‘ll leave you alone cause someone who might still be inside is coming out now and I don’t want to ruin your chance… CUTEEEE! We said bye and then the door opened….

part 2 of the review.... Albert left and we were waiting again… couldn’t wait for Jay-z to start!!! And then he did… chavi and I were going nuts but most people didn’t understand it would start right after!!! LIT: it might be my favorite song from the album (can’t wait to get the EP) They were starting together again and laughing.. Chris teased jonny a little whheeee Violet Hill It’s really great live… love to hear everybody scream IF YOU LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVEEE MEE! Clocks: I love this song and I really want crazy… In my place… Time for some ramp of love action!!! Videos should be great cause my sister filmed, so did chavi and I did we all got some different views I think! It was all cuteness when chris bowed to let jonny on his ramp.. Plus the song is amazinggg YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH Speed of sound: my boyfriend loves this song so I called him during I have to say I miss Guy’s piano playing in it! but you know what can you do? Still a great song In between the camera guy in front of us asked us to hold up the Chavi’s sign and we were on the big screen wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Cemetries of London: the moment I;ve been waiting for: I hadn’t seen any of the videos (yes that was hard) and I really loved the live version.. people sang along good and off course I enjoyed Guy at the piano! Chinese sleep chant… so great live coz chris dances funny and Guy rocks his ass off! Weeee! 42 Chris fucked up the end a bit and did the last part acoustic at the piano again.. VERY GOOD! Fix you!! Yeahhhh I only filmed the beginning coz I needed to jump around during this song! Amazing amazing amazing amazing! Strawberry swing I had forgotten this was back on the setlist and so I was a little surprised and VERY happy about it… also I can’t believe how long Guy holds up his hand and clapss theman must have MUSCLE Time for B-stage… I couldn’t see that much but it was okay.. I never heard the talk remix before I LOVED it! The hardest part… I’ve always loved this song, and while Chris sang his bit I turned around and watched guy He came over to jonny and sat down together.. I think they saw chavi and me taking pics of them… Post cards from far away… such lovely background music to drool over Guy… Viva la vida: dance dance dance sing sing sing! Lost: yeahhh Chris goofy dancing.. and Guy playing drums. What more could a person want? The scientist/death will never conquer: sing a long!! I love it chavi and I turned around and pointed at the area we knew they’d be (someone told us) nobody got it at first but then were amazed when we were right!) I loveeeee will singing and chis says the sweetest things about him! Viva remix (why does it say talk on the setlist?) tried to do the cell phone thing… let’s just say dutch people are boring…. No ooohing either!!! Politik…. Jump jump jump jump! Great live Lovers in japan… time for butterflies!!! Weeeeeee just wanted to enjoy this but I couldn resist taping some of it best song on the album I think and I love it even better live Death and all his friends: ohhnooo! Almost the end! haven’t heard it live yet so great!!!! Jonny still can’t do his singing part.. it’s cute The first goodbye! Jonny came to our side and I think he read chavi’s sign which I was holding up he threw some guitar picks and Tim almost caught one.. but it bounced out of his hand again… it laned on his shoulder and the guy behind him stole it!! Grrrrrr Also… bowing is HOTTT :D Yellowww: weeee thanked us in dutch again verrry cute! Then he madeus sad by saying they probably wouldn’t play in Holland again for at least a year maybe even two… :bigcry: Then Chris made a big jump and Guy was laughing at him the cutenesssss!!! Oh no the escapist… goodbye again… I yelled so hard for jonny to throw more picks(sorry about that)… and he did!!! Just not at us… to the guys next to us (coldplayer?) But then it was all okay when will threw his stick!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee The camera man came straight to me and chavi and gave us his setlist… then I was busy taking a pick of my sis and tim, when chavi got Jonny’s setlist!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee again! Now it’s time to get outside… to be continued… muhahahahaha

okay my review.. i'll post in pieces Okay the review: here it goes I arrived at the venue at about 14:30, My sister and brother in law held a space for me in the front of the line which was really nice of them… also tnx to all the people who let me in there! My sister had been preparing all these people saying I was actually their biggest fan but I just couldn’t make it! Chavi arrived at 16:07 (was in my texts) I was all weeeeeeeeee first time I met her and I was just sooo happy My stalker soulmate! Unfortunately some people from the Ahoy came in just before her and sort of closed the lines securing the front row people which was good for us… but not for Chavi, she had to stand a bit further away So I told her to run run run like hell and we’d keep a space for her up front Lauren (Lauve) arrived quite soon after and we surprised her with the fact Chavi was there (she had a feeling but she wasn’t sure) Lauren had a seat and so she was able to stand with Chavi so she wouldn’t be alone.. although I think chavi made a dutch friend in line who was very supportive… 18.30 doors opening awfull security woman held me and my sister up for too long! Made us show our camera’s while other people from behind us were going through!.. but it was okay when we got in… Tim was up at the fence and held a spot for me! My sister was okay standing behind us. I turned as soon as I got in and tried to climb a bit up the fence waving and yelling CHAVIIIIIIIIIIIIII At first there was a woman between us and we asked if she could let her trough cause we were together, but she was saying how she should have been there earlier… after a couple of minutes though she realized we really were together and she let Chavi through a bit and she was able to stand right behind me. (so thanks for that!) I brought some blue and red balloons and Chavi and I decided to blow them up… and write things on it with marquer.. I think we annoyed some people.. so sorry for that but we wrote coldplaying.com and people read it soo that was good! Also wrote: thump a bass, hump the bass player… and Phil is hot! We threw most of them into the venue but kept those I wrote in our hands for the show… 20:30 right on time Albert Hammond JR.. I never heard anything before but I liked it! The bass player was really enthusiastic and encouraged us to clap along.. chavi and I did and he looked at us in approvement… we figured he’s the bass player and tried to throw the balloon with the humping on stage… it made it but only stayed there for a sec (you’ll think who cares.. but it’s important later!)
