Nope... but here's my review that I posted on the Kelly forum..

Quote:

OMG... it was amazing!!!

Heya guys!

Was at Dublin last night... here's my review.

The Journey

Left my town at 1:30 on the bus and was on the bus for ages! Got to Dublin at 5:30pm and stopped off in a relative's house for something quick to eat. Our friend Suzan came to pick us up and drive us all to the Point together (got lost along the way :lol: ) and we all got warmed up listening to Breakaway in the car.

The Gig

TBH, we didn't bother much with The Faders.. we went in for their last song because they're not my thing. They didn't sound bad but I just find them a bit sh!t. They went off the stage after like a half hour so it wasn't too bad. So I used that half hour as my flyer handing out time which was so much fun. Everyone was so nice. :D

We were awaiting Kelly anxiously and a Kelly chant broke out across the venue. It was soo cool. Then the lights went off on stage and everyone started cheering but still no Kelly. :P

Then the lights in the stadium went off and we knew she was on her way. She ran onto the stage and burst into Walk Away which was absolutely amazing!!

She was wearing an Ireland top and she seemed really impressed with the crowd!

She did the set list from the Cardiff gig which was amazing. But I did want to see more album tracks from Thankful. :( She was saying how much she liked Ireland because our streets were like little village streets! She seemed really happy to be here.

We had really good seats too and it was so much fun with all the people around us. We were all singing and jumping and dancing and the atmosphere was... typically Irish!

Unfortunately, all good things come to an end and this was the same. Kelly finished with Breakaway which was really good. She let the crowd sing most of the chorus for her. :D

Highlights of the performances for me were: IHMFLY, SUBG, BOY, Addicted. Those four were amazing!

The MEET & GREET

So, after the actual concert me and my friend went down to the stage to meet Kelly. I met Jonathan there (innocenteyesuk) and he told me he his M+G tix weren't there so we talked to some people and I just told him to stick around and I'm sure he would get in. He did in the end. Superman to the rescue. :wink:

We were waiting for aaaaages for Kelly.. but we got the usual signed pic and pep talk. It sounded like ehr security guard was talking as if she was an animal though... I didn't like that.

But when she did come out and I met her it was soooo cool. I'm not gonna post about it here. Saving it for street team members only. :twisted: :lol:

I had a really great night though and Kelly was sooo nice. I'll add my pics and stuff later.

Here's the special Street Team bit...

Well, as I said we were all waiting for ages for Kelly to come out and everyone looked so anxious to see her!

She did come out eventually though and everyone was really happy.

When it was my turn to meet her I went up and gave her a hug. I told her my name and she was like "OMG Laaaaaance! You're my UK site person and the guy who does the street team." I was like "Yeah, that's me.. it's ace!" Kelly was like: "Aww you rock dude. Thanks for everything."

Then she looked at me and said "You're so cute, your eyes are the bluest eyes I have ever seen - they're beautiful!" I went all blushy.. like this guy >> :oops: :rolleyes:

ETA: She said I smelt nice too... (Lisa told me to spray myself before I met her. :lol: )

Kelly then said "Wow, I love your accent. The Irish accent is so cool and your streets are so villagey (she said that on stage too!)"

I gave her her bag of mini eggs then and I said "I got you these because I heard you spilt the bag Jen gave you in Birmingham." She was like "Yaaa... more eggs, I love these, dude. Everyone on the bus does too! We'll be eating them later!"

She left them down on the table and then I gave her an Ireland soccer jersey. "She was like wow, green and orange. I love them colours." I told her it was to remind her she was in Ireland. And she said whenever she came back she would bring it with her and wear it. :spin2: I told her to wear it on St. Patrick's Day and she was like "Oooo cool.. I will!"

Then before I gave her the next present I told her the gig was amazing and she said she was having a few sound problems with her earpiece and stuff. But I just said she was amazing all night. She was like "Thaaaaanks!" I asked her about the DVD Jen gave her and she said she hadn't watched it yet but will do soon.

I then gave her the street team t-shirt and told her she could be an honourary member. She has one already but I wanted to give her another one anyway. :laugh: She was really pleased with it.

She pi$$ed herself laughing at my signed pic. She thought it was hilarious. I kinda slipped that to her quietly cos everyone else was like right beside me and I didn't look a prat. She thought it was hilarious though.

Before I left she asked me if I wanted a pic... "I wouldn't leave without one", I said. And riiight before I left I got a hug and I gave her something special (surprise!) and I gave her Naomi's letter which I almost forgot about. :blush:

And I just said thanks for a great show and I left.

Oh, and on my way out I fell over a box. :roll: What a great way to end the day. :laugh:

what a good looking chap you are Lancelot, if i knew you were gonna meet her i would of give you my number to pass on

EDIT - I would rather piss razor blades then listen to her though

Lance she is short.. or are you tall?

Cool pic Lance - I bet you were excited when you met her!

The only celeb I've ever met is Darius Danesh back in 2003 - I still have the pics from that day (memorable in more ways than one!) on my wall. I'll probably end up meeting Journey South as I live quite near them and like Carl the best!

Hardly call Darius a celebrity though would ya?

Thought you would be! :tongue:

I like Kelly Clarkson - some of her recent stuff is good and often played on Metro (my most listened-to station and fairly local for me!)
