Took me well over an hour to write this. I started crying at the end!It's LONG
5th July My last day, how surreal it was. After stocking up on my queuing food the night before I set my alarm for 6.55am. I arrived at Wembley at 8 and got into the first pen! After a while I chatted to some people. At 9ish this girl I had met the day before in the crowd came up to me and said hello and that she was going by herself after having bought one after the show the night before-I had a queuing friend,yay! Whose name was also Laura and she loved Mark, woop. The day flew by, with the music coming on about half 12. The 2 girls next to us had speakers and were playing TT and Mark music which everyone appreciated. Laura had brought a pillow with her which when she went to the toilet and off to buy food I have 2 half hours naps on-heaven! Weirdest place I’ve ever fallen asleep, lol! I also made a banner saying ‘Happy Birthday Jason (In 5 Days!)’ which Laura helped me colour in. Soon enough, it was time for the running and I was feeling sick. They had squished up all up by then and some rude people had tried to get in front of us so we elbowed them back! Laura was running for the B-Stage and I was going for main so we said bye and good luck before the mania began. They moved us to another area and loads of people got in front of me, one poor girl lots her flip-flops! Poor thing had absolutely never done this before; flip-flops are the worst possible running shoes in the world. After the turnstile and the bag search I got to the stairs and saw that front row was EMPTY. I ‘walked quickly’ and got a spot right in front of the stage! It was a bit up (the good up) from where I had been in Dublin; it was as if I had come full circle. I had wanted the other side havn’t not been on that side yet but it was too long and too risky and Mark was always on the side I had! A few seconds later, who was to turn up right next to me but the Irish Thatters I knew from Dublin! The girl next to me, Tara was lovely and we were all nattering away. I found out from her, the reason that front row was empty is because they opened our gate before anyone else’s-brilliance! The one annoying thing was everyone around me was foreign and didn’t speak much English so whenever Tara was chatting to someone else, I was all alone, boooo. I chatted to the security guards; most of them recognised me from the day before, haha! One guy-Paul said he loved the Irish and befriended us lot. He said we were the best fans he had ever met-woop! Another one said Take That fans were the most dedicated. The usual ad’s and songs were on. There is one ad for Durex where there is an opera song played on it and all the Irish Thatters were singing along everytime it was on-brilliant! There was also a Chris Moyles ad for the TT show and the last Hey Jude singsong ![]() The ringmaster appeared and introduced Gary Go, I pretty much knew the intro off by heart at this rate! The security guards were as fed up with him as we were, lol! The girls next me had an ‘Irish Elite’ flag and there was another lot of them on the other side as well as my lil one on my Jay banner-the Irish were dominating front row! They were waving like mad at Gary Go and we got a wave, yay! I think he recognised us too. Lady GaGa came a little while later and credit to her did a different set than the day before. As the show was started earlier than usual as it was last night, the clowns soon appeared. I also saw Chris Vaughn (who I went HELLO to only to receive a strange look back, lol!)Kim Gavin, James and Paul and Skippy dressed as a clown! Oh yes clowns. They walked near us and after much persuasion I got a balloon off one! He then said (when he spoke it freaked me out, haha) ‘When you see Take That’ and I went ‘let it go’ to which he nodded. Soon enough another clown appeared and it was Ciaran! One of the dancers, whose been there since the comeback. I went to him ‘You’re a dancer not a clown’ to which he just smiled and nodded, lol! He seemed to like us since we were all Irish! Soon the intro started and I was nearly crying before it even begun! When the balloons were let go by the clowns on stage, I let mine go. I looked up into the sky as I heard Gary sing ‘Ooohhh’ and all I could see was color. It was beautiful, I shed a little tear! And then they began to sing and the crowd did too. All the girls around me looked as upset as I was feeling! Gary said ‘It’s our last night’ and we all cheered. Whenever I listen to GD now all I can hear is ‘Today this could be the greatest day of our lifes’ SING then the crowd singing and Markie going ‘I wanna see your arms in the air!’ I also love how everyone does the ‘Hold On’ arms for Greatest Day. And the guys hugging-aww! Then the boys did their usual ‘I’m Gary I’m etc We’re Take That’ woop. Then there was Hello with the ladders and the waving and the guys going into around the B-Stage crowd-jealousness. Could it be Magic had everyone dancing-the Italian trio in front of me (when I turned around to see the B-Stage ![]() Mike Stevens and Jamie Norton came on for A Million Love Songs. Everyone was swaying and singing and I even cried a little! Emotional night. Jay then said ‘Oh we have to leave this stage’ soon which caused loud cheering from our end and boo’s from the B-Stage. Jay went ‘Why do I always get the bad lines fellas, eh? We’ll have to sort this script out’ and I was like ‘You can’t, last night, argh!’ Back for Good had us all waving our arms and singing as the poor B-Stage lot got soaked. I adore when Gaz says ‘Let it Rain!’ The Garden and the elephant were next which meant they were coming our way! As they were right above us, we were waving and screaming like fricking maniac’s and they waved back, woop! As they went down under the stage, Mark stayed for a second and said ‘Do you mind if I just enjoy this for a minute’ before ‘Ladies and gentlemen are you ready to run away to The Circus’ before he went too. Bless him. Then the ringmaster said ‘Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve been waiting for Welcome to’ and we all screamed with him ‘THE CIRCUS!’ The acts, the trapeze people and the swinging guy and the big cube guy and all the other ones I always forget did their usual before the guys appeared on the stage. Markie came right in front and cos I was waving like a maniac he looked at me, MORE THAN ONCE! Was amazing. It’ll be nice to know that the guys recognized me after being up the front so much. The other guys all looked at me during the rest of the night but because I don’t love them as much as Mark I can’t remember when! With Shine there’s the really long ‘Shineeeeeeeeeeeeeeee’ bit and you could see How smiling over at us that we were doing it too. Then the extra chorus which after 6 shows I never remember about, lol! That had us all waving our arms and singing. Mark went ‘I want to see you all dancing’ as Up All Night began and we all happily obliged! Jay wiggled his hips at us then, he kept doing stuff like that all night, it was brilliant! After Jay was doing his usual ‘What do you think of our’ when he mentioned the elephant Markie went ‘We need the home for the elephant, we won’t need him after tonight’ and everyone put their hands up, lmao! He laughed at that. Then they all got sidetracked and started saying how emotional they were all it was over and they would deffo tour again as they loved it. Jay even went ‘Look at us, 4 knobheads from Manchester licking Wembley’ to which the boys laughed at. It was a lovely lil goodbye chat. You can tell they’re all good friends and it was really nice. After getting distracted they got back to the off off off bit, Jay has been very reluctant all tour, grr. I got a bit overexcited and kept screaming ‘Take your trousers off Jason!’ He’s too damn hot. Jay then finally got back to the songs and went ‘This next song should have been a single’ to which we all wooped and we got a smile off Jay! And then he went ‘It wasn’t cos I’m the worst at lead vocal’s’ to which we screamed NO! Wooden Boat was lovely. Then it was ‘rock n’ rock Take That eh?’ time with a bit of How Did It Come To This. Mark put his pic in his teeth again for clapping, so effing gorgeous! Everyone was singing and clapping and Jay looked so happy, I was so pleased for him! Then the guys disappeared as Gary went to his piano and the runway. ‘The boys have made a mistake, leaving me alone with a piano and an audience. I hope you brought your sleeping bags!’ to which we all cheered! He did his singsong of Love Ain’t Here Anymore, Babe and Nobody Else which he hasn’t done at every concert so it was nice that I saw it 4 times. Being up front I saw the tightrope walker getting ready, but as usual I kept my eyes on Gary instead of watching him. He gets enough attention from the rest of the crowd! The tightrope walker, not Gary, lol. Not that Gary is deprived off love or anything :P What is Love was next and I could see the guys coming from the back of the stage so I screamed ‘BOYS!’ before the WIL intro was finished,lol. For the first time I saw them being handed stuff from inside the boxes had always wondering where the got it! Still think it’s amazing they put on make-up and sing at the same time. Then it was time for the Medley! The guys all thrusting and dancing-yum by a million. I adore that part of the show. When the guys came out with their unicycles, Jay was wearing sunglasses which was strange! For each member we chanted their name. When it came to Jason we were chanting JAY JAY JAY and he fell off for two seconds! Just while trying to get on though, so we gave him extra cheers. I still love that Mark needs help getting on-bless him! I loved being up the front that everyone was as mad as me that we were all doing the dance moves with the boys, brilliant. When they got down to the B-Stage they did Take That and Party before pulled their pants down to great appreciation! There was an adorable bit where they were all standing in their pants trousers around their ankles, symbols on their bums and they all joined hands and started jumping up and down! Cuteness. My eyes filled as they began Said It All. When they were all back on the stage and Markie was well into his bit the ticker tape exploded. And this time it was DROWNING me. I had ticker tape in my hair, on my clothes, everywhere! I was singing Said It All (my fav bit) with Take That a few metres away as ticker tape exploded around me, with me trying to catch every bit. It was magical. For Never Forget, all the guys’ crew came out into the gap between the barrier and the stage and did the arms, it was so nice! The guys looked really touched, especially Howard. It was amazing doing the claps so close to the boys. I looked around one last time as we all did the Never Forget claps and in that moment I felt so happy, it was unbelievable. Patience was next. Howard came in front of us and took out his earpiece and was gesturing at us to sing louder. He kept smiling :P The guys all looked over at us. The stadium was soooo loud and we were waving our arms around like mad. Mark was stomping like mad! It was brilliant. Relight was next and I knew the fire was coming. I ducked down and put my banner over my head, I didn’t want my scalp burned again! It was still soooooo hot though! I hid for the majority of Relight cos of the fire. I did get to see Mark whip his whip at us though-omfg amazzinggggg. And him in a cage-also amazing! Oooh and all the fans were doing the Relight arms over the barrier which was brilliant. I was so happy when Relight was over, I hate that damn fire! But it meant only 2 songs left ![]() The lights went up and we all stood in disbelief, in tears that the tour was over. No one let go of the barrier for a good few minutes. I felt quite lonely cos everyone was hugging. So I rang my dad and then got hysterical when I had someone to talk to. I couldn’t stop crying all the way home. As upsetting as it was and still is, it was an unbelievable experience. It was the best few weeks of my life, travelling around, meeting other fans, seeing my boys 6 times. It was worth every last penny I spend on it, worth every last second I spend lying on the floor queuing. They make me happy, simple as. The tour made my world bright and colourful and made me feel normal for a few weeks. It was a magical time and I won’t ever forget it. Thank you Take That for absolutely everything. |
