[Princess]

Review dong,it is longgggg,just going to check it and put it up. I'll put the Jay bum pic up as well and the rest following!

I had waited 217 days for this and it was finally here! My chance to see Take That in Dublin-the first Irish concert I’ve been to in years. Me and my mum sent off at 6.15 and having got lost quite a bit, arrived at the stadium gates at 8.00 to find about 15 other people in front of us. Groups turned up every about half an hour for a while and by 11 o’clock probably every ten minutes. I met some lovely people in the queue-all going to at least 5; one fan was going to 18! I felt like I was at home, we were all just as mad as each other! By about half 3 the queue had about 300 people in it so they had to move us to another area. What followed was absolute chaos, running, being moved all over the place, people who had been there for hours nearly getting pushed to the back. Mental, it should have been organized much better. When it came to the actual running to the pitch I have never been so terrified! I was legging it with 20 guards all yelling at us crazy lot to slow down but we weren’t going to stop! My shoe nearly came off and I practically hobbled to front row! I saved a spot for my mum who turned up like 2 minutes later. I was soo ecstatic I was shaking and nearly cried!! I was next to a person who I recognised off the net which was weird! The couple on my mum’s side were really lovely-they were doing 5 dates. So we settled in and waited for the first support act.

Gary Go came on at about half 6 and played for about half an hour, he was quite good. After he went the Trafalgar Square ad came on the screens and we all sang along to Hey Jude! After a little while The Script came on and they were BRILLIANT! I never realised how hot the singer was! After they did The Man Who Can’t Be Moved, we cheered so loud that he nearly burst into tears. He said he was so happy to have such a good reception from his home town. After they went another 20 minutes went by and the show started!

A dozen fat clowns in cloud costumes appeared with MASSIVE balloons and went onto a little runway from the A to B stage, where a huge gramophone and a pushy thing(no idea what it was lol) were already. This circusy music filled the stadium as they pushed the thing up and down and made their way over to the B-Stage where a man appeared out of a huge balloon! He proceeded to jump up and down until the balloon popped. I can’t really remember how but suddenly the guys appeared on the B-Stage and I went mental! I even said sorry to the person next to me, lol!

They broke into Greatest Day with everyone singing along and shoving their arms in the air (like Mark does in the vid with ‘Hold On Hold On’). They looked amazing in military type uniforms.
After GD, they sang Hello with them climbing up and down these really big bright ladders and these clowns doing all these dance moves on the stage. There were hugee flowers as well, some newspapers and empty television boxes. Hello was bright and cheerful.
Could it be Magic came next, which was a surprise as I didn’t think they’d do it! Everyone was singing along while the boys jumped up and down on stage.
Pray brought some much needed dancing with all the old moves still being used-you can’t beat it! The guys MD and piano player came onto the B-Stage and another huge surprise came when they sang A Million Love Songs, everyone was swaying and the fans were screaming! Mark sat on top the piano and swung himself backwards which was funny!
Back for Good was quite early in the show, one of the loudest songs of the night. The boys were covered in rain (and half the crowd properly were too!) as they sang the old classic and near the end they got the umbrellas out. The boys moved to the as a giant elephant magically rose up from the stage. I saw one picture of it but it was so much cooler in real life! The boys were atop the elephant as they sang The Garden as the elephant walked back towards the main stage! They got to the end where a little bridge appeared and they disappeared under the main stage.
The tent which has previously been over the main stage lifted up and the stage got sooo much bigger, revealed a massive circular screen as lots of circus acts did some tricks. The boys came back on in white and red outfits and sang Shine. It was unreal how close they were, when Markie walked over to our side, I say he was mere metres away! It was amazing. Mark was wearing a huge hat as per usual and lots of stomping! They did the end of the song the same as the vid with Jay and How swinging Mark over a box! After Shine Mark had said his trousers had spilt! Everyone showed off off off until he said that was the old Take That!
Next was Up All Night, where all the guys played their own instruments (Gaz-piano, Jay and Mark-guitar and Howard on drums).There was a black and white picture playing of their outlines on the circular screen. Up All Night felt like a giant party.
What came next was a HUGE surprise! After Gary has observed how tight Jason’s trousers were and went ‘You can get great stuff in M&S’ which everyone cheered! Everyone began to show off off off again until Jay said his dad was in the audience and he said he thought the next song should have been a single! I was amazed when he started to sing Wooden Boat. It was beautiful. The huge screen then did a close-up of Jay which lasted for the whole next song! Jay swapped his guitar for an electric one and sang How Did It Come To This which is a very fast song, I was out of breath singing along! The security kept looking at us as if we were mental, lol! Jay did amazing; he has come so far since the last tour.
The boys then left the stage except Gary who went to the runway and sat at the piano. We all had a singsong with snippets of Love Ain’t Here Anymore, Babe (which was very strange to hear Gary sing) and Nobody Else for the dedicated fans! The next song was The Circus where a man walked across a tightrope suspended in the air above the stages and did some brilliant tricks. He was incredible, Gary’s spotlight was stolen!
The guys all reappeared wearing stripy tops and bright trousers carrying boxes. They sat on some crates and Howard began to sing What Is Love. They all opened the boxes and proceeded to put on their own clown make-up. Singing and applying make-up at the same time-now that was good! The guys also produced bright top hats adorned with their initial and bright jackets.
Another giant surprise came when the guys started Do What Ya Like which including lots of trusting! Amazing. All the dedicated fans went mental. The dancing was brilliant-very old school! Do What Ya Like was part of a medley including Promises and Only Takes a Minute where Mark, Jay and How all did some breakdancing and rolled over each others backs! Then the unicycles appeared with Howard and Jay putting them in a very rude place! They rode ride out to the B-Stage with Mark being very persistent and practically being pushed down with the help of 2 dancers. Then Gary appeared on a kid’s tricycle and the stadium burst into laughter-it was so funny!
Upon reaching the B-Stage the guys started Said It All which strangely enough I forgot had existed considering it’s one of my favourites. It was so moving live, I nearly cried! They walked back towards the main stage as they sang and disappeared yet again under the stage.
Ton loads of drummers appeared on stage and began to play a tune as circus acts performed around them. It was like the start of Take That Come to Town. Their was a giant symbol on the circular screen. The boys came back on stage in gorgeous yummy gold and black military outfits. Howard sang the fan anthem that is Never Forget, he looked so happy! We all shoved our arms in the air and when the clapping began I looked around the stadium and it was a sight to behold. 83,000 people all doing the Never Forget claps at the same time, it was incredible.
The guys sang Patience with lots of emotion and you could hear the ‘Iiiiiiiis’ ringing around the place. Brilliant. Gary said it was their 2nd to last song which scared me as I knew they had 3 songs left that they couldn’t not do.
When the guys had left the stage, this huge top hat came out of nowhere which turned into a giant puppet with the creepiest face ever! The scantily clan dancers appeared and there were even some in cages! The fire started to come out of the stage and it was ROASTING. I seriously thought it was going to burn! It was not a nice feeling; the poor security guards were hiding under the front row’s coats! The guys came back in sparkly waistcoats, black trousers, big hats and WHIPS! Omfg-now that was yum. They did the classic dance moves with lots of leaping and whipping thrown in too. This new voice rang out as a woman came on to sing Lulu’s part. It turned out she was the original Relight singer! She said she adored the boys and we all cheered. Milton (guitar guy) came on and did a solo as the fire kept going, couldn’t wait for him to finish!
Gary having said it was their 2nd to last song with Patience, we thought there was just one left and they had to sing Rule the World. However there were 2 songs left! My favourite track of the album Hold Up A Light was full of lights and strings players and lots of dancers on the runway. The guys were all wearing black except Markie who was wearing an all in one silver bodysuit! Very Markie, very yum. Rule the World ended the night, it was amazing, very emotional and the crowd sang along and the fans gave it their all. The guys ran around the stage singing goodbye and I looked up into the sky as they sang ‘All the stars all coming out tonight’ and I saw a few. Gold fireworks illuminated the sky as the guys smiled and finished RTW. They bowed, waved around and went off stage.
It didn’t rain all day, I can’t remember when but Jay, Mark and Howard all looked at me at some point! I couldn’t put into words how amazing it was to have my boys just a few metres away, all the stress and everything was completely worth it. It was the best concert in the whole world ever; the atmosphere was out of this world. I can honestly say I have never been so happy and it was the greatest day of my life.
