…. so I thought that the poster was my chance. And I do this insane thing, I made a poster which said: ‘Can I sing 'The Currents’ with you?’. I now actually wish that I had written something less selfish, like a Kyle’s talent appreciation poster or anything. But oh well. So I actually finish this poster like a few hours before the gig, and go straight to the venue. I was freaking out that I would be late, but at about 1 pm I was only the 8th person in the queue. And being the idiot that I am, who can’t stick to only one opinion I immediately got mad at people for not being in line already. But anyway, let’s skip the waiting in line 'cause there’s nothing cool about that. Let’s get straight to that part when we saw that minibus with the band and Tom sitting in the front sit and filming. We were the first on the Eastern European leg of the WW tour so I think they wanted to film that. BUT, imagine them arriving in the bus, AND seeing about 15-20 people in line. I felt such a shame for my Country. So, then we saw the guys coming out of the bus. Woody was the first one, that I remember clearly, then I’m not sure, I think either Will or Kyle. And I remember that Dan was the last one. All the girls around me legit screamed at the sight of Dan and we actually wanted to approach them. But the lady who assisted them (she was a local, that I can tell for sure), just shushed at us and told us to stand still. Will and Dan waved at us though. So that’s alright. Okay, so then we learned from Twitter that the guys went to explore the city while we were waiting in line which is fine, I’m happy that they get to see so many new places this time around. So in the end, the doors were open and there were quite a few people who cut the line, so I was worried I wouldn’t get the front row. So I got to the venue and we were even prohibited to run to the barricade (like what the actual f*ck?). Luckily, I made some good friends with thhose other girls who were standing with me in line and I saw that they were holding a place for me - sweetest thing EVER! So, we score the front row and I was about to die because I got just the place that I’d wanted, the Kyle’s side. The opening act - Matt Wills - was fantastic and it’s too bad we didn’t come up with anything for the guy, but we did sing along to his songs. We even got to hang out with him after the show. The most likeable and sweetest lad out there! To the Bastille show, though. So, the show started and like anyone, I was feeling exhilirated, the sound was sooo good, and the boys were so good looking, so I was singing my heart out and I totally forgot about my sign which was lying right under my feet. And then my friends started nagging me about it. I was very shy at first and it took me about 2-3 songs to actually do it. So okay, I put up the poster, and my friend helped me hold it. So, the song started and I know lots of people hate at it for its political content, but to me it means a lot and I see it not only as a political song but also a deeply personal one. Anyway, the song started and Dan just pointed his finger at me. And I was like, WAIT WHAT? no, that can’t be. And he goes on and sings the first verse, and dancing his crazy tribal dances, as he usually does. So, I think, well, okay, well, maybe he meant that the song was like 'for me’. Egoistic? yes! but I wanted to believe that and I did. BUT…. then the craziest thing happend. During the chorus Dan started moving towards the edge of the stage, and when he started going down the stairs the realisation struck me hard. I mean, everything was like in a movie - slow mo, and all that jazz. I swear, every second lasted more than an eternity. My mouth went completely dry and my mind went blank. So, there I was, with Dan fucking Smith holding his mic out to me to sing the second verse to The Currents. And I sang. Horribly! Too quiet for anybody to even hear (I don’t think the crowed even noticed that there was somebody else singing) but singing my heart out with the rest of the band playing and OMG this was MAGICAL!! After the verse….Dan went up the stage again and gave me the thumbs up, and I even have this on camera. AND on top of it, Kyle also gave me the thumbs up, this one, however is going to stay in my heart and in my mind forever because there’s no video of this part. But Kyle kept glancing at out part throughout the whole gig and I smiled back at him A LOT because duh! he’s a gorgerous human being! So, that’s basically it. The show was incredible! We waited around for about 2 more hours but as we soon realised the guys went straight to the hotel. It was the last day of winter so we legit froze our asses off but i still don’t regret it. It was the best way to say goodbye to winter. I want to see them again so bad, but I don’t think it’s going to happen any time soon.
