At the cinema, we watched Minions which came out on Friday so we thought the cinema would be packed with families but it was actually pretty empty. The film was good though, really funny, especially the British stereotypes. Even though it's a kids film, I think anyone with a sense of humour would enjoy it. (I'm not good at film reviews unless I start talking about camera angles and mise-en-scene!)
I saw Room 94 in March 2013 when they supported Lawson and we had to wait outside in the snow for over an hour before they'd let us into the venue. It was a Christmas gift from Kerry and it was our first concert which made it so exciting! I knew if I ordered the tickets, Kerry wouldn't be able to come with me which was really sad because I wanted her to have this experience with me. (It was Kerry's birthday weekend and she couldn't make any plans because her parents had a surprise already planned for her.)
So on Saturday, we drove to Norwich really early because we didn't really know where we were going (The Waterfront) and sat outside for ages while waiting for the doors to open. The security man kept appearing, asking if we had VIP tickets - which we didn't. I don't know if VIP is worth it, what are your thoughts? I mean, you obviously get to hang out with the bands before/after the show and get to be right at the front so you can literally hold their hands but the tickets are almost three times more than standard tickets! I had a great time, with my standard ticket, I got a t-shirt and a signed poster. I got sarcastic comments from 14 year old girls with short skirts, fangirling because their idols were on stage. . .
I had an amazing night and it was down to the fact that I got to hug each member of Room 94 (Kieran, Dean, Sean and Kit) and because I didn't have a panic attack. I was worried beforehand because I didn't know where The Waterfront was and what time we'd be let in. I was worried that people I'd know would be there (Holly and Becky from a youth group I used to go to were there but we only said hi) These little worries didn't lead up to a panic attack or make me super anxious. I'm glad I got to enjoy the gig without anything bad happening.
I think the only sad/bad thing about the gig was that I was probably one of the oldest people there (except Becky, my Mum and other parents) because all the other girls were around 14. (I'm generalising but it seemed that way) Also, one of these girls was smoking an e-cigarette when she was waiting in the line, she commented that she was going to be "15 in like 10 days" so why was she smoking? She's way too young to smoke and e-cigarettes are for people trying to give up smoking aren't they?
