Atmosphere = Electric Concert = Out.Of.This.World
39 weeks ago the tickets were booked. 10 days ago they arrived. 1 long day at school and it was finally here!!
We arrived at the arena around 6.40pm where we bought a programme (I was already wearing my tour t shirt and necklace) and then we went straight to our seats - block 114, row w, 16 & 17. Talk about excited, I nearly wet myself at the view we had!! After being sat right at the very back in the O2, I couldn't believe that I would be able to see their faces!!
S.E.B came on at 7.30 and she really was a great choice for the support act. When she asked the crowd who had seen Take That on tour before everyone screamed, but when she asked who had seen them on this tour it was only me and my mum who screamed in our little bit - everyone looked at us like we were mad!!!
The lights went down and the podiums began to rise, I stared intently at them waiting for the boys to pop up. Then the crowd erupted and the night had begun! I couldn't believe just looking at the stage I could see their faces - it was really them!! I then realised that Howard was going to be pole dancing on our side and began to scream like a maniac!!
A few of my highlights:
Patience was great, everyone was singing along and it really is unbelievable live. Relight My Fire is a great spectacle and being able to look at the stage and see them actually on fire is great. Rule the World - I was really looking forward to this so much, and it didn't disappoint. It's beautiful and when they hit the BStage - WOW!!
The whole of the BStage section is wonderful - the whole of the crowd were going for it - waving their hands in the air to Back for Good and I think we would have sung the whole of A Million Love Songs if we hadn't have been stopped.
Probably the highlight for me was GGF!! I was jumping up and down and screaming like a woman possessed!!! The choreography and everything involved is unbelievable!! Everyone's hands in the air during Never Forget is always something special and I loved the guys on the treadmill - Gary looked so toned!!!!
When the boys began Pray I was sad because as I looked at the stage I thought I may never see them again. I pocketed that image in my mind of them on stage and I hope it stays with me forever.
Thank you Take That for an unforgettable night and giving me memories I will never forget.
