Hi, i havent ben on here for ageeeeees! But i had to come online to tell you guys about the amzing Dublin Show. Like many of you i went to 2 Gwen shows. The first one i went to was at the NIA in Birmingham. My seat was Block A Row M seat 14. So it was pretty good but not the best view in the world and not the best pics either. So anyway me and my family flew to Ireland to go to the show there (b'day present for me). It was general admission and the doors opened at 7pm. I wanted to start queueing at 5 but noooo my mom didnt want to wait that long (it was slightly raining). Our hotel was right next to the venue so i could see the queue from my window. At 5.15 it was about 30 people long, sooo i persuaded mom to go down at 5.30. By now the queue was about 40/50 people long.
When we got in i raced straight to the front as did everyone else. I got really near, not holding the barrier but behind the people holding the barriers. Anyway most of you have seen the concert so i wont go into details about that (you can just see the pics) other than to say it was gobsmackingly awesome! It was so much more amazing than B'ham. I think because it wasnt seated there was alot more excitement and the atmosphere was electric so i think Gwen felt it to and she just went a lil more crazy than usual.
The craziest thing was it was her Birthday the day after and after each song had finished and it was relatively quiet the whole crowd tried to sing Happy Birthday to her but it didnt really work. So then after Gwen had introduced all the dancers/harajukus/band members, Stephen Bradley goes "hold up hold up! We gotta a few special announcements to make! First i have to say that Dublin you are the loudest f****ng crowd on this tour!! (doubt thats true lol) And second it is a very special persons birthday very soon!"
Then the band started to play Happy Birthday and everyone sang along!! Gwen was like acting all embarrassed then she held both her ears out :  She even took out her earplug thingies to listen!!
After she thanked us and then this girl threw a card onto the stage and it had a little me to you bear taped to it. So Gwen was like wow a card! She goes im gonna open it now. So she opened it and goes "wow thanks a hundered dollars!" (this was a joke lol) This is her reading the card:
I saw inside and it had 2 pages full of writing so she didnt read it all then she pointed to the girl that threw it and said thankyou! Then she went hey you know what come up here! Come on! And this girl took about 3 attempts to get over the barrier. Failed. Then a body guard helped her over. She got on the stage and Gwen jumped into her arms like this:
And i was just standing there with my mouth haging open thinking why the f*** didnt i do that!!??
The girl even got a hug and got gwen to sign loads of cd covers for her whilst on the stage (she had them and a pen in her pocket)
At the end of the concert in what you waiting for Gwen selected a few people from the front of the crowd and got them up on the stage!!! She didnt pick me. =( She mostly picked little kids but she picked this teenage lad and he was all crying and hugging gwen and thanking her!
My personal highlight of the evening was when i picked my little sister up and held her quite high (above everyone else, my sis is so small she ouldnt see anything my mom was giving her a piggy back for like the whole night) and Gwen looks at my sis in the middle of a song pointed straight at her and waved! I just erupted into loud screams...
Anyway i shall post pics on a seperate post.
EDIT: OMG I TOTALLY FORGOT!! At the concert someone asked what the "G" stands for?!? (i think maybe they were joking lol) But then in OCG i was the ONLY person to scream out when she sang "me and ND" ![Surprise [:O]](/emoticons/emotion-3.gif) AND i think that a load of the fans only knew her singles cos when she sang like Dont get it twisted and Danger Zone i swear barely anyone around me was singing along. But when it came to Hollaback girl or Wind it up everyone was singing!
And this horrid fat girl and her friends who were next to me started to sing "Take this pink ribbon of my eyes, im duh duh da duh duh..... " and it kinda trailed off cos they didnt know the words. Then they all laffed at themselves and sang "Oh im just a girl, a duh duh duh duh" They didnt know the words again! I wanted to say - If you dont know the words then STFU!!
