08:35 AM - I closed my eyes and pretended
|

but i didn't have to because i was there.
But lets start at the begginning
They let us in a little early because it was pissing it down and when i went in the guy drew a line accross my ticket, i figured maybe they weren't using it or something but it turned out to be so the person who let you in to the main bit could see quickly if you were allowed to be there, i got sent up to the balcony to a seat that was 4 rows from the back!
Anyway, the support act was, well she seemed to think she was a hell of alot better then she actually was and half way through the set she seemed to think she was Tori Amos (except she couldn't hold the notes)
While she was singing i suddenly remembered the ticket i couldn't sell, this one didn't have a line across it, would it work? i told myself i was being stupid for even considering that but after the support had finished i thought what the hell and.... it worked!
It wasn't untill i got to the second from the front row that the realisation about what i'd managed to do actually hit me. I tried to laugh but i was so overwhelmed i couldn't make a sound and my legs were shaking so hard i could barely stand up!
I forced myself to calm down and noticed the guy infront of me had a really cool shirt on, he said he'd got it from Sweden 'hold on a minute' i thought 'isn't Almareallymatters ment to be here with a guy from Sweden?' i asked him if it was him and it was! then i saw coming towards me someone a little bit taller then i was with short curly dark hair carrying half a cup of wine and it was Alma!
I don't know how i thought she'd look but it wasn't really how she was but it was definately her, she is excatly like in her journals as in the SAME!
I can't really remember most of what we said to each other at first, i think it was mainly about how we didn't look how we imagined each other but she turned to me and said "your journal entries do my head in" great, i thought here's me thinking we'd be able to get through the entire night without having to talk about that. But she didn't make a bid deal about it, she gave me a hug and said "this is from Wildy" and gave me another and said "this is from SarahG" it choked me up actually, it always does when i think that someone may actually care.
Then Morrissey came on.
I won't bother telling you what the set was like as basically, THERE ARE NO WORDS but i will tell you that i kept looking up and suddenly realising it was actually Morrissey on stage so close to me, i was so happy and tears were streaming down my face and i have never been able to cry properly no matter how upset i've been, but i could do it then and it was a release i needed so badly, it was amazing.
I almost got to touch him but i couldn't reach, i have never been so pissed off at being short!
I did get part of his shirt though (thanks Alma xxxx) yes i did it's in my wallet forever and no matter how many people tell me to i will niether sell it on e-bay or use it to make a Moz clone!
I've never felt so happy as i did that night.
And even now in the final hour of my life i'm falling in love with him all over again.

I am the meek, I am the righteous, I am the Morrissey fan.

You know, your journals sometimes make me cry, but this one made me well up for a different reason! I really hope Morrissey does come on this site, because I want him to know how happy he makes fans. I'm overjoyed you got to the front and got some shirt, it couldn't have happened to anyone more worthy! Next time you're feeling down just close your eyes and remember that feeling, that's what I do.
Aw, yes, that hug was from me! She should have given you 2, though, so here's another one
*hug*
Take care,
Love and *hugs*,
