Directly after school
me and my friend Kristin went home by bike as fast as possible. At
home Kristin's father already waits for us with somethin' to eat
from the pommesbude (is there a word in English like that?). As good
as possible we ate somethin' and finally we got ready for the
concert - put on somethin' and so on. When it was 2:30 PM Kristin's
Dad brought us further Bielefeld.
When we arrived at the
"Stadthalle", there weren't little of people. I think all
in one 60. Nevertheless I ran to McDonald's 'cause I had to go to
toilett (but I didn't found the toilett first...). When I arrived
again Kristin had found a nice place between all the girls. At the
beginning it was all alright. But further 4:00 PM there were
aprox 200 (and more) people and they jostled all the time and you
weren't able to move a bit. When it got later and later it got worse.
Some times I wanted to go out of the crowd to the first-aid
attendants 'cause it was so confined. In the meantime they provided
all the girls with water. Sometimes you can't hardly breath. Finally
at 5:26 PM was the admission. The people were just let in in
different groups 'cause they wanted to avoid a chaos. We were
in the first group but I wasn't able to follow Kristin 'cause all
the people pushed me against a f***in' solid steel barrier. At least
I screamed and cried and so a security-woman had compession for me
that she said to a security-man: "Get the girl out with the
headscarf or she'll get a nervous-breakdown." Finally out of
the crush.
Then I was able to get
into the entrance hall without shoving. But where was Kristin?
Nowhere... I didn't find her and went into the concert hall and
hoped that Kristin will come soon. A few minutes later she came. But
five minutes later the shoving went on and I didn't want
this again. I went backwards and said Kristin that she'd stay there.
Then I stood next to a bigger, more powerful man but it didn't work,
the crush went on. I went backwards again. But there I wasn't able
to see somethin'...
So I went out of the
concert hall and sat down on the stairs 'cause I hoped that I can
get up to the gallery 'cause I had a ticket of the PC69 (there the
concert should be held first) and there are just standings and to
get up on the gallery you had to have a seat-ticket. So I asked the
inspector (who was very goodlookin' ;-) ) if I'm able to went up when the
concert's began and he said "Yes". But then came another
inspector came and said that's not possible but when you've got a
PC69-Ticket you can change them at the box office. So I ran to the
box office and changed my ticket to a gallery-ticket.
Back again I showed the
inspector ver happy my ticket and then I searched a GREAT place. My
place was directly left to the stage. Then I looked down to search
for Kristin but I didn't see her. Suddenly she came from the left
side and had nothing with her. She had to throw her things (rucksack,
jacket) over the barrier.
Then the first
supporter "Freistil" came on stage. They sang five or six
songs (perhaps some more). I think "Freistil" was not so
bad ( I also bought their album two or three days after the concert
(its name is "Alles Ist Neu"))! Then there was a break
aprox five minutes. Then "Bro'Sis" came on stage. They
also sang aprox six songs. After that there was a breack again -
15-20 minutes long. In this time Kristin collected her things. Then
we took out our poster for O-Town. A few seconds later the crowd
looked up to us and stare at our poster (we had the biggest one)...
Then there was the BIG
moment: O-TOWN CAME ON STAGE. The whole crowd screamed. First the
guys sang "All For Love" and after that there were much
more songs (watch underneath). One of them was a very new one, which
rocks (I think it was "American Game", written by Dan and
Jake)! Before that, when not so much girls screamed Kristin and
I cried out loud "Jacob" and he looked up to us and
waved his hand and blinked. He watched at us all in one FIVE times!
Dan also looked at us THREE times but he needed a bit of time to
understand where he had to watch. One time he stared at our poster a
longer time and tried to understand my part of the poster (I think
it wasn't such as easy as I thought first). But I think he had
understand what I meant. Then all the boys sang a solo. First Dan
with the song "Superstitious" (of Stevie Wonder), then Jacob with "Come
Together" (of Michael Jackson!), then Trevor with a countrysong
and "Ms. Jackson", then Ashley with "Name" and
finally Erik with "Purple Rain" (of Prince). Further the end of the
concert Dan's pants hang underneath his botty and you were able to
see his retroshorts (aprox 12 cm) - Da(m)n(ed) SEXY...
I didn't scream - no not me ;-) (don't believe that ;-) ). Suddenly Jake said "Good Night" and the guys went off the
stage. The crowed shouted "Encore! Encore! ...!" And there
they were again and sang three songs: "Liquid Dreams",
then "Every Six Seconds" and for the best "All Or
Nothing". Here
the order of the songs which the boys sang at the concert: 1. All For Love; 2. Take Me Under; 3. Girl; 4.
Baby I Would; 5. We Fit Together; 6. American Game; 7. Sensitive; 8.
Superstitious; 9. Come Together; 10. The Countrysong; 11. Ms.
Jackson; 12. Name; 13. Purple Rain; 14. Sexiest Woman Alive; 15. The
Painter; 16. Shy Girl; 17. Love Should Be A Crime; 18. Liquid Dreams;
19. Every Six Seconds; 20. All Or Nothing. I hope I didn't forget a
song...
All in one it was the
BEST concert I've ever seen! REALLY GREAT! Very sweet was that the
guys also said things in German. And that sounds sooo sweeeeet.
Today (one day after) I'm still at the concert with my thoughts and
scrawl in my exercise books at school... I'll NEVER forget this
concert and will be at least at one concert again, when O-Town's
back in Germany. It was SO wicked!!! And my neck still hurts
'cause I screamed a little bit too much ;-) ... |
