Loads of people handed their one item to security, still clutching their other stuff, and Sean just took then and signed them anyway! So give the guard your one item, and give the band anything else you want. There weren't that many people at Brum, signing done in 20 minutes. So it's not gonna keep them there forever.

Oh, Manicbird, we saw the boys leave x

What?! nooooooo! did they wave? did you wait long? x

The day was a bit of a disaster for me, I had planned to sneak out of work to go to it but at 9 this morning my Supervisor text me to say she was coming in with the Area Manager but about 12.45 she text me to say she probably could'nt make it so I was off to join the queue, stood in the queue outside for about hour and 10 minutes, finally gets in the shop then I get a text to say she was on her way in so I had to leave and run back to Evans where I was working, she turns up then buggers off after 10 mins so I ran back to HMV about 2.30 but everyone had gone

We waited probably 5 minutes after you left We walked back round the loading area, back again and saw security. That guy who joined us asked them if the band had left and he said no, but very soon. Couple of minutes later, three silver people-carriers came by. I waved to the first (tinted windows) and saw James in the front seat of the second Was a bit funny really, 'cause as the cars were coming by, security told us not to 'go mad', when there were TWO of us there So we couldn't see James too well, I think we got a nod from him, and Nicky could have had his bum up the window for all we could see. Biggest compliment was security telling us we were the 'only ones smart enough' to find out where they'd be coming from. So you get credit for that!

The Cardiff signing was great. Good queue of people and the band were lovely. Sean apologised when I said I kept on missing him when signing and when I said Lifeblood was my favorite album James looked up and said "ooo your well in the minority there!" Had my picture taken but the flash was on so we all look like ghosts, guess its the Halloween theme, will try and post it up if I know how.
