ELLIOTMINORELLIOTMINORELLIOTMINOR



Me and ED


Me and ALI




Me and TEDDY




Me and DAN




Me and ALEX!!




I never really understood what that felt like. I cant explain how i feel right now because i truly dont think any words could describe it. To have followed someone, from your own hometown, since the very beginning 2 years ago, and know when they got signed and when their first album was recorded, and then to see them LIVE in their own hometown is amazing enough. But to actually meet them, to hug them, to be talking to them, for them to sign your shoes!!, is out of this world.


I remember the first time I saw them. We were stood near their tour bus and then out came Alex Ed and Ali who just walked straight past us. Alex was in his pyjamas! They were within metres of us. Butterflies were raging inside me and i was literally frozen to the spot. I decided I HAD to meet them.


The first one I met was Teddy. He was stood near the bus later on in the afternoon, and he signed my shoe. i remember exactly what i said "excuse me, this may sound a bit strange but please can you sign my shoe?" he just went "yeah, sure" and got down ON THE GROUND AND SIGNED MY SHOE!! gosh gosh gosh. throughout the day i got the rest of the autographs and signatures, i waited backstage for eds and alis. oh my god oh my god i get butterflies thinking of it now. and then when they performed... WOW.
You know, their lyrics are beautiful. Have you actually ever listened to a song? Like really listen, let the music take you over. I can do that with every one of their songs. Alex has such a hauntingly beautiful voice...not easy to achieve. Their music stirs something inside me i didnt know was there until i heard them. Right now i want to meet them again so much it hurts, but what can i do eh? i cant wait until their new tour after this summer one. oh my gosh i love them.
you know what? this one girl once actually had a go at me when she found out i liked elliot minor. apparently im not emo enough. and you know what? that shows how pathetic one person can be. i am aware that i dont look like your typical rocky emo style type fan. and im not entirely, i mean i adore enrique and jason mraz. but who cares? im sure they themselves arent complaning about what theitr fans look like. in fact, i know that definitely because they didnt refuse to have a photo with me did they? no, they were lovely and friendly and amazing. i showed alex to the beer tent! and the thing i still cant believe actually could happen to me is that alex looked at me 3 TIMES when he was singing. actually looked deeply, intensely into my eyes for like 2 whole lines each time. i couldnt believe my luck. i was only 2 lines back from the stage. in those few moments i felt on top of the world, i felt as if anything was possible.i was elated in every way possible, clinging onto those few seconds, ones i will never ever forget in my entire life. oh yeah ill still have my band shirt on in my 90s haha lol.
i could talk about this forever but i seriously do not know how to describe how much i love them. i mean ive seen all of their webisodes and video blogs i dont know how many times but now ive decided to watch them all again from scratch. they are seriously so funny! i mean it just shows theyre all normal lads in their 20s from york, all pretty well spoken and majorly talented. i could have walked past them in the street! i love how their songs have the team of emo rock and classical to create that unique sound which only they could achieve. and their image.
my gosh my gosh
i think im gonna go watch one of their blogs now. guys, i seriously couldnt feel any better at this moment in time. i am the luckiest girl alive.
