So I wasn't really expecting to get in, and Zane had said he'd get us something signed if he didn't managed to get in.. so I met Debs in the afternoon to get something off her to get her signed.. and we end up getting the train to maida vale together.. so I suggest that if Zane can get anyone in she and Claire should go 'cos they're both massive fans and I'm not really..
So claire is 50mins late and when the que is just going in he comes out and we see him walk down the line looking for someone, (me and debs are coming back from the phonebox after trying to phone claire, again) and he says "you're in luck my friend, I've got you +1 on the guestlist", and I explain how I want claire and debs to go in and how claire isn't even there yet and he says the name on the guestlist is "Mark" so that's no use so I say I'll take Debs 'cos I'm pretty annoyed with claire not turning up when I'd been to so much effort to get us in anyway..
When we get inside we go to speak to Will from Hell Is For Heroes who's also there to see Greenday and seems pretty damn excited, it's cool to see people in bands really excited about seeing other bands, like when me and claire saw guy (reuben) at reading, right after he'd seen the dillinger escape plan..
So half way through American idiot Claire taps me on the shoulder, she's managed to wing her way in somehow.. and Greenday play an awesome set.. if you wanna know the setlist wait for it to be on the radio 'cos I'm crap at that kinda thing..
Afterwards we said thank you to Zane and he got to meet Claire so in the end I don't look like the lying dumbass I was scared I would..
