The Used London show 5/8-09 <3

So it all started at tuesday night at 1:30 when i got into the car to start my trip to London to see the used. After about 5 and a half hours of driving we reached the airport, by then it was 6 am and my plane wasn't leaving until 9:40. Kind of a long wait but not to bad.
Around 8:20 am i went inside and therefore i was now alone, we all get told that the plane is going to be delayed and that we would get more info around 10 am. So i wait. at 10:30 they say that my plane that is going to take me to london is going to leave Sweden at... 9:45 PM! This means that i'm going to miss the show. I start freaking out and i went out again, my dad got a queue number and we stood therewaiting for our turn to get more info and help. By that time i was crying my eyes out, i didnt think i'd make it to the show at all.
When it was out turn at least we got the SECOND TO LAST plane ticket to London... only problem was that i had to get my ass to another airport... 2 hours away.. so my dad drove me there.
I Texted Jenn who i was supposed to meet a the show and asked her to tell Dan about my delayed plan incase she met him.
When we finally go there it was around 1 pm... by this time i was supposed to be in London already. The plane was gonna leave at 3 pm. so we waited... turned out this plane was delayed aswell.... but only with 40-50 min.
So i waited and got on my plane and arrived around 5:30 pm in london ot something. I got on a train, swiched to underground train and arrived at the venue around 6:20 pm.
When i arrive there i see Jenn and she takes me back behind the venue. She had told Dan about my flight and he said he realy had wanted to see me and asked for me and the shirt and stuff haha <3
When we got to the bus he was on sound check. I was kinda bummed but we went back to the queue. around 18:50, thats 10 min before the doors were opening, i decided that i rather would meet Dan than be in the front line at the show. So I ran back. When i come around the corner i see dan and i walk towards him and im like "dan! :D" and he opens up his arms for a hug and goes "You made it! :D" and i get a hug :D I got some stuff signed, my chucks, a pic and a pic for my friend Amna ( <3333333)
I gave him the shirt i had made for him (which he wore during the show <333) And also 2 photos ive taken and a drawing i made of him... he told me he'd get an eye patch for it cause its missing one eye i told him he better do it haha <3333
So there i was talking to Daniel Fucking Whitesides for about 10-15 minutes.
He had to go to have an interview but he told me to hang out and wait for him cause he'd be back so thats obviously what i did haha.
While waiting for Dan i was standing there looking at them as they had their interviews sitting in the grass on the other side of the road. As i stand there Bert comes walking over and he talks to tehse two chicks infront of me. As he leaves them i say hi to him and he goes "hi :D" and keeps walking haha I decided not to bother him anymore.
After aprox 30-40 min Dan got back to me. There were like me and 3-5 people there with Dan, at times it would just be me and Dan. Dan is seriously the nicest person you could ever meet.
He asked me about my delayed plane and all, i told him the whole story and i also mentioned that i hadnt had any food since 5 am at that time it was about 15 hours ago. He starts telling me to go eat but i couldnt be botehred he was all "i ate 4 hour ago and i starvin'!" haha xD He's such a cutie head that man.
Anyhow in the middle of all of this he takes out his wallet and grabs about 30-40 punds and tried to give them to me so i could go buy food. I mean come one?! thats a shitload of money! I couldnt accept it. He kept telling me to take his money he was all "I cant even use it after tomorrow, take it" but i didnt haha. he kept going on forever about it. I told him i had money and he was all "are you sure?!" "you have money on you?" so when i had convinsed him that i actually had money, but i was not going to buy food anyhow he put his money away. Could he be any sweeter?!!?!?!?
We talked and stuff and i also got to meet Quinn he took a pic with him, Dan took the photo for me :D h gave me the camera and said something like ”you even got Bert in the background” and something about how amazing that made the pic haha. I got Quinn to sign my Jeph pic and the pic for Amna. Dan told Quinn ”This is Anna, i talk to her every day on kyte :D” haha he’s so cute <3
I also got to meet Jeph He signed my pic and went ”ooooooh this is me!!” im like ”haha yeh.. xD” he signed it and i got a photo with him. I asked him for a hug he said ”of course” and hugged me <3333
I got to hang more with Dan and talk a bunch. I told him about that one interview where Jepha is talking about a band.. and it took me forever to figure out that it was swedish. Jepha didnt say the bandname correctly. Its way cute xD. Dan told me i had to tell jepha, but i didnt get the chanse to meet him after that.
Dan tried to say ”vintersorg” the right way but he kinda failed badly( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2Bqq9cjICU ). Cutest thing ever.
So i was pretty much talking to Dan for about 1 hour or so until he had to go warm up. He asked me if i would go outside after the show to see him. I told him i probably wouldnt have the time cause i had to catch my last train back to the air port he asked me when my train left… it was at 11:45, he told me to try to meet him after the show, so he got to say bye to me, but if i couldnt he told me it was ok and that we’d talk on kyte soon again^^ I asked him for a last hug before i left ( i got 3 amazing hugs <3333) he said of course and gave me a big one <3 I was so freaking happy. He said it was ”nice to finally get to meet me” I had an amazing time.
After this i went to the venue to get my ticket (while talking to dan he had asked me if my TICKET was waiting for me at the door, i went ”whaaat?!” he repeated himself… i was all ”ooh yeh haha… i thought you said chicken…”) i got my ticket and i went inside by this time it was around 8:40-ish pm…. I missed a lot of the opening band. I got my way almost to the front row, 1 person infront of me, i decided that was good enough. I was standing on the right side, infront of Jepha next to the speaker xD.
The played a buttload of songs i cant be arsed to write everything ATM, to tired to think. But yeh they played 4 acoustic songs! Yetserdays feelings, Lunacy Fringe, Empty with you(new song <333http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FGNKzN7ZV4 ) and my all time fav song ever ON MY OWN!!!!! It was a really freaking amazing show. Best day of my fucking life. I wish i could have stayed after the show to say bye to Dan. I got to talk to him on kyte on Thursday though, i was online by my phone… He is the best person ever. <3
