I've Lost My Fear Of Falling

We waited around the back of the venue It began with around 50 people waiting…and by each minute everyone started to leave as it became colder and later.

The stars are blazing
like rebel diamonds
cut out of the sun.

Soon there was only a few left. I talked to a few people ; one of which I'm positive was an ebay-er, which sucked. I put my arms around the fence and waited. Louis XIV came out but just went in the car after hanging around for a bit. The roadies hung around forever; which reminded me of 'The Truck Diversion" from MCR back in January. I didn't think they'd come out, which would be okay I thought, the show was so spectacular I was completely satisfied. I had brought my favourite killers song single, All These Things That I've Done incase they would maybe come out quickly to sign stuff. Ronnie's dad told us they'd come out, so I tried to make myself as decent as I could haha. We waited; and finally.

Ronnie came out! Woo!

"Hey everyone, I'm Ronnie". LOL I thought "No shit Ronnie".

He talked to the crowd. He talked to everyone about how cool Australia was, and how he wants to live here. And then he asked us what's cooler NZ or AUS and we said Aus. Then he started talking about sheep. Then he came around to individuals.

So, I was pretty much shitting myself. When he came up to me he was so nice! I thanked him for the show and his general awesome-ness and he thanked me and everything. Then we talked about him playing guitar that night. He didn't think he was good.But yes..more talking about guitar and he signed my CD and said byee and thanks. Haha he reeked of alcohol, he is the coolest person ever. Then Ronnie invited us to the TRASH Afterparty. Which of course, I couldnt go to due to stupid age and late-ness. But I was like *hyperventalites* I got invited to the afterparty.

*elle is dead*

"oh this isn't alcohol…its apple juice".

Then Ronnie introduced us to The Killers manager and Ronnie's Dad. Haha Ronnie's Dad is so funny. They were nice.

Then. Dave came out! Holyshit, he's tall. I don't know if its just his fro or what but damn. Tall. He was wearing the coolest jacket; all sparkly and stuff. Just before he got to me, someone accidently spat in his face, so he was like all pissed off. Aww. So when he got to me I thanked him and told him the show was fantastic signed the cover of my ATTID cd.

After a while later, someone came out of the other door. We all started yelling "We're In Heaven". And he laughed and came over.

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus,

But he talks like a gentleman,

Like you imagined

When you were young.

It was Brandon Flowers.

He bowed and waved to everyone. Saying hi to everyone in general. Then he went up to individuals.

Just before he came to me I dropped my ticket near him lol.

And he was wearing a t-shirt by the way. Yes, Brandon Flowers, King of suits, cowboy style and vests. Skin-conscious Brandon Flowers…wearing a t-shirt, *fangirls*. He looked really tiny.

So he came up to me and said hey.

I was freaking out on the inside, I love this man with everything I have. Right then I told him everything I've wanted to tell him for the past 3 and a half years. He was so lovely. When you're talking to him , he looks you dead in the eyes. Meanwhile he signed my album. He thanked me, and then moved on to Kate! Then I started worrying I'd fangirled too much haha. But I had to say that. It was important he knew.

Brandon Flowers.

Then afterwads thje boys had to go to take photos inside. Ronnie came past and I hi-fived him haha.

 Brandon went down the line again. You know in the movies were two people are holding hands tightly and looking at each other and then they break and the fingers slowly unloop each other. Haha that's sounds so corny –but that's exactly what happened. It was amazing.

Hahaha Ronnie went inside then jumped back out and thumbs up-ed everyone.

Afterwards they left in the car.

I could not believe it. it was magical. Epic win.

The night couldn't of been more perfect.

We left. I cried. I laughed.

And we went home.

I could sleep knowing I'd let some of my heroes how much they mean.

I want to show you, how much I care.

xoep.
