Weston-super-mare let me hear you scream...

AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Yeh I did that a lot yesterday at T4 on the beach! I'm surprised I haven't lost my voice. It was a really good day so I'm going to tell you about it...

I got up at 6am on a Sunday morning, oh my goodness that was early. Then got on the first bus of the morning which got me into town way too early to meet my friend Steph so I tried to find every single newsagents I could think of that would be open to buy a disposable camera (they were either shut r didn't sell them!). Then me and Steph went to Temple Meads train station to meet a couple of her works mates Emma and Emily. It seemed like everyone from Bristol going had the same idea of catching the train. The station was just packed out full of teenagers! We managed to get on the train but it was so packed out we had to stand but Weston isn't that far anyway.

So when we got into Weston we just followed the crowd, there's always somebody who knows where the entrance is! It was set-up so that behind Tropicana was the satge facing the stretch of the beach and going up onto the grass was little stores selling merchandise and they had a couple of fairground rides too. All of that stuff pretty much blocked out anything that was happening on the beach so no one could really sneak a look in! The 'doors' didn't open until 11 so there was just a massive crowd of people just waiting on the sand. We were right at the back and I kept looking behind hoping to see loads of people arriving but it didn't happen so I was getting all depressed thinking we were gonna be at the back the whole time! Then the doors opened and once they'd checked our bags for glass and bombs and took our ticket we were in and there was soooo much more room than what I thought there would be from waiting to get in! We just ran for it, it was so exciting!

Vernon Kaye and the other presenters didn't come on stage until later which is when I guess they aired it on TV. But they had warm-up acts to keep us entertained. My favourite from that was The All American Rejects, they rock! The Automatic were part of the warm-up too and they just make me laugh cos they have that guy who sings really high/screachy! Inbetween the acts there was this guy who kept coming on stage and telling us to scream for the cameras, I suppose it was so they could get some good shots for the programme. You forget that you're there for television so when they say stuff like that it was like oh yeh, they want this to look really amazing to the people watching, bit fake really!

So then the presenters came on and Vernon Kaye kept taking pictures of us. And of course there were the main acts and I think the only one who didn't sing live was Orson because apparently he had a bad throat. I liked pretty much all them except for Ne-yo (I wasn't really listening to him to be fair cos we were trying to find somebody in the crowd at that point!), Busta Rhymes and The Petshop Boys, I hated that one, sat down, really wasn't my thing oh and Danni Minogue was a bit boring too!! The others however, even the poppy ones were really good: The Zutons, Hard-fi, Orson, Razorlight, Pussy cat dolls, Will Young, McFly, Simon Webbe, The Feeling, Basement Jaxx, The Ordinary Boys, Embrace, Shayne Ward (the X-Facotr winner lol!) and... the best of all... FEEDER!!! Wow, they were good, amazing infact. They were the only ones where everyone went crazy! They sang my favourite song too, Buck Rodgers, I loved it!!! Some of the bands after they finished just chucked their guitars on the stage- no respect for musical instruments! Although one band, can't remember who actually handed somebody right at the front their guitar!!!

Me and Steph ended up at different places throughout the day and at one point we were by this white tent. Then we realised it was the VIP tent and Steph suddenly shouted 'It's Jade Goody!!!' even though she's not a massive celeb it was still quite strange to see her quite close to us. Then we saw some other channel four actors and some guys from Hollyoaks too- OB awww how cute is he for anyone who watches Hollyaks!

At the end we could see Vernon & co. in the green room which was next to the stage and he started to strip at the window, that was quite funny! I've got to say though, it's quite bizarre actually being there cos when you look around you see lots of people just standing around not really doing much. I guess thats because there's so many different acts people have come to see different things. I think to really get into the atmosphere you have to be in the golden circle which is right at the front by the stage and I don't even know how they get tickets!

I was going to leave you with a picture of the crowd but I don't have one so you'll just have to look at the website instead on your good computer cos on mine it won't show up!
