I utterly hated huddersfield tokyo!! What a hideous venue and some snotty staff, altho a few nice ones too. It was waaaaay too packed, the meet and greet was a rushed nightmare and they treated people like cattle compared to other places. But... The boys were well on form, really good show, and they went down a storm. Loved it. When I went in to see them they both pounced and I got a nice sandwich hug. The photographers tried to send the guy behind me in to my pic and I pushed him back going go away I don't want you in my pc! Lol. The boys just laughed . Edward asked where my mates were that I told him at gales I was dragging along, I said at the bar as this was all our idea of a living hell, he was like awwwwwwww. John tried to give me a signed pic and I said, oh I don't need one of thise, save them for the kids, and he stuck his bottom lip out and went but it's from me. So I had to take it after those puppy eyes. Then got chucked out after grabbing kisses and another hug with each and lots of see you tomorrow woohoos. Will the photos be up on their site later? And did anyone get their champagne!?? Leeloo and Claire, lovely to meet you, hopefully we'll have chance to chat properly tonight! Shame about the treatment at the venue. It seems to vary greatly from place to place. Southampton seemed quite calm in comparison. I wish I'd got more hugs. Still, sounds like you made the most of your time with the boys

Not kiddinggggg oh my lord we had like... 20 seconds or something, haha. Except that's probably just what it felt like cos it was all such a blur. XD Edward was asking me something and I have no idea what he said so I was just like "Yeah..." >_< Major failure!! John was apparently fascinated with my friend's cute necklace though, haha. We got nice hugs though, but I don't want to even dare look at the photos! Haha. So good to see them though, even if we were riiiight at the back cos I didn't want to get crushed. ^^' I'm tall though (as tall as the boys with my shoes on, haha) so I had a decent view. Afterwards despite my mortification I kept thinking back to my hug with John and getting a little flutter! <3 ...So tempted to go to Bradford tonight... XD

Huddersfield was AMAZING! Me and Claire got back about half an hour ago. They were just AWESOME!!! But we were very squashed at the front, against the barriers. They came on stage about 1 am, and sang Under Pressure twice, Rock DJ, I'm Your Man, Ghostbusters and Oops!!! It was just so amazing! They're very bouncy in real life, so full of energy! Me and Claire had an amazing view at the front! At the end, Edward jumped down as we had our hands stretched out, and he came and took my hand and held it for a few seconds, but a load of girls went to grab him so security pulled him back. Meet and greet, I went in with Helen. John gave me a huge hug, then Edward asked me something...I think he thought he knew me, as he was going on about me wearing a coat with buttons and being with 4 other people. TBH, his accent was quite difficult to follow as he was talking fast, so I just said "Yes!!" He was so sweet, and NOT camp at all!! They both remarked that they'd seen me at the front! John put his arm around me for the photo, but was still talking too....I told him I'd done a video and he asked where it was, I said on YouTube then remembered I was supposed to be looking at the camera!! I then told him we were seeing him in Bradford too, tomorrow, and he said "Cool!" Then he asked my name, so I said "Julie". He then saw my 'I ♥ Jedward' badge, and said: "I love Jedward....heeyyyyy!". Then the security bloke was trying to hurry me along, so I went to leave, John hugged me and gave me a BIG kiss on my cheek, and he didn't have to! They are just so wonderful, beautiful and sweet boys!!!!! I am BUZZING!!!!! I LOVE JOHN ♥ Oh thanks for this leeloo (and akka for your report too) So glad you eventually got to see them in the flesh leeloo. Was it what you expected ? Was one more talkative/huggy/quiet/shy/hyper etc etc than the other ? You're great at writing long posts leeloo can we squeeze any other information out of you ?? And please has anyone videos of middlesbrough or huddersfield or the earlier one yesterday ??

Awwww Leeloo I'm so, so, so happy that you finally had the chance to meet them. It sounded like they were just lovely which isn't surprising. So are they as pretty in real life? What were they wearing? How did you feel about being a bit*ahem* older than the normal demographic?

i'm so glad leeloo got to meet them, i love watching how happy they make people! Hope I didn't come across as ungrateful slagging the venue off etc, I know I'm super lucky to be able to see them lots of times and always have a blast cos of the boys. I just felt shit for those fans meeting then the first time who hardly got any time to talk to them. And these were the most expensive tickets so far, grr. But I'm glad you still had an awesome time leeloo. I don't know if you felt the same as me, but when you're anywhere on planet jedward, age just doesn't matter. The boys treat everyone the same, and you suddenly feel 16 again. To anyone a bit nervous about going... Take a breath and do it, the boys will be lovely to you, go see them on these last few dates before the xfactor tour whilst they're still accessible and you can meet them easily!

Hey guys! Couldn't sleep last night, I was on a complete high!
I was with John mostly as Helen was with Edward, but Edward was asking me something and I didn't quite catch what he was saying, so just said "Yeah!" When they look into your eyes and talk to you, your heart melts!
When close to them, they smelt a bit sweaty and manly, as they'd been jumping around on stage!
They are stunning and pretty in real life....I wondered whether they'd look really similar, but they are the same as in photos, and it was easy to tell them apart.
They aren't very tall, but taller than me! They are just so friendly and sweet! They make you feel so relaxed! John put out his arms and smiled as I walked up to him.
I didn't feel out of place, being a bit older! There were others there who were a similar age!
Edward was very chatty! He talks so much! But John also talked to me a lot, or as much as was possible given the time restriction. They are incredibly energetic on stage! We had such an fantastic view from the front.
When I turned to leave John he grabbed me and gave me a massive kiss on my cheek....he didn't have to, I just thought I might get another hug. He felt lovely..I will never forget it ♥
OMG, they are just so amazing!

They had their black suits and ties on again, forgot to mention that. Edward's hair was ever so slightly leaning rather than straight up too I think.

Do they talk much on stage between the songs ?- the vids never really show those parts . Do they interact well with each other on the stage ? Any anything else *sits up and begs* !!!! ;D

Even if it's a small detail, we lap it up!... ;D

thanks for the extra details leeloo and akka69!! It's great for us who haven't seen them (yet!) to get all these extra bits as it almost feels like we've met them too. Nice to hear there are a few more mature ladies there too, in case I do go!
OMG I can't imagine getting kissed by them like that without fainting. I would never wash my cheek again ;D

I'm so up for that! I hope they announce more gigs while the xf tour's on. Absolutely! We can have a massive Genius convention and all get together. Oh I do hope they perform at a festival in the summer. It would be so great! Yes, that sounds like a brilliant idea! I haven't seen them yet as none of my friends will travel to see them.
