I was front row at their first solo UK concert in Cardiff last night. I had seen them in London last year when they opened for Barry Mannilow and they didn't disappoint. The show was absolutely awesome and the band did a meet and greet afterwards. I even managed to get a kiss and hug from both Mike and Gerome and got my photo taken with Mike. I took along some friends who weren't quite sure what to expect but they are totally converted to SNC fans. Hope that it was the start of many more UK tours to come.

Works for me, @Claire Toote UK!! While we miss them like crazy, it is awesome to share the Chaser Love with the UK, and for me, the world, so long as they have great musical taste, and know a very Good "thing" when they see/hear it!!!! ...just one Chaser's viewpoint!
The photos and videos are so much appreciated, as are the reviews, and personal "shares"!! We love those details!!
*insert musical notes here* ...I can't get enough of their love...!
I'm hoping that you ladies won't mind sharing them with us UK fans a bit more often now, especially if we promise to keep you informed of what they're doing when they are over here and to keep you supplied with photos so you don't have to suffer too badly with withdrawal symtoms.
Claire.... so glad to hear that you enjoyed yourself at the concert. And I am glad to hear that you were able to get tickets to the last show. Please let our guys know that they are missed over on this side of the pond! Can't wait to see your pictures... and btw, I am officially jealous of you!
Claire, your story below is too cute! Although, now I'm jealous!! I was front row and 4th row in Nov. and Dec. and couldn't get the "permagrin" off my face as I clapped, yelled, sang, danced in my chair,heckled, etc,..(made a fool of myself!) Did I get a kiss or hug from Mike? NO! I did not! What did I get? Well, as I started past him down the line he made the comment: "You know you really need to enjoy yourself more at our concerts!"!! I was shocked, then busted out into a belly laugh!! (Not everyone can get away with teasing me!) Then one of the other fellows said "Yeah I saw her bopping around in her chair!" I was half embarrassed, and half transparent ("Yeah, that's me!") and half (well that's really a third) I can't believe he just said that to me! It really made my concert experience over the top!! Next time, I'm gonna try for the hug and kiss!!! (kidding! I might faint!) After the concerts I find myself floating on, what I have come to refer to as: "Cloud 10" (higher than cloud 9, and there are 10 men in SNC!)...and that sure does sound like Rome!!
I can't wait to see your pictures and hear of your next concert experience! Don't be surprised if they remember you!! (Sure wish we could go to a concert together!!!)
Aaaaaww great story! These guys can charm everyone!
Yay!!! We can't wait to see them!! Have fun and tell our boys we miss them!! :)
Yay!!!! That's fantastic!! You're going to have such fun!
I've done it ladies, I've bought tickets to also go along to their last concert in the UK. 3 hours away is definitely not to far to go as they are so worth the travel. I'll take my camera to get some shots to post on here. So excited to see them again.
I've uploaded the photo to my profile ladies for you to all drool over, it's only fair to share afterall. I have a copy on my fridge door and when my kids asked who it was with me, I told them it's their future Step Father (aka Mike) lol. Well a girl can dream can't she. Enjoy the photo girls. x
Wow, Claire - 2 kisses! Lucky you! I've decided I'm going in for a hug from someone at my next show. :)
Oh, wow! That is so great!! I've made it my mission to try and give Mike a kiss, but you've gone above and beyond by getting one from him! :) I definitely say going three hours away to see them is more than worth it!
Claire, you are too funny, and you are SO much like the rest of us Chasers!! The guys have that affect on all of us (floating on clouds for days!). So happy that you posted about the show! Oh, and if you are curious, the answer is "no," three hours is not out of the question when considering seeing another show! Have fun!
That's great! I think I'm jealous!
Ha ha ha ha! What a great story/memory Claire! I'm so glad to hear you had so much fun! Aren't they wonderful?! Your message below was great...couldn't help but smile away! :)
Hi Maria/Karen/Gayle/Nesa
It was fab. I'm still floating on clouds today. Nesa to answer your question, I think it helped that I was in the front row and was singing and dancing along with the songs and blew a couple of kisses to Mike (he even made a point to catch one of them and wink back) when I got to the front of the queue to meet them and get their autographs, I blew him another kiss and he just stood up and said that he'd really enjoyed having us in the front row and just gave me a big hug and kiss and Jerome said it wasn't fair and he wanted one too, so who was I to refuse. It was such a great experience, I'm even looking to get tickets for another of their UK shows which is about 3 hours from me (but I say they are definitely worth the trip).
Yay!!! So glad to hear that!! :D I'm so proud of my boys!!! And, yes! You must put the picture up here!!
So glad to hear the guys are creating some good memories for people across the pond! :) Way to go boys!
Glad you posted this and that you enjoyed the show and the Meet and Greet! I hope you will post your picture with Mike here on the site for those of us Chasers who are missing them!! Congrats also, on converting some new Chasers!!
Wow! So lucky to get a hug and kiss from both guys!! :D How'd you go about asking them? I would've melted and not been able to ask lol I'm so glad you a great time!!
