I went to a McFly signing in Manchester last year, to accompany my younger sister, as nobody else would! And I admittedly quite enjoyed myself.
It was a signing for their new single at the time "Star Girl" and there were to be 400 free wristbands to go and see it. So my sister, not wanting to miss out, had me stood outside HMV at 6:00am with 700+ easy die-hard McFly fans waiting to get a ticket, bearing in mind at this point that HMV doesn't even open until 8:00am. I felt for the most part like I could easily lose the will to live stood in line but it was rather exciting all the same, and we were lucky enough to get wristbands.
They weren't actually playing until 4:30pm and we had our wristbands by 9:15am, however, my sister, wanting to get to the front of the stage had us sit outside for 6 hours! Which all in all I think added to the experience. Once we were inside and the band came on, everybody went mental (McFly fans are crazily scary!) and I even found myself attempting to sing along to the songs I recognized. I think for McFly fans this was a real treat to get to see them for free. They are really responsive to the audience and spoke to them a lot. I think they played about 5 songs in total. They then went to get ready for the signing which had us waiting until 8:00pm, but my sister got to meet the band and have her picture taken, so she was over the moon. I think they put on a really good show and to have someone who's not even a fan really enjoy herself, they can't be going far wrong. Maybe I'll even get to see someone I like next time!
