How I 'Met' McFLY!

Well, it is a bit of a long story but it's worth it if you wanna know how I became a fan of one of the most amazing bands out there now...it was a journey but it ended up being something quite beautiful!!! Let me tell you this, the first time I saw them...it was in a 2005 issue of POPSTAR! magazine and I looked them and up and down because of their current dress-then and I read the little featurette under their picture and I saw their individual names and band name...I was like, "McFly? That's interesting!" Yet when I said that...it didn't really hold any water because I didn't check them out UNTIL 2 years down the line when I was once an OBSESSIVE fan of the Jonas Brothers--the JoBros had an interview with Shine-On Media and it was one of their first interviews with them and it was in the 1st part of that interview when I heard Nick mention McFly and their song "Transylvania" and I was like, "I remember a band called McFly...weren't they in POPSTAR! magazine?" Which I still have, by the way! But it's somewhere in my closet probably half-torn by now! So I decided to check "Transylvania" out but I barely payed any attention to it, but I did like "Star Girl" which I heard on someone's page...probably one of them Jonas Brothers' fans that I used to talk to 'back in the day'! Back in the day? HAHA ... So I listened to some other songs like "Obviously", "That Girl", I think "5 Colours" but I ain't sure and if it was "5 Colours", it probably was the UK version which I prefer much more! So I was a fan but wasn't HUGELY into them but I did put on my top friends list on one of my sites: 'fancy.litigation' is the name! But in the following year, the Summer of 2008...like in July, I lost my Internet service and my love for the Jonas Brothers slowly started to die and it seems McFly had been erased from my memory as well! When I got my Internet back this year, like...in March I still hadn't put my focus back on McFly because when I logged into my site, the one I mentioned above...I took them off of my tops but I didn't delete them--I just added people that I was interested in at that time! Even in April, when I made my Twitter...I noticed Tom Fletcher had a Twitter as well, but that didn't necessarily hold my interest because I was an avid fan of Family Force 5 and Demi Lovato...if you skip a little ways like when I was on vacation in September, things were bound to change since I wasn't really on the Internet as much when I was in New Jersey and I came back home after 3 weeks of being gone...I didn't have Internet for a short while, one Friday night in October...my Mom bought two DVDs, one called "BRATZ!" and the other "Just My Luck"...I heard of both of them before but it was a bit random that my Mom bought them! I always wanted to see "Just My Luck" so I put that in first, had no clue McFLY was even in there! When I saw them, I started acting like a plain fool! "OMG, that's McFLY!" I got their names mixed up though, I remembered Dougie because I still had that one picture of him in my computer[at that time] but I told my Mom that Tom was Danny and Danny was Tom! Then and there I realized that I loved them MORE than FF5 and that FF5 weren't really a favorite of mine anymore!


I actually left out some details because this blog is way too long already but if you are interested in knowing what I left out, I'll be glad to tell you what I remember! <3>
