Saturday morning, me, my friend, my mother and her boyfriend flew to Paris. We arrived at Parc des Princes about 3 o´clock in the afternoon and it took us almost an hour to find the place where we got our tickets and our yellow bracelets (we were on the guestlist). With those bracelets we would have gotten access to every area in the stadium, including backstage. I say "we would have", because the French securities neither allowed us to go to the seating places nor to the standing places at first. They didn´t understand English at all or they didn´t want to understand it. They thought "why do little German girls have bracelets on a French concert, that´s not fair, so we´re just ignoring them". It took us another 1 1/2 hours to finally reach the 1st block in the standing area. There, we stood about 5th row on Georg´s side and we had a great view during the whole concert. There was no pushing going on, because the 1st block was not at all full. We could run around there as we liked. When my mother and her boyfriend entered the stadium through the VIP entrance(much later than me and my friend), they could have gone backstage immediatly, because the securities there were much friendlier. They didn´t do it, because it was too late to pick us up from the standing area and bring us back there in time. The concert itself was probably the best I´ve been to so far. The special effects were great with fire on the stage and big firework at the end. You could see very clearly in what a good mood the guys were in. They played the whole concert in German. One mistake happened: Before Heilig the electricity on stage went out. It was kinda funny the way the guys looked on stage. Fortunatly, it took the crew only a minute or so to switch the electricity back on. On sunday, we did a bus tour through Paris. We also drove by the hotel the guys stayed in. We recognized that on all the girls waiting in front of it. We couln´t wait there as well, because we had to go to the airport a little later.
