Name changed because it’s kinda recognizable.

Went to a gig and the singer made eye contact with me!!! I waved. And he waved back!

im 43. My friends are thinking I’m mad, but I’ve told my friends not to worry

My husband (we’ll call him Paul) is in pieces about it

There are a number of reasons I am very confident it will happen 😎

Go on- spill the beans. Are you posh spice and your DH is David Beckham?

or someone less famous?

One of my friends favourite stories from when she was dating her husband was at a Queen concert

In between songs he called out “Freddie, I love you”

Freddie answered “I love you too, and this next songs for you”

When she brings it up, it’s still the happiest moment in his life

FatmanandKnobbin · 17/07/2024 12:15

My son got called a legend by one of his favourite singers and I caught it on video.

Every time he has a drink, his poor girlfriend is subject to the story and the video.

Absolutely made his entire life though.

Also I'm pretty sure Howard Donald and I had a moment when I was seeing Take That recently, but I decided against pursuing it 🤣

JoanCollected · 17/07/2024 12:18

I just simply don’t get the fawning over celebs. It bothers me that people are so easily influenced by others based on so little.

Total killjoy I know. But I don’t get it.

SuzieBishop · 17/07/2024 12:26

Yeeeears ago I went to a JLS concert with my sister because she dragged me - so there was a walkway above the crowd and halfway through the show they were on it above us singing away. Everyone was stood waving but I just sat there not bothered at all.....until Marvin spotted me, waved and I've loved him ever since haha

SuzieBishop · 17/07/2024 12:28

Also just realised you were talking about The National! I was at Edinburgh Castle last week at their gig - amazing!!

lafkfladknguserlp · 17/07/2024 12:29

You know you are deluded here right?

If you are looking at a crowd, if you look slightly above the eyeline towards a section, about 10 people will think you are making eye contact with them!

A person on stage has bright lights at them and really can't distinguish individual faces.

And then theres this: Cringe is the word

It's happened to all of us. You spot someone waving and you get your wave on in reply only to clock you're not being waved at!-----------------------------Be...

@lafkfladknguserlp Oh calm down. Some of us would also think it's cringe to trawl all the way to Youtube to make their point.

LuckySantangelo35 · 17/07/2024 12:39

Your husband just sounds like he was pissed op

As if you’ve brought in material to back up your ‘point’ on a silly/light hearted thread 🤣 try laughing!

KreedKafer · 17/07/2024 10:41

Have you also been drinking ‘all the wine’, because it kind of sounds like that.

Why did you need to add ‘let’s call him Paul’ about your husband? You don’t need to call him anything. You can just say ‘my husband’.

This is peak mumsnet!

Almostneverunreasonable · 17/07/2024 13:32

I was at a horrible histories type thing at a castle once, and the hangman asked me out for a Nando’s as part of the act. Best offer I’d had in a decade. 😄
I’m with you, OP.

ImCamembertTheBigCheese · 17/07/2024 13:34

I'd love that to happen to me OP!😍

Mitsky · 17/07/2024 13:38

My husband looks like a younger slightly more handsome Matt. If he ages up like Matt has I’ll be happy.

Mirrorcat · 17/07/2024 13:46

My daughter swears Taylor Swift looked right at her and waved. I’ve not broken her spell because she’s 8 but surely you know they can’t really see you right?!
