Andrea in the picture at the bottom

Poor souls! They'll be so sick of those songs by the end of the tour they'll never want to sing them again.
Is anyone in our group going to Ireland for the early shows?
Go Andrea!

As usual I see Fleur is in the centre of all the pics with Andrea in the corner... Anyway nice to see some pics of the rehearsals! I shouldn't be bitter! It does seem to be the case that Andrea fans also like Lauren and Paul, and Fleur?...well not so much (although it was Simon's manipulation that was the problem really).

Also welcome Drek20x you are now a Fanstini

They will probably be sick of them, but at least they will all deliver their best versions of those songs since they will be singing them every day for almost 2 months. I can't wait to hear them on youtube . I consider every tour show to be practice for the next one.


Haha thanks, it feels good to be a Platter and a Fanstini, I like that!

The Red Headed Menace has posted videos of Andrea watching Gogglebox. He looks amazed and delighted that people love him. The Menace has done us all a great favour. I think she must be a professional. It was lovely to see the way Dermot looked after him. Everybody who meets Andrea seems to be a real fan. Go Andrea!

I have a new game now, Jessika. I send him a message every day. Today, I got my second favourite. Thanks to you.

That's great! He must like your tweets as he manages his own account Actually Red Headed Menace is a friend of mine from another forum - she does the pics of Andrea for fun and also does poster type stuff. A fair bit of her stuff is on my Andrea Fan Club website - have a look at the artwork page and also the photos page https://www.andreafaustini.club I hope she won't mind me saying, she is actually a grandmother who lives in Canada but loves Andrea...

Gosh! That's impressive. She's very talented and so kind to help get Andrea established. It's a testament to his personality that so many people have dedicated their time and effort to help him. The AF Clubsite is a credit to all of you who have helped set it up. I hope Andrea will benefit and land a really worthwhile contract despite all the adversity he has endured. It's an honour to be a member of this team.

I love the artwork and photos.

Only 3 days guys!!

Apparently the last dress rehearsal was today so I guess they're all gearing up for the real thing on Friday now! Andrea must be so excited! Just knowing that he's going to be performing for thousands of people soon is making me so happy and proud. Seriously can't wait to see videos.

Apparently they are all in a hotel in Manchester now...

Anyone going to the first Belfast show?

Unfortunately not
When the tickets went on sale I had no idea so I missed my chance. Keep living in hope that somebody is selling their's because they can't go...... wishful thinking

There was an account on twitter who were helping people get tickets - @TXFTour2015. Might be worth a try? And there were also some tickets for X Factor Tour generally on http://www.axs.com/uk and ticketmaster. Good luck

Thanks for the link Jessika_Kenlea
I'm going to The Kremlin on Saturday night so if I don't get tickets at least I'll see Andrea there

Didn't think they'd be heading to Belfast so early, I'm sure they could all be doing with a break before the tour kicks off. I'm working in Belfast tomorrow, what are the chances of bumping into any of them lol

Good luck, Sammi. I hope you get your wish to see Andrea. Please report back if you do. I hope he's happy.

Fingers crossed for you Sammi hope you have a great night Saturday

Have a great time at Kremlin! Spending Valentines day with Andrea - what could be better

Back to Lanvin (just for the show, then back to Primark &#128514 #thexfactortour

A bit of a contrast - Lanvin's and Primark

Mentioned on the Lauren Platt thread that Lauren and Andrea should release a single together haha

So here is my single name ideas:

Stop the Bus!
Dodging Simon's Push
Anti Manipulation
I wont play Simon Says

I had to wait in my car for an hour and a half in complete boredom earlier for my grandma to finish her errands (never.....again!), so thanks, for some reason those name ideas brought a smile on my face and lightened my day up a bit and it made me ask myself what Simon would think

And good luck Sammi. If I was in the same town as the contestants I would most likely track them down just to maybe get a chance to meet Andrea and most of all Lauren.

Teach your Granny to use the computer. She'll love it. I bless the people who show me the way. I have now started tweeting Andrea and I have two followers. Not a clue what to do about them but I don't do anything that's not safe. 4 tweets, 4 favourites! Wow!
Your Granny will love you even more if you show her the ropes!

You are doing very well Hilda!!! Andrea seems to love your tweets

Thanks, Delz. I'm like a kid with a new toy. When you're housebound you need a little bit of entertainment.
A lot of old folk .are afraid of computers because they read so much about fraud. I've had one or two bad experiences but if I have any doubts, I talk to my family. Grandchildren are absolutely wonderful at teaching grandparents. It's payback for all the time I spent teaching them when they were young. It's role reversal.
Are you going to any of the shows? It would be my dream.

Thanks everyone, I'm so excited for it Can't think of a better way to spend valentines day

Sammi, if you speak to Andrea would you ask him what he thinks about the website. I would be interested to know because it's the best I have ever seen for an X Factor contestant. A huge amount of love and effort has gone into it. It's a fantastic marketing tool for him and a great asset in selling himself to record companies. Have a lovely time. I hope you have a very romantic Valentine's day.
