The Hopefuls discussion

Hello everyone!
So I realize that since Tom is Carries brother all of you should know and like Mcfly, but I was just wondering how long any of you have liked/loved Mcfly, how you got to know who they are, or anything along those lines! :)

I've loved them since day one. I got to know them more when I joined twitter about 4 or 5 years ago. I went to a book signing when they brought out Unsaid Things and they all seemed really lovely. I've only been to 4 of their concerts as I have to go alone and before 2012 I didn't have the confidence to do so :)

I've loved them for almost half my life, since Just My Luck lol. I saw it and was like "okay who are these people I'm in love". I think I'd be bawling the entire time if I ever saw McFly live because of the amount of build up and anticipation there will be hahah xD I remember when I couldn't get tickets to one of their shows at The Roxy, I locked myself in the bathroom and cried for like 30 minutes lmao

I have loved Mcfly since I was little! It is sad how many of their songs I know the words too! And last month I went to see McBusted! My two favourite bands! It was brilliant! !!!!!! xx

I've been a McFly fan since about the time ATN came out. That was actually quite a while ago, wow! Not only do I love their music, but I've also made quite a few friends through them! I have yet to actually see them and I will literally do anything to see them live/meet them. Trying to get tickets for their show in NY was one of the most stressful times of my life. I pretty much cried myself to sleep after it sold out the second time and I didn't get tickets. They're my favorite band (along with All Time Low) and I just don't understand why they never broke the US...

I've loved McFly for years! I saw them when they supported Busted on tour in 2004. Now I mainly like them for nostalgic reasons

I remember 5 colours in her hair coming out but it was't until a few years later that two of my friends got me into them. They subsequently started liking other music so aren't as big a fans of McFly as they used to be. I then remember listening to Radio:Active and thinking at the time that it's too rocky and strange and I didn't like it - now it's my favourite album of there's. It's weird how things change. Anyway, I then became a major fan in about 2010 but never got the chance to see them because I didn't have anyone to go with :( Until I went to university and met someone who loves them just as much as I do! Now, I've seen them at the Royal Albert Hall and went to McBusted at the O2!

I think they are quite underrated because they are seen as really cheesy poppy boy band but I disagree with this. They play instruments, they write songs, they can actually sing and are just generally awesome! I could talk for days about them but I'll stop now :)

I had found "Love is easy" and didn't realize it was McFly, then one day long after I got obsessed with it I came to my senses and fsdksg idk I love McFly! They're so unique and charming

Mcfly never really broke into Canada, so I only found out about them last summer. I went to see Les Mis, where I found out about Carrie and her Youtube channel, and after watching her videos, I found Mcfly and fell in love. I found Love is easy first, and was hooked. I now have all their albums and their book. There music is amazing, and they seem like such fun people. I'd love to meet them one day! I'd also love to see them live but it's probably not going to happen for a while unless they come to Canada or I get to go back to London to see them. I watched the live stream of the 10th anniversary concert, but that's not really the same. But anyways, I love Mcfly so much!!!!!!!!

Yeah, my mum got me a McFly album a while ago, like when radio active had just come out, and I only actually downloaded it to my ipod at the start of last year and bow I want to get all the disks.!!!

I adore Mcfly!! I have loved them since the beginning, but really got into them at christmas! I just love them all! Also (this isn't to do with mcfly), JAMES BOURNE FOLLOWED ME YESTERDAY!!

I first heard McFly when Busted where around (they are my all time favorites) and Mcfly supported them. But I really got into them around the time of Motion in the Ocean, after Busted broke up.

I love McFly so much! I got into them in about 2011 and havent looked back since, music wise. I have been to the Memory Lane tour, the second 10th anniversary show at the Royal Albert Hall and have been to two McBusted concerts, being in the OMFG Zone both times! Honestly, their concerts have pretty much been the best nights of my life. The OMFG Zone experiences being on top because I got to interact with them all, having high fives from them, etc. Tom even has a bracelet of mine, which truly made my year!! So, basically I LOVE them and want to meet them SO badly just so I can tell them how much I appreciate them!

I have loved McFly since I was about 3 (11 years) and I actually discovered Carrie through them!

I've loved McFly (and now McBusted as well) for like half a year. I know that's pretty short, but yeah... I found out about them through One D, cause they wrote some songs together, and through Carrie (of course)

I like McFly since I was in year seven, so I guess 5 years... And I know McFly because a friend of mine showed me some songs and I really enjoyed. I know Tom's sister and I knew she had a channel on youtube but at that time I barely used to go to my computer. At the end of 2013 I think, I started using more youtube and Carrie's channel was the first channel I ever subscribe. I love her videos, she's such an inspiration to me! And I love McFly, they are my favorite band of all time! Plus, I also like Giovanna's books

I grew up with McFly :) I became I bigger fan a few years ago when I started watching Carrie's videos and realised that her and Tom were related. I may be slightly obsessed with Tom, Gi and Carrie's videos now... :D x

I like most people grew up with them, I used to idolise them, now however with there recent tour, I've noticed there just money grabbing which I really don't feel comfortable with, some fans have said they feel left behind because they can't afford tickets to there concerts and all the other stuff that comes with it :/

I've been a fan since day one of hearing busted, I loved Busted and James has always been my favourite, I cried when they split up but I loved Mcfly just as much and have been to a few of their concerts. I haven't been to any of their concerts recently so was very excited to hear about the Mcbusted new tour and I'm in fact going twice to both Birmingham shows.

I became a fan after watching Tom's wedding speech. The songs he sang were really catchy so I looked up the original versions and fell in love! I have been obsessed with Mcfly/McBusted ever since.

I feel kind of bad saying this, but I've probably only been obsessed since about Christmas? (but when i say obsessed I mean obsessed...) But I've always loved them, and my first ever CD was Room on the Third Floor :)

I only got into McFly when I started watching Tom, so whenever Dear Tom/Carrie started. But I'm just obsessed now.

I've been a fan for about 10 years are so. I got to know them through a friend who was obsessed.

I am a really new fan. I'm from America so I had no idea about McFly until I watched Teens React (I think that's who is was) to Tom's wedding speech. Since then I was and still am hooked. I adore the Fletcher family so much and love watching all their videos. McFly and even McBusted have produced some of my favorite music!!!
