WIN FIRST 2 TICKETS TO OUR FIRST IRISH SHOW
Plus Westlife goodie packs


Hi Nicky here,

TODAY the lads here in Westlife are giving you the chance to win a collector's item - the first two tickets, No I and No 2, for the first of our two shows at Dublin's Point Depot next March 19 and 20.

It's an opportunity for you to get your tickets BEFORE they go on sale next Saturday. And your special tickets will be accompanied by two Westlife goodie packs, with lots of our stuff in them.

We promise you that the shows are going to be really spectacular and, to be honest, we can't wait for them ourselves.

Spectacular
Any group will tell you that the biggest thrill of all is taking your very first show home. We may have to wait almost a year, but we'll be counting down the days, weeks and months.

In the meantime, we'll be planning the spectacular, coming up with lots of ideas to make it a sound and vision experience you'll never forget.

We've never done a full-length show here and we'll be just as thrilled as the fans when the big night arrives.

It will be a proud moment for us as we'll have all our families there for the big event as well. It doesn't get much better than that!

To be in with a chance of winning the tickets and goodie packs, all you have to do is phone 1550 123 888 and answer three simple questions.

Winners will be chosen at random by computer. Contest closes at midnight on Wednesday. Calls cost 58p per mm (inc VAT). An Indo-Com Service, 3050 Lake Drive, Citywest, Digital Park, Co Dublin.

THlS has been a mad, mad week for Westlife. We had to fly out to Los Angeles at the weekend to do some more work on the American video for Swear It Again.

As soon as that was finished we were back on a plane again heading to the UK to pick up where we left off doing TV, radio and record store signings for the promotion of Fool Again.

Talk about heart-stopping stuff, we're holding our collective breath at the moment, as today is the big day in the UK charts. We won't know until this after-noon whether or not we've created pop history by making it five-in-a-row.

SHANE is my favourite Westlife boy. He's gorgeous. He has lovely brown eyes and lovely hair. He sings brilliantly as well. I have about 20 posters of Shane in my bedroom Every night I take out my Walkman and listen to Westlife. At the same time, I gaze at lovely Shane all over the walls in my bedroom. I would climb Mount Everest to meet Shane.. .and the other lads too. I had a lovely dream one time where I bumped my head into a lamp-pole and Shane saved me. It would be a dream come true to have this letter printed in the Sunday World to let Shane know how much I love him.

DEAR Westlife. I am getting your video for my birthday this month. I'm going to your next concert. You're my favourite band. My favourite song is If I Let You Go. And I like Bryan.
Lisa Reynolds, Oldcas-tle, Co Meath.

I THINK you're all so gorgeous, especially Shane. I read your column every Sunday and last week I thought it was really interesting. I cut out the picture of Shane and put it on my wall. Good luck in America and lots of love.
Debbie Gill, Enfield, Co Meath.

I THINK Westlife are brilliant and I'm your number one fan. My favourite ember is Kian. When I heard 5ive slagging you off I felt so angry. I couldn't believe it. Good luck in America.
Michelle Egan, Ennisty-mon, Co Glare.

MY dream is to meet Westlife and see you in concert. I think you are the best. I think Shane and Kian are the finest things on earth.
Melissa Cowman, Enniscorthy, Co Wexford.

WHEN I saw that you had a column in the Sunday World I was thrilled. No can read about my favourite band EVERY week. I wish I lived in Dublin or Sligo so that I could be near to you.
Martina Griffin, Listowel, Co Kerry.
