FAITH AND DEVOTION IN THE SO-CALLED KEY OF SPACE

Is this thing on?… Testing, 1, 2, 3. Testing.

Ok (thumbs up), all good.

Well, where do I start?

Some of you may know me, some may not; some may know me personally, some only virtually (although I do promise that I do exist and I’m not a robot, according to all my CAPTCHA tests so far). Well, either way, you at least know my name ‘cause it’s written on this page, on the URL that bears my name and even written on my profile picture of Facebook (a social media that used to exist in the early 21st century and had almost engulfed the entire internet, in case you’re reading this in the distant future 10 years from now). But I will leave introductions for later because the story is more importante than the storyteller, even though the storyteller is part of it.

Back to my question from the first paragraph, I guess I can start with an email I got on the evening of Mar 16th, 2017. Yes, two years ago. It was a breathtaking message I wasn’t expecting to receive at all. In fact, I nearly left to read it the next day, because I wasn’t on my computer all day and I set up my devices to not notify me of emails all the time, but only when I open the mail app. Except for the computer. It was already early evening when I went to check something which I don’t even remember what it was anymore (it was not porn, I swear). The email notification showed up and once I started reading the first lines of that email, my heart started beating faster. I had to read it a zillion times because some strong catch words would draw my entire attention and I couldn’t finish reading it properly. It was like speed reading, except I couldn’t focus on the entire message only on the words: DEPECHE MODE, GUEST OF THE BAND, ALBUM LAUNCH CONCERT, FAN TAKEOVER.

Once I was on tranquilizers, I started to read it calmly. For privacy and contractual reasons, I won’t copy-paste the email, nor name anyone else other than those who agreed being mentioned here and the celebrities involved.

Since today marks the 2nd anniversary of when my Facebook Takeover took place and I became a takeoveree (thank you, Jenna, for the great name), I decided to launch this website which will go into some details, backstage stories, a lot about what happened since then and a few surprises that were even more breathtaking than just the takeover itself. Hang on tight because I’m about to take you on a trip.

And in case you’re wondering, this was my very first post during my takeover.
