5sos was the last concert i went to, i haven't been to any since :( waaah soon hopefully!
i saw them on october 3rd 2023 in glasgow, scotland! it was my first concert in glasgow and it was really fun! considering most of my other concerts have been in manchester; i will saw that scotland knows what they're doing! the nicest people ever. from the hotel staff to the people selling merch... everyone was so friendly and respectful.
the concert itself was such a blast! i went with my mom who is also a huge 5sos fan; we've both loved them since their early 2013-2014 days and finally got to a concert haha. they played all their greatest hits etc. and even played (though by total random luck) by mom's all time favourite song: english love affair which was never a single from their 1st album.
enjoy these pictures i took lmao<3 we had sitting seat tickets because i'm lazy and were on the left side.
i consider myself lucky to be able to see sabrina when i did, her tickets these days (two years later) are on par with eras tour tickets and sold out twice as fast.
however, this concert was a mess. not sabrina's fault at all, but i don't know why the organisers chose a concert hall (this was in the O2 Apollo Manchester) during the middle of summer. there are no windows in this venue, again it was summer!! it was so hot. i believe an abulance was called during some time because a girl got heat stroke. i didn't even stay for the full concert because it was so hot. i left just before the encore (maybe two songs before). the smoke machine didn't work properly either, sabrina did say she couldn't see at one point and, no duh! no windows or air ventilation!! not to mention, she couldn't really dance because the stage is so small. luckily, she's got a better venue this year!
halsey was the last concert i went to before the pandemic hit and england went into lockdown. i am so thankful i got to see her, halsey is one of those artists that truly mean the world to me.
not sure what to say about this concert other than it was amazing, halsey puts on a huge show. this was her manic world tour so everything was in beautiful colours etc. pale waves opened for halsey which was also super cool!
oh no my emo phase 2.0 is here!!! i don't know why i went to this concert, i liked one of their songs and that's it. dragged my sister and mom to this one. the opening acts were really scary ngl. this was a concert to forget, i often forget i went. cool blue hair though!
rae is a singer here in the uk, she's not super well known and it's a shame!! she has some really cool music, i would say she's similar in some ways to aurora! i hadn't heard of her before i went with a friend to her concert and i honestly fell in love with her! her "reborn" album is my fave!! super cute on stage, dances around, plays the piano whilst holding an umbrella. she deserves more love.
laurel is also a british singer that is not super well known (but should be). she had a song in the vampire diaries which is how i discovered her!!
due to being so extremely unknown (at least, at the time...) her concert was at SOUP which is like a resturant that has a live venue in the basement pretty much, it's actually a cool venue and i recommend just going anyway!
i met laurel after the show as she was signing stuff, i got her book "mutterings of a laurel" signed there. she hugged me and (without sounding creepy) she smelt so good. i wished i asked her for her perfume cause it was really nice, kinda spicy lmao!!
anyone who has seen my little mix shrine knows that i have seen little mix live! i believe i cried seeing them because i was so obsessed, i had followed them since their x-factor days etc. i saw them when jesy was still in the band, it was the middle of summer and it was a stadium (outside) concert!! truly the best summer for me, i miss them so so much!!
astrid s was my first ever concert!! astrid is a norwegian singer, i can't remember how i discovered her but she's awesome! i had a fun time, it was cold though haha. not sure what else to say... it was great!!
