Hello & Welcome back to my blog...
I haven't posted on my blog for absolutely ages because i started to get really busy and struggled to find time to sit down for a couple of hours and write a blog post when i needed to be doing other important stuff and then i sort of lost the motivation to start back up again but i'm now really excited to start doing it again now as I've finished college for the summer and have more spare time!
So... a couple of weekends ago i went to see 5 Seconds Of Summer at Wembley Arena on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th June! I can honestly say it was in my top 3 best shows i've ever been to in my life and i'm not just saying that because they're one of my favourite bands... I'm going to tell you all about it and give you my review of the show ♥

Saturday 13th June 15
This was the 2nd date of the tour at Wembley for 5SOS but my first date. My seats were in block S9 and row S and they were a lot better than i thought they would be! I got into the venue half way through Hey Violet and they were actually really good and i enjoyed listening to them and have listened to some of their music since. They did a few of their own songs and also an amazing cover of Blank Space by Taylor Swift. Then it was time for 5SOS, they played tunes like Stacy's Mom and Teenage Dirtbag to get everyone pumped! They started with one of my favourite songs on the album "End Up Here" my fave part is ashtons singing near the end! It had the most incredible atmosphere ever, listening to everyone singing every single lyric back and during Amnesia the arena was fully lit up and it looked beautiful. They are one of the best live bands i've ever seen and their energy is amazing. They really interacted with the crowd going from one side of the stage to the other and getting every part of the arena involved which i love. Everyone was singing and dancing throughout every part of the gig and 5SOS looked so happy on stage. You can tell that they really love what they do and they put every part of their soul into their shows and it really shows. But during the end when they were singing She Looks So Perfect, Michael caught his hair/face a light on the Piro Technics and ran straight off stage (no one around me including me didn't even notice) Ashton came on stage after SLSP had finished and apologized and said that they couldn't carry on the end of the show because he had been really hurt, everyone was so shocked but worried for Mikey as he had properly burned himself! Aside from that... my favourite songs they sung live (so hard to choose because everyone was unreal) End Up Here, Heartbreak Girl, Rejects (they got someone up on stage during this song to play the guitar which was amazing!), Amnesia, Everything I Didn't Say and American Idiot (Green Day Cover). I will insert some photographs below here from their gig...
Sunday 14th June
This has nothing to do with 5SOS but before the show, i went and saw Marvin Humes (one of my faves who i've loved for a long time) so we popped into Leicester Square to see him first and grab some food and then headed to Wembley (i'll insert a photo here).
We chilled in Wembley for a bit and then made our way into the venue, we were sitting on the floor tonight in Block B2 a couple of rows from the back. I was really happy because i would finally be able to hear the encore which include two of my favourite songs. I think it was really good of the guys to carry on playing the final night, considering what happened the previous night and you can tell that everyone appreciated that. I personally thought the crowd were better on the final night, the atmosphere on the floor seemed a lot better probably because i was sitting closer and you could see more of the crowd and see everyone having the time of their lives. My favourites were the same as the previous night but included Good Girls and What I Like About You. I absolutely LOVE their cover of WILAY because its so full of energy and it was the perfect song to finish off i think. Ashton's drumming in it as well is incredible as always. It felt really special to be apart of their last date in the UK/Europe as they were heading to Australia next! They absolutely smashed their last show and their family were there too which makes it feel even more sentimental and makes you think how far they have come. During WILAY we were fully going for it bringing out the air guitars/drums it was hilarious and i loved every minute of that night. I will never forget that weekend, one of the best weekends ever and i was so sad walking out the arena and just going back home because i didn't want it to be over! If you've never seen them live then you need to make sure you do because its so full of energy, singing, rocking out and they do what they do SO incredibly well and it shows how much they love what they do. Until the next tour time !!!!!
Hope you have enjoyed reading about my 5SOS weekend in London and if you went make sure you tell me below what you thought of the show and if you haven't seen them, does my blog post make you want to go?!
