Well hi there, no this post is not delving into the meaning of life I am just too excited because of Echosmiths gig at barfly.
My outfit selfie,
My aunt and I on the train to London
My aunt took a picture of the stage before the crowd turned up
Here's my parasol, it's really quite cute, ironically I've always wanted one of my own, don't know where it's going to go in my room though?!
Poster time!
Me and echosmith, yeah sorry about the cheesy grin, I was nervous, lol I'm always nervous
Another fun fact about me- my blog address is inspired by them, from one of my favourite songs of there's called 'safest place' .
The lyric goes 'Its your own story, Its the safest place you'll ever be' that is the correct line as I double checked on A-Z Lyrics! Hehe
So as you may know I went to their first ever gig in England at a place called Barfly in Camden, ironically I passed Koko where I am going on Wednesday.
When my aunt Maria and I got there, the staff were really helpful and we got to go upstairs to the stage area first to avoid the crowds. As I said in my previous blog post I had been in touch with the management to say I'm blind and all that la de dah, and true to there word I had a stool waiting for me to sit on!
But instead of in the front I was sat at the bar, that barman must of thought I was a right nutter! So it wasn't until I kneeled on the stool with my aunt holding onto me to make sure I didn't stack it that I had a clear view above the peoples heads.
So onto the show, first there was this band called Alvarez Kings, they were quite good actually, even though I had no idea who they were. I might go google them!
Then it was the main event- Echosmith!
I kept saying each song they sang that 'I love this song!' but my favourites would have to be Bright, Safest Place and Nothings Wrong, I really do love those songs!
It was really good, they were really good and when it was over my legs were quivering from being on the stool, it was really quite painful. Oops!
The night didn't end there as my mum before the show went on echosmiths website and clicked on the question section. She said that apparently they come out after each show! So I asked the lady on the merch stand, I was their first customer as I was the first person up there. She said hang around after and they'll come out. So we hung around, I saw there manager, he was selling off sydneys parasol, so I said I'll give him £10! and I got it, it was a really cute parasol actually. Not made for English weather though hahah! but not relising it, I spent my taxi fare, thankfully my auntie maria said she would pay for it in exchange as a birthday present. I also got a sticker, because my aunt said to him that I'd spent my taxi money!
So I met the band minus Jamie, I don't know where he was, and I got them to sign the parasol, poster(that I got with my tshirt) and had a photo with them! They were actually really nice, Sydney said she liked my hair. Yeah It was a epic night.
But I'm feeling it today, my neck,back and legs!
I do love going to concerts because like last night I was just like everyone else, for those few hours, you can forget about everything.
Now I'm getting ready for Tonight Alive tomorrow!
