It's been a while since I last wrote a post but I've been busy with work and sleep and bands, the usual really, so I apologise but now I am here to tell you all about the past three ish weeks of my life, how I've met a bunch of new people, hung out with some of my favourite people, including 5SOS and got to see previously mentioned band perform sold out shows around the country.




TOUR TOUR TOUR!
My tour started on Thursday the 4th June when I got the train to Birmingham, I had about an hour to kill before Bekka's train got in so we could commence our arts and craft evening so I just strolled around the shops and bumped in to a member of Hey Violet (5SOS super awesome support band and first signed artist the their Hi or Hey Records label) when I was going in to Victoria's Secret and then bumped into another member as I was leaving Forever 21. The following day was a show day and Vanessa, Aimee and Ash joined me in Birmingham for our glitter party. We checked into our hotel and got ourselves ready before heading to Hey Violets' acoustic set and meet and greet, this band is honestly super cute and adorable, they are super talented and really lovely people, if you haven't checked them out already please go watch their video for a song called I'm There which they played at the acoustic. We then went and got a Subway and Aimee almost died when she heard the guy behind the counter humming Good Girls. We then headed back to the venue about an hour before the doors opened and reapplied our glitter. The show itself was amazing, I was almost partied out before 5SOS had come on stage because Hey Violet's set was so fun and we danced so much, their cover of Taylor Swift's, Blank Space, was one of my favourite songs of the entire night. 5SOS' set was everything you'd expect, it was so fun, I danced like an idiot even with a certain member side eyeing us the entire show. I flipped Michael off during Wrapped Around Your Finger and Calum laughed at me and I peed. During the show, they play Rejects and pick a fan to go on stage as soon as this happened Vanessa dropped to the floor so they couldn't pick her, Michael was choosing the fan that night and came over to our side of the stage and looked right at me and I just shook my head at him, like don't you dare and he just smirked at me so I just turned around so he couldn't see me. That's basically the only important things that need to be said about the show. After the show we went to buy Chinese food but the shop was closed and we were sad. The next day I left the girls to meet my sister so we could travel to Cardiff to see One Direction on their OTRA tour, which was super fun and then that was all for that week.

At the beginning of the next week I only thought I would be seeing 5SOS on the Sunday but was lucky enough to get front row tickets for the Saturday show, I'm not going to go in to too much detail about the Wembley weekend because this post is already super long so if you're still reading thank you. The Saturday show was so much fun until I witnessed my favourite human set alight right in front of me and the show got cut short, thankfully Michael is a trooper and returned to the stage on the Sunday. Before the show, 5SOS being 5SOS decided to board the banter bus and change the pre-show playlist to songs about fire and flames which made me snort so hard. During the show I could tell Michael was still off a little, he just wasn't quite himself, he kept looking at the other boys for reassurance and he wasn't running around as much as he usually does so that was a little sad to see however the crowd was so behind him the entire show that my heart leaked my love all over the arena floor.

To conclude tour is my favourite time of the year, I loved watching one of my favourite bands do what they love and dance around with my friends, old and new. I'm just sad I'm not a millionaire so can't travel around the world and watch them play every night.
