The Concerts Thread

[National Anthem 9,904]

I planned to go to the Lana Del Rey concert alone, but I messed up my ticket ordering (ordered 2 accidently), so my best friend is coming with me, but she loves Lana too, so she was happy.

 

Well dang that turned out well huh?

[Hello Heaven 1,578]

I'm seeing lana in Birmingham on may 12th and Purfume on July 5th in London.

Argh I can't waiiit

Who have you seen live? How were they live and where did you see them? Always interesting for me to talk to others about music and to hear about artists are like live, if they talk to the crowd and so on.

 

 

I've seen Lana (epic, the best I've been to) last month in London. Brand New, Metallica, Bat for Lashes, Coheed and Cambria, Imogen Heap, Yeasayer and Billy Talent. Not very many but it certainly gives you the taste to go see more live music.

 

Aside for the predictable morons being moronic at the Lana concert, I really could see the effect live music has on people. People were crying and soaking in the atmosphere and I really loved that. It's disheartening if an artist doesn't bother to speak much during the concert as it makes it seem like they don't really want to be there but Lana is incredible as I think she makes her audience feel welcomed by her and comfortable and looks as though she loves to be with her fans in front of the stage. 

 

So who have you seen and where, when?

My 2013 concert list looks like this so far:

 

Björk - Paris, March 8 ✓

Lana Del Rey - Hamburg, April 6 ✓

Lana Del Rey - Berlin, April 15 ✓

Lana Del Rey - Bruxelles, May 31  ✓

Bruce Springsteen - Leipzig, July 7 ✓

 

Bob Dylan - Hamburg, October 19

Charli XCX - Berlin, October 22

Mylène Farmer - Bruxelles - November 16

 

Even though it seems highly unlikely, I hope that Kesha and MS MR add a couple of shows in Germany.

[Kittren 209]

For me the next one is Robbie Williams, next week With my mom. She is a really big fan

[elllipsis 1,441]

Next one is Austra at a festival in Portugal and then Roger Waters at Wembley in September.

 

However, I'm going to miss Devendra Banhart's gig in my hometown this August quite simply because I'm stupid. Worst of all: Fab Moretti is touring with him and this would be a great chance to meet him. But now I won't. Because I'm SOOO STUPID!
