5SOS Preferences

Sounds Live Feels Live Experience

Ok, so as you all know, my 5SOS concert was on July 23rd. It was one of the best  nights of my life. I'm so excited to tell you all about my experience. (My experience also included soundcheck)

The morning of the concert was pretty boring. My mom and dad were busy putting things in boxes for our move to the Philippines. Some friends of theirs came over and helped us repair the house, as some of the features in it were in pretty bad shape. One came over and helped my mom fold clothes. Since my friends weren't huge fans of 5SOS at all, my mom had to come with me. We left the house around two, and got to the venue around two thirty. Even though I was extremely excited  about the concert, I seemed pretty calm on the outside. The heat was freaking terrible, as the sun practically beams down on you. After fifteen minutes or so, we were finally let in the arena. We got our wristbands and land yards and waited to get into soundcheck. Everyone was let in around three thirty ish. Everybody sat in chairs that faced the stage. Then, some fans were seated in their actual seats. We could sit anywhere. Soundcheck was supposed to start at four, but the boys took FOREVER to come out. The security guard told us the rules, and when I found out we couldn't record anything, I was sad but happy at the same time. I wanted to remember my experience, and I was so sad that I couldn't look back on this.  Anyway, the boys came out around five. They said hi to all the fans. Ashton was the one to speak first, saying hi and that he's glad we could them for the soundcheck party.. He introduced the first song they were going to be playing, which was Out Of My Limit. All the fans, including myself, jammed out to the song, belting the lyrics at the top of our lungs. I got to witness Michael and Luke shredding on their guitars, Calum killing it on the bass, and Ashton slaying on the drums, which is so freaking cool. They are so talented, it's unbelievable. After that, the Q and A session started. Ladies with microphones would come over to you, hand you it, and then you would say your name and ask your question. Someone asked the boys what was the one lyric or song they were most proud of. They didn't have specific answers. Michael said that Broken Home actually saved his parent's marriage, as they were going to divorce. Calum said that Invisible was written in Nashville. They were asked if they could sing any song and Michael blurted out "Hotline Bling."
According to Calum, Michael was drunk at the beginning of Invisible. (It's kinda faint, but he says "What was it?") Michael and Luke got up to show their guitar collection, and while they did this, Luke said"Hi we're Luke and Michael also known as Muke."

They were all wearing SnapBacks.

When asked about senior quotes, they started rhyming words that sounded like ooze.

Calum, Ashton, Michael, and Luke all bought new guitars in Nashville.

Then, after the Q and A session, they played If You Don't Know and Catch Fire.

I got merchandise after soundcheck , which  consisted of a tour program, a tour shirt, and the four photocards with messages on them from the boys, including their signatures. I ate dinner in the Patron Lounge, which played 5SOS, FOB, One Direction, and many other bands' songs.

The menu had a picture of 5SOS on it, along with song names in place of the standard format.

My mom and I found our seats after that.

We had a pretty good view of the stage.

Hey  Violet came on around seven ish.

They were pretty amazing. Rena killed it on the vocals and Nia was incredible on the drums. Casey and Miranda were incredible as well.

One Ok Rock came on around seven fifty five ish or so, I can't remember lol.

Anyway, they were freaking incredible.

The lead singer had lots of energy and was jumping around like crazy. He had a very powerful and amazing voice. His bandmates were killing it on their instruments.

I really enjoyed their set. My favorite song that they performed was "The Mighty Long  Fall." It's very catchy.

5SOS came on after, and needless to say, I was freaking out. I'd never seen them headline in Nashville before, so it was pretty exciting for me.

After the concert was over, I couldn't help but feel a little sad. I wasn't going to be in Nashville for two years, and if they came back, I wouldn't be able to see them. But I was also over the moon happy. 5SOS were freaking phenomenal! They're so talented!
This was a night I would never ever forget, even if I was moving to the other side of the world.

A/N: God, this took forever! I hope you guys enjoyed this:) I had so much fun and will most likely be posting pics/videos from the concert later this week!

I'm such a bad person lol
