So, let me tell you My Sounds Live Feels Live Story…
One night I was praying to God,
“Lord please let 5SOS have a concert here in the Philippines, I’m begging youuuu. I will do anything”
(No, okay I kinda exaggerate there but yeah)
So I prayed in what seems like a million nights then BOOM! WISH GRANTED. (EZ!)
October 2015 (I think?) they announced their European and Asian tour and of course it means MANILA TOUR FINALLY! YAAAAY Ticket selling starts at November 07, 2015 yaaay it’s my Grandma’s Birthday I can’t go.
And of course we didn’t go thinking that we can just buy tickets tomorrow, on MY BIRTHDAY!
But the saddest part of the story?
THE TICKETS GOT SOLD OUT ON DAY 1 SELLING. IT MEANS NO TICKET FOR ME, NO CONCERT, NO 5SAUCE, NO LIFE, R.I.P.
MY SISTER LITERALLY CRIED THE WHOLE NIGHT. (SHOUT OUT TO YOU BITS!)
BUT NOTHING CAN STOP US! We tried sooo many ways to get two tix.
We wait & wait & wait & wait…… Then after a few days, @5SOSPH tweeted that there are few seats available on SMTICKETS Outlet.
Good thing my sister is currently checking updates on twitter. I was at my school then she texted me that she's on her way to SM North Edsa and that means she didn’t attend her afternoon classes.She just changed her clothes, grab her wallet and ran through the UV station.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I came home from school patiently waiting for her. And yaaaaaay she got 2 Upper Box Tickets! Success!
Okayyyyyyyyy we now have our tickets. All we need to do is WAIT. Easy right? No? Okay.
WAITING is freakin' HARD.
But Patience is Virtue.
D-Dayyyyyyyyyyy
WAITING OUTSIDE THE VENUE SINCE MORNING.
Then here we are entering the venue. I'm so hyped HAHAHAHA
And Lets get the party started!
(So close but so far away)
A SKY FULL OF STARS.
They started with "Carry On" and trust me, It was the best feeling ever. All I could hear is my heart beating faster that it should.
Specially on A M N E S I A. When All the white lights turned into Blue, Red and Yellow (It symbolizes the Philippine Flag)
It was so Surreal!
Setlist:
"Hey Everybody!"
"Money"
"Voodoo Doll"
"Don't Stop"
"Disconnected"
"Long Way Home"
"Outer Space"
"Waste the Night"
"Vapor"
"Amnesia"
"Castaway"
"Jet Black Heart"
"End Up Here"
"Good Girls"
"Permanent Vacation"
"What I Like About You"
And It ended with "She's Kinda Hot" and Finally "She Looks So Perfect"
Afterall, we have to accept that "Everything has to come on an END".
Honestly, I am not rich but I do not regret spending that money, I do not regret being scolded by my family, I do not regret every single second I was there. BECAUSE IT WAS ALL WORTH IT.
"THANK YOU DAD FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE I LOVE YOU SOOOO SOOOO MUCH!"
After few weeks, PCD [post-concert depression] is killing me.
(I know I'm not the only one!)
What I do to cure it is Listening to LIVESOS bc it takes back many feels!
And then re-watching my Concert Vids. I guess it helps.
I MISS THEM SO FREAKIN' MUCH UGHHHHHHHHHHH.
Well That's it! What about you? What's your story? :)
Let's talk about it!
