Hozier - Reading Festival Set

☆★★★★

Hoziers Performance was amazing and his speach that he gave knowing it would lead to him being cencored by the bbc was so powerful. Here is the line i think that caused the cencorship, since it goes against the governments current position; "spraypainting an airoplane does not constitute an act of terrorism, and supporting the people who do does not constitute an act of terrorism" -Hozier. There is a link to the full speach below. I love hozier and his music was so good, i wasn't a huge fan before so i looked up a load of his songs in the weeks before and fell in love with them, im so glad i got to go and i lost my voise so bad after Take Me To Church but it was an incredible experience. Only looses a star because id say most of the crowd didnt know any songs beside Take Me To Church and the chorus of Work Song but there was enough people that did that it wasn't too bad just there was alot of chatting in the crowd at some points.

Hit Me Hard And Soft Tour - Billie Eilish

★★★★★

Genuinly such a good show, I am obsessed with billie and have been for many years and this was my second time seeing her, I first saw her at the Happier Than Ever Tour which was also amazing. Loved every second of it and lost my voice multiple times (especially after Happier Than Ever), and I mean, being in the same room as BILLIE EILISH!!! Love love loved guess, hte, birds of a feather, lunch, ocean eyes... the list goes on. My night didn't get TV though 😭. So glad I went and I will be attempting to go to all future tours.

The Eras Tour - Taylor Swift + Openers

☆★★★★

We arrived half way through Benson Boone and he had so much energy, backflipping, jumping all around. It was a great start to the show. Next up was Paramore which I loved, Hayley Williams was great with the crowd and it was an amazing performance, really got me into Paramore tbh. Finally the main event, Taylor Swift. This was honestly one of the best concerts I've been to, yes it was very long, but everytime you considered taking a break another top track started. The outfits, the stageing, Gracie Abrams as a Surprise Guest, the general atmosphere, all amazing.
