All Time Low; Back to the future Hearts tour 2016. Glasgow Hydro 15/02/2016

Hey my loves

So as I write this I am posting videos to my youtube channel... They suck though. So just enjoy the photo's unless you really want to hear me singing at the top of my lungs and wobbly camera skills. 

So this week, my heart is still in bits. Not going to lie. 
Fangirl yes sir I am. Twenty five years old, a fully grown woman, educated, decent job and Fangirl. My boys from Maryland were over in Glasgow the day after Valentines. Who needs a Valentines date, when I had the night of my life, the day after. 
Good Charlotte and Against the Current supported in this huge venue. Against the Current I have no idea who they are not going to lie. But they sounded alright. One for the younger ones in the crowd. 

But then my main event, even more special than the Baltimore lads, Good Charlotte. Their music got me through my teenage years. So at 25, being able to see them perform. It was incredible, never in my wildest dreams, did I ever think I would see them perform. But now I have. It has just blew shit out of the water. I love them again and was genuinely close to tears whilst they performed. They performed old classics like lifestyles of the rich and famous, The river and my favourite I don't wanna be in love. Also their new song Makeshift love. I can't believe even after 13/14 years I can still love a band. I could've cried with how close I was to Joel Madden on the runway. They were a lot better than expected and I don't know how. But somehow they just know how to put a show on. Even after all that time away. It is safe to say I am excited for their new album, which I believe is being produced by none other than the fab John Feldmann, who has made his name in the recent years, with albums from All Time Low, 5sos.. He has been writing with Biffy Clyro, Andy Biersack... Just to name a few. All the bands I love. So I am for sure looking forward to it coming out and then the autumn tour.... Yaaay.





Then on to my fellow Ravens enthusiasts. All Time Low... Alex, Zack, Jack and Rian. I take my hat off to you guys. You blew me away. You just totally had me, lost in the moment. To watching the bond you all have on stage which is just beautiful. Jack and Alex's stage banter, never fails to make me laugh. Alex's speech before Missing you... I swear to god that guy is trying to make me cry at a show. Being at the barrier, so close to the stage, so close to the human, that give me life. It was beyond what I had conjured up in my dreams. I could go on all day at what their music means to me but I won't. Playing old classics, from ten  years ago, it makes me feel old as I remember buying the album, Put up or Shut up, all those years ago... A decade to be exact. Just craziness. Playing new songs that people love, A love like war, will forever be my favourite song to see live or Timebomb. Slowing it down and playing Therapy and Missing you... Tugs at my heartstrings too much. Dear Maria always gets played at the end and everyone always go nuts for it. Who knew what a school band from Baltimore has overcome and achieved in the past twelve years. To see them walk down the runway, after headlining in one of Scotland's largest venues. Chocked me up and made my heart swell with happiness for them. I am proud of them for being able to do a show like they put together and managed to slay it. You four dudes, killed it and even now as I write this two days later. I still can't believe it. Can I just go back two days now please.

Here is some pictures of the guys in action.

Got another one... Boulder holders for the win.
