Meeting & Seeing Bastille Live

Hiya guys, 

so this week I was on tour. Inga and I drove to Göttingen to see Bastille live. We planned everything quite spontaneously because we got tickets from someone who couldn't go (the show was sold out). 

We got there around 4.30 pm and went to search for our friends who were already there. We happened to end up in the front row, since our lovely friends had been at the venue since 1 pm. The show started at 6 pm and was fucking amazing! Dan's voice is so good and they're even way better live than they're on their album. Here's a video:

After the show we went straight to the backstage entry to meet them. And we actually did. They came out to meet us, even though the security guards said they won't (Never trust a security guard btw). If I remember it right Kyle was the first one to come to me and I let him sign my ticket. I also told him how much I liked his shirt, because it was actually really really cool. I don't know who came next, I think it was Woody. He's such a cute and nice lad and I regret not asking for a hug, haha. Will rushed by us and Kyle also rushed by my friends so we asked Dan to tell them to come back when we talked to him. And so he did. He went straight to them to tell them. Will came back and asked us if we were the girls Dan told him to come to. We talked to him for a while (mostly about his tattoo and how he got it when he was 15 and how his parents didn't knew about it). Kyle came back then and we also talked to him for a bit more. Inga asked him if they could sing 'We can't stop' by Miley Cyrus at the acoustic gig they had later that night. Kyle wasn't really sure about it, because they had only cover it once at Radio 1, haha. Then again Dan came back and we talked for some more. Afterwards the guys went back into the venue and we walked into the city to where their acoustic gig should be. I took some really cool photo there. They will be following after my photos with the guys! :)

After the acoustic gig we went back to the venue, because some of our friends hadn't met Bastille yet. Their tour bus was still there but they had to leave before meeting us again. We drove home like not real home, but to my friend Katha's house. When we wanted to make a stop at McDonald's something quite funny happened. When we stood at a traffic light the Bastille tour bus appeared next to us again even though they had left like five minutes earlier than us. 

What pissed me of that night was that most of the people there probably only knew Dan out of the band and that he got the most attention. I know that's the thing with good looking lead singers and I really do love Dan, but the other three guys are just as cool and lovely as Dan.

To summarize everything, the only thing that I can basically say is that Will, Kyle, Woody & Dan are some of the nicest and kindest people I've ever met. They so down to earth and really really thankful. They're pretty easy to talk to and quite funny, too. You just gotta love them. I honestly prefer Bastille over any other band. I also met some really cool people from Twitter, so big shout out to them, haha! 

The next post will be about the Passenger concert I went to the day after Bastille, but I won't most likely be uploading it today, because I really have to study for an important exam.

Hope you guys had an amazing weekend, too! :)
