Favourite Gigs!

I have been to too many gigs to count but I am going to mention a few that I have loved!

I am not ashamed to admit the first concert I ever went to was Steps in the late 90's.
It was held at the SECC and at about 6 years old I attended with my mum and best friend.
Songs performed included Tragedy and 5,6,7,8 and overall I had a brilliant night. It is here where my love for live music and concerts began!


My all time favourite concert was Angels & Airwaves at the O2 Academy on the 11th of April 2008.
It took some convincing to get my friend to go with me as they are not everyones cup of tea. However a surprise on the night was that the support act were You Me At Six another one of both of our favourites so she ended up having a good night anyway! Here is a clip from the night which i still get goosebumps listening to 3 years on :D



A more recent gig I attended on June 26th last year was P!nk at Hampden Park. This was my first stadium gig and despite the high price for alcohol and the disgusting toilets resembling the festival experience, it was an outstanding night. Thankfully the weather was fine! The stunts at this show were incredible,
starting with Pink bungee jumping from a huge crane with loads of balloons.
It finished with Pink strapped into a harness in order to come right into the audience - flipping and rotating in all directions. This stunt went wrong at the gig in Germany leading to the singer being hospitalised.
It wasnt too serious and the star did continue the tour and repeat the stunt in the remaining locations - brave lady!
