Imagine Dragons

Monday the 15th of April 2013 is a day I will not forget! One of the best days I have had while being on my exchange! Well the day was nothing overly special, I went to school then went for a run, but the night was amazing as the night was filled with the wonderful music of Imagine Dragons!!

I went to the concert with two friends from school, Iris and Kyra, and one of the other kiwis in Stockholm, Hannah.

We wanted to get to the concert early but we had one small problem. We didn’t actually know where it as! We knew it could be in one of two places so of course we went to the one that it wasn’t in. we missed the front of the line but were not too far back so it was ok! Once we got in we asked to keep our tickets and checked in our coats and went through to the concert hall!

I think where this concert was held is the oddest place to ever hold a concert! It was in a building that also had a swimming pool and a library. It is a bit of an odd mix if you ask me!

We were quite close to the front when we got in, around six or seven rows back, but we were very keen to get to the front row or as close as we could get! We knew it would come to push and shove as soon as the music started playing! And just that happened as soon as the opening band came on, who were not the really my cup of tea. When the opening band finished and left the stage the roadies came on to sort out the stage and the crowd was in full on pushing mode! My friends and I managed to make our way to the second row in the middle! This was the best the most amazing place to be and I really could not have asked for a better place! Amazing! But when they came on stage this is when the real AMAZING starts!

They were so good! All of the songs sounded just as they do on the album and the crowed was amazing singing along and everything and oh it was just so so GOOD!! Every song the whole crowed got into and sung along! I had no voice by the end of that night! I think the best song they played was Radioactive. I tried to video it but that did not work in any way, shape or form! The whole groud was so into the song as it has the best beat to mosh to!

When the concert ended my friends and I made friends with the merchandise guy (who was from Scotland) and he told us where we would find the band to meet them!!

I met the bass player the drummer and the guitar player! Sadly I didn’t get to meet the lead guy as I had to catch my train home!!

Seeing these guys live was just amazing and they are so talented it was a wonderful night!
