Hey all!
So about a week and a half ago it was my birthday (yay) and my wonderful sister bought me tickets to go see Billy Talent (YAY!!) in concert! The neat part of it all was that the concert was actually ON my birthday, which was pretty wicked.
The first band to come out was a punk rock band called Pup. When they first came out, I honestly didn't know who they were, because Hollerado was supposed to be the opening act. However, I was pleasantly surprised by their music and the band in general. They had great stage presence and their music was super catchy. I would absolutely recommend their music to anybody, and they're from Toronto too, so that's a bonus! One of my favourite tracks was probably 'Lionheart', which I'll leave a link for below:

Second up was Hollerado. This would have been the second time I've seen them perform live, and they do NOT disappoint. Their music sounds so much like their tracks, and they really do an amazing job at getting the crowd excited for their music, especially when most of the audience was there to see Billy Talent. I should mention, that during their performance, a very small mosh pit did start...and as I am inexperienced in the punk rock concert department, I assumed that was the extent of it.
Boy was I wrong. Next was Billy Talent, and I literally could not wait. I was so excited to see them come out, and we had gotten ourselves to 3rd row, so we were super close to the band! Well...as those of you who have been to a punk concert will know, what came next was pretty intense. That tiny little mosh pit I had mentioned previously was the least of my worries. Billy Talent came out and of course played Devil in a Midnight Mass....well that surely got the crowd fired up, and it went crazy from there. People punching people in the head, a girl fell on my head, just utter chaos. BUT, it was seriously an amazing concert, and Billy Talent is better live than on their tracks...seriously incredible. They had the crowd going nuts, and it was the best concert I've probably ever been to! I would recommend seeing them in concert if nothing else!! Billy Talent, and all the other bands I mentioned are a must-see live!!
Hope you guys are having a wicked week, talk to you soon :)
BYE!!!
