I assume the 'EXCLUSIVE BACKSTAGE CONTENT' will be what the 'This Is Us' crew have been filming them for then?

Interesting decision to have the concert filmed there, rather than Wembley Stadium (I thought this venue would be the obvious choice).

 

Speaking of Wembley Stadium, 2 weeks tomorrow - I'll be there. *.*

  • 2 weeks later...

So they were really good. Honestly the crowd, were really poor though. Got quite close to the front too.

 

Zayn was more moody than normal, infact I don't think he spoke once all night. Harry and Niall have so much stage presence it's unreal. Liam tries so hard, but it just comes across nowhere near as natural.

 

Good show though.

YAY glad you enjoyed it :cheer:

 

lol at Zayn though, I wonder why :kink:

 

Louis was fine though. Zayn didn't once interact with the crowd. I really think something's up.

Be warned to those that are going, you will see that advert for the DVD about 10 times. If you hate Gorgon City, Five Seconds of Summer, Little Mix and Olly Murs then you're in for a long wait..

 

I'd really recommend starting to que around 3pm if you're standing. I had friends that went at about 5 to start queuing and they were so far back!

What time does it finish?

 

Somewhere around 10.30.

 

5SOS came out at about 7.10, and were done by 8, then One Direction must have come on around 9.

sorry to be a pain with all the questions :heehee: but do you remember 5SOS' set-list?

They played Don't Stop about 4 songs in, then Teenage Dream a bit later and SLSP as the set closer. They must have played pretty much their whole album though. I started drinking really early, and we were very close to the front. Ended up breaking the seal, and it was a nightmare finding a boys toilet and then getting through a full crowd, so I missed probably a third of their set.

LOL, well at least you were enjoying yourself :kink:

 

Going by what you've said, I'm assuming it was something like this?:

I think it was exactly like that, only with a few songs turned around... only I think they played 10/11 songs and not 15.

 

There was a lot of chat involved, and they clearly wanted everyone to remember their names. Their whole marketing strategy is based on One Direction.

Have heard nothing but good reviews about the show in Edinburgh! And somebody I went to school with was extremely close to Harry and she gave him her bracelet and he put it in his back pocket. JEALOUS.

 

Caggie Dunlop is also going to tonight's show #randomfact :kink:

Honestly if you're standing get as close to the front as you can. Harry throw three/four water bottles in to the crowd that he'd been drinking from, and if anyone has ever seen the WWE wrestler Triple H do his water move.. well Harry loves doing that over the crowd!!!

I saw them last night at Wembley Stadium! It's the second time I've been to Wembley Stadium (the first time being for The Killers) and I can't get over how amazing that venue is. It's so incredible seeing tens of thousands of people in the crowd!

 

I thought they were really good. A lot of their songs are perfect for a stadium "singalong" atmosphere, very enjoyable indeed. I think they could have gone a lot further with the production values though, and really made more of a visually spectacular show... but I suppose they/their team don't feel it's necessary to go to town with it. Their mere presence attracted the loudest screams I've ever heard in my life, and they had such strong adulation from the crowds, throughout the entire set. I guess they don't believe they need to go the extra mile and make more of an effort. It's definitely demand that dictates them doing stadiums more so than it is them being a stadium-ready act.

 

I think watching the show back on YouTube or a DVD would possibly lean towards being boring, but actually being part of the crowd really added to the enjoyment.
