Posted July 21, 20204 yr Welcome to the first of our Ariana Grande virtual concert events! Going to a concert or the cinema remains out of the window right now so we thought we'd bring Ariana concerts to BuzzJack in the comfort of our own homes. Fans have kindly put each of her tours together as one full experience on YouTube. So we shall witness the evolution of Ariana as a live performer over the weeks! We shall be watching: - The Listening Sessions - Honeymoon Tour - Dangerous Woman Tour - One Love Manchester - Sweetener World Tour Today we go back to basics with Ariana's first tour 'The Listening Sessions'! This was in support of her debut album 'Yours Truly'. The tour began on August 11th 2013 and concluded on September 22nd 2013. It was called 'The Listening Sessions' as she wanted to perform in a handful of intimate venues and fans would be hearing music before the album was released. Pre-sale tickets for all 11 of these venues had to be taken down early, as they were selling at such a fast rate that the tour was almost sold out before regular tickets were available! Her early impact. The tour was not expanded due to 'Sam & Cat' commitments and recording for 'My Everything'. Join us tonight for an hour of Ariana plus a few special guests! The way this works is that we all press play on the following link at 8pm BST: lHUs1f4OnGA Comment as much or little as you want in this thread while watching :heart: this one can be a test to see how this multi-tasking goes! I'll provide a live rundown of what the set-list is as we go along in case a song doesn't sound familiar. Excited :cheer: hope to see some of you there!
July 21, 20204 yr Author Oh no :( what time would you be free and ready to start? Is 9:30 too much of a rush? (BJSC Worldvision deadline is tonight so I was going to do this and then that after, but could swap over if people don't mind this being a bit later :thinking:)
July 21, 20204 yr I wouldn't be home until 9.40-ish! It's ok. You guys stick with this and hopefully (I'll check my rota tonight) I'll be able to join you next week!
July 21, 20204 yr Author Alright, fingers crossed for next week then :heart: I've just realised that Tuesday in two weeks time will be my birthday :lol: so that week will be a breather or on a different day! But will stick to Tuesday at 8pm for these first two weeks.
July 21, 20204 yr Well I'm back to my normal schedule at work (earlies) which tends to mean I have to be up between 2:30 - 5am most days, so I'll already in bed by 8 most days. :cry: Being off work was nice whilst it lasted despite the rest of the world crumbing and at the end of the day at least I definately have a job until the end of August when the redundancies start. Should I be around I'll join in whenever I can. ;)
July 21, 20204 yr Author I know that Bré is planning to join and Andrew expressed interest in the initial thread, so hopefully he can still make it! I'm planning to wear something relevant for each of these but don't have a 'Yours Truly' era shirt, so a wrist band will do :kink:
July 21, 20204 yr It's going to be really interesting to (kinda) see this show in full. I've seen plenty of clips of it previously but never sat down and listened like this.
July 21, 20204 yr Her voice is amazing as always but the difference in stage presence between now and then is massive. Baby I is actually a pretty cute single to be fair.

July 21, 20204 yr Author Her voice is amazing as always but the difference in stage presence between now and then is massive. I was thinking the exact same thing :lol: she smashed some of those tough notes on 'Baby I' *.* but is a bit awkward on stage. Looking forward to seeing the evolution each week! 'Lovin' It' another good'un :heart:
