5SOS SLFL London and Brighton

Hello everyone,
I cannot believe the time has come for me and my pals to hit the road for the Aussies all over again. The last few days have been so incredible and I wanted to document it here so I can remember it. If you don't like 5SOS then please just stop reading because things are about to get EMO, real emo.
We (me, Emmy, Amy and Emma) got to our super cute apartment in London on Thursday, plugged in a laptop and started searching for tickets. It didn't take long for us to snap up some in a block on Calum's side, given we are being Michael AF for the rest of tour. We played a 5SOS version of heads up and C.A.H (Karen Clifford's ham and all that jazz) before stumbling to the venue.

A weekend with The Maine

Hello everyone,
as we all know, I'm fairly emo. I get v. emosh about many things, from dogs to books to bands. One thing in particular that's made me emo since my early teens is a band (or Arizona Emo Group if you prefer) by the name of The Maine. I haven't seen this band live since 2010 so you can imagine that the emo scale did increase by 8123 (get it?). I had the absolute time of my life these past few days and so I wanted to write about it, so I can always remember and relive it.
The story starts in Birmingham, which is the place I first saw them live in (when I was smaller and less emo, but only slightly). As it always does, it rained from the moment I stepped out of the coach station and to the moment I got in my front door. What's interesting, and by interesting I mean HELLA EMO about this tour is that The Maine are on tour with Mayday Parade and that's the same tour (though it was co headlining the first time) I saw them on in 2010. It was as though the emo circle pit came rushing at full force.
