bowling for soup

On the friday of half term me and three of my friends went to see bowling for soup! Im still excited about it. It was my first proper 'gig' and i enjoyed it so much! We went to the HMV forum in Camden (which is a kinda scary place) on the train, which cost a small fortune! My friend won tickets so was on the guest list and managed to get us in slightly earlier so we were in the second row! Really close to the front. Then we were waiting for what seemed like ages and my feet were already starting to hurt but i was so excited.

Then the first support band came on- Orange. Me and my friend had previously googled them to see what they were like and we had low hopes but they were actually amazing! The main singer, Joe Dexter(i found out his name later) had bright orange hair and a really cool red jacket!

Then they went off and after a short break we had the second support band called Suburban legends. They were equally as amazing and sung I just cant wait to be king from the lion king which was awesome and i could sing along properly. They also had two members playing brass instruments and they did little dance routines and they were so funny and cool!

Then the madness started. As soon as bowling for soup came on everyone rushed forward and i was so squashed that my face was kinda stuck to the guy infront of me's back. It was so funny though and i still managed to sing and jump and shout, especially when we decided to move further back to get some more space. Bowling for soup were fantastic and it was such a great night! I'm definitely going to go and see them again when they tour. 

Bowling for soup :D

Afterwards we went outside and we got pictures with the lead singer of orange (Joe from earlier in the post) and the lead singer from suburban Legends (who looked like a bit like doctor who because he has a jacket and bowtie.)
