Bruno Mars: 24K Magic Tour

Bruno Mars: 24K Magic Tour

What are the chances of getting a 2×1 gig ticket twice in a lifetime? Extremely odd, I should say. BUT the Gig Gods were massively good to me and gave me the opportunity to watch Bruno Mars AND Nick Jonas together. And I know what you’re thinking: “getting hyped for Nick Jonas? Can’t relate.” Well, turns out I had one of those frightening super-stan phases where I was obsessedwith the Jonas…

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition II

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition II

Welcome back to another edition of Gigs and Drinks! You know I luuuuuv semi-dying of thirst and lack of air more often than not, which is why I have to attend at least once a year a big festival.

I believe you’ll enjoy this one though; it’s one of my favourite editions because I got to see almost every act front row. (!!!)

So, without further ado, the performers:

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition IV

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition IV

And we’re back with another edition of Gigs and Drinks! This time though was a different kind: a one-day, two-stages-only festival. Pros: you get to see every act because there’s no way they can happen at the same time. Cons: each set was limited, meaning no band could surpass their set time. I saw most of the bands from afar (essentially because the POV from every angle was great) and only three…

Pablo Alborán: Prometo Tour

Pablo Alborán: Prometo Tour

Is it weird the fact that I am not a fan of this bloke yet I find myself going to a gig of his AGAIN? I have a good reason though: my best friend is a massive fan and somehow I won a pair of tickets to see his show so you know I had to take her. I wrote about him from the perspective of a production crew here, but this time I was a simple attendee.

Our tickets were pretty close to the stage,…

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition III

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition III

And we’re back with another Festival Edition on Gigs and Drinks! This edition though is different from the previous ones: for the first time ever I ventured to not one but TWO WHOLE FEST DAYS! woot woot! Sure you can imagine how devastated and unbelievably tired I finished after a fun-filled weekend but since I know it’s been too long *wink wink*let’s get this party started with the performers:

Gigs and Drinks: The Petite Venue Edition I

Gigs and Drinks: The Petite Venue Edition I

Just as much as I love attending big festivals, I’m also a massive fan of small, personal gigs where the artist interacts in a much closer way with their audience. In this edition of Gigs and Drinks, two up-and-coming artists with a small-venue performance:

Charlie Rodd

Yes, the same guest artist from Jake Bugg’s gig. The greatest thing about up-and-coming artists is how pure and true they…

Have I ever told you what I do for a living? I’m actually an Entertainment and Media Business Manager, which means sometimes it can have its perks and this gig was definitely one of them.

I had the opportunity to be part of Pablo Alborán’s staff during his Terral Tour, and my duties included catering and production (woo!).

It’s pretty exciting to watch an artist live, but it’s a wonderful…

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition I

Gigs and Drinks: Festival Edition I

Is there really anything better than a festival? Not only do you get to see a bunch of brilliant artists, it is also a safe space to try new foods, dance the day away and enjoy free stuff thanks to all the sponsors’ stands. The only downside for people my size is the view: either you sacrifice a kitten and your evening meal in exchange for a front-row experience or you just sit, relax and enjoy…

Thirty Seconds To Mars: Love, Lust, Faith + Dreams Tour

One of the greatest perks of being so small is the fact that you can fit basically anywhere, which is specially nice at gigs because you can be at the front without disturbing anyone, just enjoying a great show… or so I thought.

Thirty Seconds to Mars is a band well-known for getting fans on stage, giving them the opportunity to live up-close and personal the whole show. Apparently, everyone knew…
