“Just watched my
wildest dreams come true, no one of them involving you”
Hayley, the lead singer of band, claimed this to be her
favourite part of the Misery Business song but the audience sang along so loud
that she just had to give in and actually pull someone from the crowd to sing along
with her – honestly I think that girl had the best time of her life in that
moment. That’s part of the new Paramore concept, and the show that they put
together that has been criticised as being too commercial by the 2 former band
players, the actual founders of the band.
I’m yet unsure if I like the new Paramore
concept, as there was less singing – and
with 4 albums out now they do have enough material to play for over just 1h15m
– there was a lot of talking between songs, and the new tunes don’t seem to have
the same strength that older ones. However, the feelings and emotions shared
between the band and the audience were ecstatic so it was a really good evening
– also considering that with most of the audience being underage, getting
drinks in the bar was really quick.
(Alchie) Practicalities aside, the experience was really
good. Paramore have good vibrant songs with a heavy base, so there are a lot of
opportunities to jump up & down – the young
er (and not that young) generations have that well covered – so
there is a lot of adrenaline in the air to keep going and we laughed a lot.
Then thanks to the new material, there are times to rest and – as one of the
songs claimed – to think about the good things in life and no matter if one
thinks things can’t get better, they actually do. Not that I can complain a single
bit about my life but…
if they only knew.
