A Day in the Life....One Direction Concert.

So, we are going to start this series where, basically, any time we do anything cool we document it and tell you all about it. Seems simple! So, I figured the first one should be today since one Wednesday I went to the One Direction concert with my little sister! So, we made it a family thing:

After work Dillon and I met up with my family and rode to Nashville. It's like a 45 minute drive from where we live, so not far at all.

First stop: Food! 
We went to this cute little place called Bella Napoli. Little Italian place in the middle of these little shops. Super cute. Kind of secluded. And the weather was great so we ate outside =]

So, next stop was just next door to a little gelato place called LegatoGelato (I am pretty sure thats what it is tehe) for some tasty gelato. We got vanilla and hazelnut. SO GOOD!! I mean seriously delicious. 

Then it was on to the concert. It was at Bridgestone Arena, which is HUGE. We got near it and it was like every 13 year old girl in the whole state was there. So crazy! We pushed through got shirts, and went searching for our seats. Now these tickets were bought like a year ago and we were told we were in the nosebleeds. Which, was kind of true, we were high up, but the angle of our seats couldn't have been more perfect. We could see everything. Not to mention, because we were higher up, no one stood up really and got in our way. We are short ladies so people standing up in front of us is a no no! 

Now, let me explain something. This was a concert for preteens mostly, a lot of parents just dropped them off. I felt like the oldest person there. So every time a stagehand walked on the stage, or the screen showed the logo, it was like the loudest screaming mess I have ever heard. I mean like ear splitting screams. I am so so so thankful that my mom had given me ear plugs. It wasn't because I was some old lady who doesn't like loud music, it was to protect my poor ears from the crazy girl screams!!!

So anyways, the opening act came on: 5 Seconds to Summer. They were pretty good! Boy band type look, but they all played their own instruments. So they were a band rather then a boy band. Pop-Punky type band. I really enjoyed them! 

Then it was time to wait for One Direction. So, we snapped a quick picture of the shoes I made for us! They were a hit at the show, we got a lot of compliments! 

Then the boys came! And I thought the screaming was bad for the commercials on the screen....that was nothing compared to when the boys actually showed up. I mean seriously! You cannot even imagine. But let me tell you, while they are not my favorite musicians out there, they sure know how to put on a show. I like One Direction, not a fan girl like my sister, but I do enjoy them. But they were so entertaining. And they acted like their age on stage, not like some boys trying to be older. They goofed off, played around, made jokes, danced stupid...just all around a funny little show. And their stage set up was amazing. Huge screens, light shows, the works! My sister cried when they came on. Which, considering the amount of 1D merchandise in her room alone, was not a surprise. She is 13 so I expected nothing less when these little heartthrobs were actually in the same arena as her. I did laugh at her though, couldn't help it. I didn't cry when I saw Hanson and N'SYNC in concert! haha.

 

Here is a little clip from my phone from the concert, my favorite song of theirs! =]

So thats it! That was One Direction. It was a surprisingly good show and we had A LOT of fun! So, hopefully you like the first "A Day in the Life" post! And next Friday I will continue my Curvy Girls OOTD series! =]

Have fun and stay beautiful
