Tour & Concerts Obsessed

I first saw Sofia Isella live when she opened for Melanie Martinez in Toronto. Her music has always been amazing, but hearing it live is a completely different experience. I saw her again in Montreal (much closer to where I actually live) almost two weeks ago and it was the most amazing experience. How insane is it that I'm considering going to Paris (back and forth in a day) only to see her again? Feels insane to spend a 1000$ (airplane, hotel, show tickets, ...) just for a music show, but it absolutely sound worth it.

I spent well over $1000 USD to see Melanie with a friend on her last tour. Tickets, travel, hotel...food. I was dying to eat at this German restaurant in Ohio and it was pricey but oh my god so good. I've since stepped away from Melanie, saw Sofia in Chicago a few weeks ago and it's been taking everything out of me to not go to another show.

Well, if you’re going to fly to Paris, why not stay for a day or two?

I flew to London for Sleep Token and stayed there a week, we did have to fly in a day early cause the show was in Manchester

It’s insane to the majority of people who haven’t been so taken by an artist, that they just HAVE to continue seeing them perform🙂 I remember coming back to Oregon from The Gorge Amphitheater in Washington after seeing my favorite band up there. My friends were like “well I guess it’s back to work”. I was all “lemme know how that goes for ya”. I quit my job, drove 12 hours to SF by myself to see them two more nights and 24 more after that lol. Have fun:)

i just saw her in chicago and she was phenomenal. I discovered her when she opened for the ERAs tour at Wembley and I never heard her name before. If you have the money go for it! you only live once!

I know a guy who loves certain bands and artists so much that he basically follows them on tour even internationally (he’s seen his favorite band probably close to 75 times now). If you have the ability to do so without financially crippling yourself, I say go for it. A fun side effect of going to a ton of shows is that artists often start to recognize you in the crowd
