Jessie J

As this is my first blog post, I just want to take this moment to say hello and my name is Charlotte. I am going to be writing about concerts, music events, premieres and basically anything to do with celebrities. My main purpose of this blog is so I can get experience of writing because I am aiming to become a journalist when I am older and I think this is something I can put my time into which will hopefully help me develop my skills. So I hope you enjoy reading what I post and I am making my first blog post of my experience at the latest concert I attended! 

I recently went to one of the amazingly talented Jessie J's concert at her first arena tour Alive. We had tickets for the 30th October at one of my favorite venues, the o2 Arena in London.

I really enjoyed the show and to kick it off she had an artist from America called Olivia Somerlyn. I didn't really enjoy her because she was singing her own songs but besides that she was quite a decent singer. However most people were more excited to see the other support act which is the well known band and great performers, Lawson. They were really good live and really got the crowd going before Jessie came out. 

It was then time for Jessie to start her performance and she started by singing Big White Room which she sounded incredible at! She was honestly so wonderful and her voice sounds great live with it sounding exactly like how it does on the album. Throughout the show she made a few speeches which I found quite inspirational and she really entertained the crowd throughout the whole concert. She really is so talented and I think she is brilliant for all ages as I saw a whole range of people showing their support there! I really recommend going to see her because she is exceptional!

Despite this, I really did not enjoy the seats I had. We got them quite late on so that's why we ended up with seats at the top and personally I think they were horrible. I am fine with heights but I find the top so steep that it is quite scary to move. This really disappointed me because it meant that I could not get up and dance which I think makes a concert 100% more enjoyable. You can still see quite well but obviously it is tiny and pictures are quite hard to take. I would not recommend the top for anyone who is scared of heights and for anyone who enjoys really going wild at concerts because it is just so hard to do that up the top. I will probably not buy tickets for level 4 anymore as I have sat up there once before as well and this time has completely put me off.
 

My next concert I am going to is on the 8th December so I will aim to write about that once I have been but anyway, thanks for reading!
