Paramore  - Live - MEN Arena

review by Kiya  - added 29/12/2009

From 16/12/09



 

Like everyone in the room the first 2 bands on the bill were just as forgettable are boring that nobody even tried to take note of their names. But when the lights go down for you me at six, they are welcomed on stage with nothing but screams from both boys and girls, there set is well known singing every release they have had with one song from the upcoming album titled hold me down. The band gets the crowd going and bodies flowing you can tell from the upper tier that this is the start of a truly magical night.

The wait for Paramore seems to go really with everyone sat and stood in anticipation as they can’t wait to the pop punkers burst on stage. When the lights go down the sound of the bands intro is drowned out by the fans screams and those of many who are sitting stamping their feet with excitement.

After the intro comes first single from album ‘Brand new eyes’ titled ‘Ignorance’ you can tell that the bands newer fans are thriving with the bands decision to sing this first. Next comes the song ‘That’s what you get’ during this song lead singer Hayley Williams who has dyed her as blonde as a light bulb voice is drowned out, but does the petite singer mind the answer is a simple no, she smiles and jumps and prompts the crowd to sing the words for her.

Songs such as ‘crush crush crush’, and Twilights’ soundtrack hit ‘Decode’ go down with no trace of William’s voice the crowd are dedicated and seem to be on a mission to sing every word to prove their alliance and devotion to the band.

Slow hits such as ‘The only exception’ and ‘Misguided ghost’ show us that fans of the band are modern with the whole entire arena lighted by not lighters but camera phones. Penultimate song of the night is the bands hit single ‘Misery business’ which gets a already over excited crowd downright sweaty and out of breath from all the moshing

The last song of the evening is the new single ‘Brick by boring brick’ which enables us to the members from all the support bands to come and stage and to the final sing along which proves that the night wasn’t just a concert but it was a room full of friends getting together and showing the world that Paramore are a real people band.
