PARAMORE! 2.9.13

 Wow, wow. Just wow! I went to see Pararmore in the O2 Arena, Dublin on Monday and oh my God, it was brilliant! I mentioned that I was loving their new album in my May Favourites which you can read here, so I was super excited to see them live, again. I've seen Paramore live 4 times now and they just get better every single time.
 Paramore shows always have an electric atmosphere at them because they're such an energetic band and I think most bands feed off the crowd's energy when they play so the electricity bounces off everyone and just gets everyone moving. The thing I love most about Paramore is Hayley's voice, and I know how important the instruments are to a band and how it takes a group of people to form a band but Hayley's voice is just so strong and there's just something about it, she can use her voice really lightly in some songs that could bring you to tears but also use it very heavily which would have the completely opposite affect. And the fact that she can jump around a stage for nearly 2 hours and still have the breathe in her to sing with such force is rather impressive! Of course the other band members, Jeremy and Taylor, are very important as well. As a team they just work so well together to produce this amazing music that they can perform to perfection, without a doubt.

 Most Paramore fans will know that the band have lost 2 members and have been working on their newest album for a long time so they haven't had the easiest of paths but to see them come back on top after everything is really inspiring, especially to teenagers because we have most of our lives ahead of us, so to have such great role models to look up to is a tremendous thing. Also, the lyrics to the songs are very inspiring and teach you to persevere with what you want and to keep trying. The set list to Paramore concerts always include an array of songs from every album which is good if you're only a fan of one or two albums. And the finale to a Paramore concert is always spectacular and something to definitely look forward to.
 Over all, Paramore never fail to put on an amazing show that everyone will enjoy, I've seen really young kids at their concerts and once I saw a family on a nice outing at a show! They're a band most people know, whether you're aware of it or not. Everyone should check them out if you don't know who they are and next time they're playing a show near you maybe pop in and see what it's like, I can guarantee you'll enjoy yourself. I took a few pictures of the show but they were on my phone so please excuse the bad, blurry quality. As always, thanks for reading :)
