5 Seconds of Summer

The Sounds Live Feels Live concert here in Cologne, Germany was the best concert I've ever went to! Also, it was the best day of my life.

I had a standing soundcheck ticket and I went to the venue very early so that I can be close to 5SOS. And guess what? I ACTUALLY WAS IN THE FRONT ROW!

First of all I want to say something to the Soundcheck. If you think about experiencing soundcheck, you imagine a lot of stuff and so did I! I thought it would be just amazing and personal... and it was! But even more amazing than I thought. The feeling you have when you're so close to them and there aren't that many people and you just get to look at them and hear them talking about so many things is just unbelievable!
5SOS said that the questions were all very good. (For example, "What does happiness mean to you?" - they said a lot to this question though.)

IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO GO TO A 5SOS SOUNDCHECK, DO IT! THE MONEY IS WORTH IT, I PROMISE!

As I mentioned before, I was in front row and I can happily say that Í didn't get pushed or anything during the concert.
It was the third time seeing them and definitely the best. It's awesome to see how much they've grown and how far they've come! Their voices sound so much better and they seem to be so much more confident on stage than they used to be in 2014 when I first saw them.

My personal highlight of the concert was to hear Jet Black Heart live because that's my favorite song by 5sos. Especially the lyrics "The blood in my veins is made up of mistakes." mean a lot to me because I made a lot of mistakes in my life but without these mistakes, I wouldn't be the person I am today.
As you might know, there's this worldwide project for SLFL going on where you write down " I Am..." on a poster and say something preferable meaningful (if you want, something that 5sos helped you with.) So I wrote down " I am a girl whose blood in her veins is made up of mistakes" and during the chorus I think Luke read it and when Calum's part came on, Luke was on this kind of 'catwalk' (I don't know how you call that part of the stage haha I'm sorry) and that was where I was standing and yeah so when Calum started singing "The blood in my veins..", Luke was right in front of me and looked at me while singing this part! I'm so happy that I recorded this so everytime I'm sad, I'm just gonna watch the video! Just thinking about it makes me very emotional..

5SOS are so talented, they do not only sing great, they all also play instruments! And believe me, going to one of their concerts is such a great experience with so much fun and a lot of emotions.

Oh my god. Should I say more? It was overwhealming I had such good sits but holy cow, if you think they're all cute, you should see them in person. First of all Luke is JUST LEGS AND HAIR. Ashton HAS SUCH HUGE ARMS LIKE WOW. Calum is just pretty, he can't help it, he's just pretty and his veins when he plays the bass is just the best thing in the world. But I am missing someone, MR Michael Gordon Clifford. Everyone calls him the ugly one, or rat, ALL THE TIME. Well guess what, HE IS THE HOTTEST ONE FROM THE 4 OF THEM. I SWEAR TO GOD MICHAEL IS JUST MADE BY THE HANDS OF JESUS. He is even paler than he looks in the photos and his lips are SO RED, and then he has this amazing Green eyes you want to look at them all day and never sleep again. Anyway, they all seriously know how to rock those instruments. Ashton slams his drums like it's the last time he's ever gonna play. Michael is a master in the guitar, he was literally meant to be with a guitar in his hands. Luke plays amazing and he sings like an angel that fell from heaven and Calum beats the crap out of his bass. Michael was jumping during most of the songs but like jumping while playing the guitar while throwing his long legs at the air while turning in circles, he was just driving himself crazy. I felt the concert was short but when I counted the number of songs they sang it was pretty good actually, 17 songs. THEY SOUND EVEN BETTER LIVE THAN IN THE STUDIO VERSIONS OF THEIR SONGS. It's mind blowing how real they are. No autotune. Nothing. They're just genuine and unique. At the end Ashton threw his drum sticks at the crowd and Michael threw his guitar picks and the towels they used to dry the sweat and a wáter bottle. They thanked us so much and said that they're probably coming to Mexico next year again in a bigger place if posible. And I just can't wait to see them again. They rocked the living crap out of the stage and I couldn't be prouder because you know you're succesfull when you come from the other side of the world at the age of 18 (ash 20) and sold out 2 dates IN MEXICO CITY. I feel like a proud mom. Anyway, all you need to know is that 5 Seconds Of Summer is one of the few actually genuine and talented bands that don't need an extra band to play for them or don't need to fix their voices in their songs, or don't need to have 5 perfumes and 10 albums to be succesfull, they're real. So yeah, I had an amazing time and everyone should know what's like to see 5SOS live. Genuine.

5 Seconds Of Summer/ One Direction, All of the members of 5 Seconds of Summer have so much talent, from the ability to sing, play acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, to the drums. These Australian lads are funny, down to earth, and so in touch with what making and performing music is really about. I love them! They talked about how much they love Canada and some things that stood out for them, but most of all they said their thank yous.. Which really meant something. Luke Hemmings (18) is the lead vocals and lead guitarist. Ashton Irwin (20) drummer and vocals. Calum Hood (18) vocals and bass guitar. Michael Clifford (18) vocals and electric/ acoustic guitar. They are all so talented! They put on an amazing show!
One Direction,
I have been a fan of One Direction for 2 years, everyday of those 2 years wishing to see them in concert. When I finally got the chance to fly from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Toronto to see them play at the Rogers Center.. I was ecstatic! The show kept you on your feet from beginning, to the end. They had all kinds of cool lights and attractions on their stage that kept your eyes totally fixed on them! As well as huge screens to capture the boys up close and so that the stadium could better see them. By far, the biggest and loudest concert I have ever been to.. But absolutely amazing! I would do it again in a heartbeat.
They went from The X Factor, to a stadium tour that sold out the day after the tickets went on sale! These boys have been a huge hit for 4 years! Let's hope for 4 more amazing years.
I reccomend seeing these boys! (5 Seconds Of Summer, One Direction)
They can REALLY sing!! They always let the crowd sing with them in some parts of their songs and it sounds incredible!
I love them so much :)

5 seconds of summer changed my life on 4.25.14. Their shows were so powerful and inspiring to me and I think everybody should know that. For some bands, the way they sound on the radio doesn't sound like it does in concert, live. 5 Seconds Of Summer sound EXACTLY the same live and that's an amazing thing to do. They may not realize it but it's amazing the way they can just sing a couple songs and have millions and millions of fans head over heels for them. When I went to their concert I remember that Ashton just walked around the stage after a couple songs, talked to us about how inspiring we were to them and then pointed to me and I just couldn't stop screaming. After that when he was walking back, he did a cartwheel and I remember how loud it was in there because everybody was so excited. The thing that I want most right now at this point in my life is to go and meet/see them on my birthday 8.24.14, which is also the date they are performing at the MTV Video Music Awards, and if I actually win tickets I will be completely honored to meet Luke, Ashton, Micheal, and Calum. I know it's hard for them to be moving place to place to place but I honestly think they are having the best time anyone can ever have at this point of their lives. If people are wondering if they should see them live in concert then DO IT! THEY ARE AMAZING PLUS Y.O.L.O AND WHY NOT SEE THEM. I hope whoever reads this will be as excited i am right now just thinking about them. With 5 Seconds Of Summer, NEVER assume they are a boy band because their not, their a pop rock band and the best you with ever see perform.

I went to the Sydney show of the Rock Out With Your Socks Out Tour 2015, on 20 June 2015.

I arrived at the venue, Allphones Arena around 5pm, I bought merch (tour t-shirt) at one of the many merch stands situated around the outside of the arena. The venue opened around 5:30pm but I waited around outside, talking to people and went in around 6:30pm.

I was there with friends so we got a bite to eat, doors opened at 7:00pm. We entered the arena around 7:15pm and got settled in our AMAZING seats. Music was been played and also the band 'Hey Violet' was being advertised and their music videos were being played.

State Champs, the opening act came on at 7:30pm and completely rocked out with their original songs. Their set finished at 8:00pm.

5 Seconds of Summer came on at 8:30pm. They began with 'End Up Here'. The crowd was pumping and really excited.

The crowd was jamming with 5SOS, the vibe and atmosphere was amazing.

At one point, Harry (Ashton's little brother) was invited onto stage and he completely shredded Michael's guitar, it was sick!

The crowd was at its loudest for their biggest hits; 'She Looks So Perfect', 'Don't Stop', Their cover of Green Day's 'American Idiot' and of course, the tearjerker, 'Amnesia'.

All in all, I had a blast and I'm sure everyone in that arena felt the same. It was one of the best nights of my life.

I would definitely recommend 5 Seconds of Summer in concert. So if you're contemplating whether or not to buy tickets to a show of theirs, stop, don't hesitate and BUY THOSE TICKETS to HAVE THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE!!

After the consert i was left with mixed feelings. DON BROCO blew my mind! Before the show i had only ever heard their music on youtube and they reminded me of Lower than Atlantis.(Not that thats a bad thing, i love LTA) But because of the fact that i didnt know what to expect, and that i had never heard of the band before, my expectations were not that high. But at the show i loved it; their energy, wicked sound, the vocals were awesome(one of my friend compared the singers abilities to Hayley Williams`) and overall the band seemed to love what they were doing - unlike a certain headlining band.
As usual the songs were performed to "perfection" and the screaming girls were ecstatic. Still something that everyone of them but Michael G Clifford on lead guitar seemed to be missing, was the energy and joy on stage. Calum just seemed plain sad to the point where my thoughts during the show was;it looks like he needs a hug, should i go up there and hug him(i stood in GC2). Luke seemed tired and i was actually waitng for him to yawn loudly into the mic. Ashton seemed annoyed or mad, and to me and my friends we were just waiting for him to take a bieber and run off stage.
But all in all i loved their sound even though all that came out of luke, calum and ashton seemed rehearsed and robotic, i loved the bigscreen, the songs that were played inbetween the sets and before the shows, and i loved DON BROCO sooooo much. So thanks 5sos for rocking and that was my experience.

The 5 Seconds of Summer Show was nothing but purely magical. I don’t have words to describe it properly. But I’ve never seen an Artist as passionate about anything as those four men on that small Stage that was full of Energy the whole show. They didn’t seem tired from touring many months they just put on the best show they could for you, they surely did without a doubt. You could feel the connection between the Artists and the fans that was unbelievable. That feeling of love and comfort wouldn’t leave the whole time it seriously felt like home. We (the fans) sang every little word back, we danced, smiled, laughed, screamed, cried and had the best time of their life. It made me feel alive it made me feel happy and welcome and I felt like I’m not being judged. I felt free. I could feel that they put everything they had in every single song and you could feel how much it meant to them. It was for sure the best Concert I’ve ever been to. It was a truly beautiful night with a whole bunch of different mix of emotions. I’d definitely recommend for anyone to go to a 5 Seconds of Summer show. No matter if you’re a fan or not, no matter how old you are or if you’d never listen to they’re music before. You won’t regret it. Their music and music genre is something special and out of this world. 5 Seconds of Summer will make sure you have a brilliant time and you’ll definitely enjoy it.

The concert was incredible. I had the VIP Soundcheck Experience so I was one of a couple hundred fans who got the opportunity to be a part of this private "hang out" with 5sos. The band played "If You Don't Know", answered some questions asked by the fans and then ended with their new single "Girls Talk Boys".
For the concert itself, Roy English was the opening act and he was pretty great. When 5sos came on stage, the energy in the arena increased and there was a smile on everyone's face. About two-thirds through the show, Ashton invited everyone to fill in the gaps on the arena floor. He said to jump the barricades if they had to, so the majority of the audience moved closer. The floor section had basically turned into a mosh pit.
After playing "What I Like About You" Luke got a bit annoyed at security for moving fans back to their seats, as the whole point was for everyone to be up front and have the best experience possible.
Usually the band would go off stage for a couple minutes and then come back on for the encore, but because of the situation, this time they were forced to continue on.
I'm sure that they got in trouble for breaking rules, but it was definitely worth it.
They made a large arena feel just as personal as a small venue, and each person at the show had the time of their life.
This was certainly one concert I'll never forget.

Last night was (as Michael would say) F***ING AWESOME!

JESSARAE was an absolutely amazing support act, will definitely be looking out for his headline tour dates. For those of you who don't know who he is, he is Steven R McQueen's (Jeremy in The Vampire Diaries and Steve McQueen's nephew) half brother.

He has such an incredible singing ability and great stage pressence.

His original songs Nobody's Human and Stand In The Rain both had the crowd going.

When 5 Seconds of Summer came on stage, the heat and noise level rose.

The opening song was so moving, which was followed by all their hits as well as favourites from both albums, as well as songs such as Heartache On The Big Screen and Disconnected.

As with all Birmingham concerts, there was many laughs. With Michael challenging Calum to performing one of the songs with a bottle cap, instead of his plectrum.

And Michael coming up with a song invovling the city's name. (Last year they sang a song entitled Birmingham Smells Like Ham) this year the song was I Shaved My Beard For Birmingham, (which was to honour the fact Michael has finally shaved his beard.

These boys are all very talented I love it when Michael and Luke play each others guitars. :)

Can't wait for next year boys. BEST NIGHT EVER! And that Ain't No Lie #AintNoLie #SLFLBirmingham #SoundsLiveFeelsLive

5 Seconds of Summer is a pop-rock (wanna be punk rock) band that consists of Luke Hemmings (guitar, vocals), Michael Clifford (guitar, vocals), Calum Hood (bass, vocals), and Ashton Irwin (drums, vocals). You can expect a very fun show with loads of energy. 5SOS are probably better live than on their album. They always interact with the crowd to make sure the fans are having the time of their lives.

Be prepared to be amazed by these young lads' talents. By the time you leave the concert, you'll have the biggest smile on your face, but you won't be able to hear a thing due to the fact you and everyone else in the venue will be screaming so loud.

I've now seen 5SOS three times in concert and I will be attending two more concerts this year. Every time I see them live, they're even better than before. These cheeky lads will play a catchy tune, like the debut single, "She Looks So Perfect", that just makes you want to dance. Or they'll play a slow song, such as, "Amnesia", that makes your heart flutter because, I mean c'mon, who wouldn't want to see these lovely boys singing about never wanting to ever lose you.

5 Seconds of Summer are trying to bring new music to the world and they're doing an absolutely amazing job at it. They are currently touring with One Direction on their stadium tour.
