Jessie J - Alive Tour
Liverpool Echo Arena
Lawson
There was a girl before these Olivia Somerlyn who was quite good but people weren't really that interested in her.
Lawson were really good, they got a great reception as the lead singer Andy (who I love) is from Liverpool!

So last night I finally went to see Jessie on her Alive Tour which was postponed from March. (I bought these tickets last June so it's been a long time coming!)
She was as always amazing, I had to hold back the tears so many times! I didn't think she would make me cry as this is the 2nd time I've seen her. I seen her on her first tour the Heartbeat Tour when she came 2 years ago. (Photos at the end of the last tour). She is definitely one of the best female vocalists around. Being completely honest I'm not that into the album Alive until last night when I heard the songs live which is partly why I wasn't expecting the tears. I do still prefer her first album Who You Are but she is one of the few artists who is so much better live which shows she is a true artist.
I was meant to be going with Holly again to see her but she has an ear infection so couldn't go so I actually ended up going on my own & meeting my cousin at the end! I really need to make some new friends who have the same music taste as me as no-one wanted to come with me! I queued up outside the arena from 5pm it was freeeezing!! I forgot to take an outfit post but I wore this with a cardi, hoodie & my leather jacket, a pair of socks, thick denier tights & a wooly pair of tights, my scarf & gloves & I was so so cold! I couldn't feel my face! But then there were girls who were just in dresses no tights, no jacket!! Which made me feel even more cold looking at them! They must've thought you get to queue inside which they really should do!
I was talking to these two girls who were in the queue with me & their friends had be queuing since 2pm the day before outside the arena! They were given a room in the hotel for the night, then ran to Sports Direct to buy a tent to camp out! So were right at the door. I then looked at tweets when I got back & seen that Jessie's manager gave them tickets to the VIP bit!! SO SO JEALOUS! But there is no way I could have queued from 2pm the day before even if I didn't have uni!!
I managed to get 2nd/3rd row yet again but there was a VIP area where people paid like £100s for their tickets then a catwalk that surrounded their bit then us normal people. But she was so good she made sure she went to every part of the stage. It felt very intimate considering it was an arena!
I think she sounds so different in real life than when she does tv/radio interviews when she speaks & sings. She pulled out all the stops with 5 dress changes, confetti canons & wind machines. When she went to get changed she played videos on the big screen. I didn't even realise till now that each section of the show spelt out A-L-I-V-E which matched each dress change to the songs giving out messages!
I also took a few videos for me to relive it all again! She didn't have any special guests which I was quite surprised. She sang all the songs herself with her 3 backing vocal girls. On the last tour she brought out Devlin who was one of the support acts to help her sing Price Tag. She interacted with us so much & even said she spoke loads to us compared to the others she's done. She was so funny trying to do a scouse accent! I'll shut up now & just finish off by saying if you get the chance to see Jessie you should go & see her! I know quite a lot of people don't like her but you can't say she's hasn't got an amazing voice & is amazing with her fans! When I seen her last time we waited for her to come out as it was much smaller intimate gig & she made sure she signed EVERYTHING before she left even with security pushing her!
