Better Than Words

I have been a fan of One Direction for two and a half years and was never able to get a hold of tickets for any concert.  But that finally changed when tickets for their Where We Are Tour went on sale back in December.  After losing so many sets of tickets, my dad was finally able to get four tickets to see One Direction at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

Now, I'm not used to nose bleed seats.  Every concert I have ever been to I have been close.  For example, I was fourth row to see Bryan Adams, 15 feet from Justin Bieber, and 20 feet from the Jonas Brothers.  I guess you could say my dad spoils me.

That was unfortunately not the case last night.  We were section 335, row 24 - there were 26 rows in section 335.


But that didn't stop me from going crazy.

5 Seconds of Summer opened for the boys and they were great.  They also went on at like 7:00 on the dot.
  1. Eighteen
  2. Heartbreak Girl
  3. Don't Stop
  4. Teenage Dream (Katy Perry cover)
  5. Amnesia
  6. Beside You
  7. What I Like About You (Romantics cover)
  8. Good Girls
  9. She Looks So Perfect
I actually lost my voice before One Direction even went on stage from screaming so much during 5SOS' performance.

I also spent $75 on merchandise.  I bought a 5 Seconds of Summer shirt and a One Direction tour shirt.

Okay, Harry looks absolutely fabulous in the big picture on the shirt... not that he ever looks bad, because he doesn't.  I'm just saying.

And now for the main event.

One Direction was, like their song, "Better Than Words."

Now, you're going to think I'm insane because there is no way you already thought that of me.  When One Direction came out at the beginning of the show, when I saw Harry, my legs started shaking, I started crying, and I was hyperventilating.  It got to the point where my friend kept asking if I was okay.

They performed nineteen songs:
  1. Midnight Memories (Midnight Memories)
  2. Little Black Dress (Midnight Memories)
  3. Kiss You (Take Me Home)
  4. Why Don't We Go There? (Midnight Memories)
  5. Rock Me (Take Me Home)
  6. Don't Forget Where You Belong (Midnight Memories)
  7. Live While We're Young (Take Me Home)
  8. C'mon, C'mon (Take Me Home)
  9. Right Now (Midnight Memories)
  10. Through the Dark (Midnight Memories)
  11. Happily (Midnight Memories)
  12. Little Things (Take Me Home)
  13. Moments (Up All Night)
  14. Strong (Midnight Memories)
  15. Better Than Words (Midnight Memories)
  16. Alive (Midnight Memories)
  17. One Thing (Up All Night)
  18. Diana (Midnight Memories)
  19. What Makes You Beautiful (Up All Night)
And four encore:
  1. You & I (Midnight Memories)
  2. Story of My Life (Midnight Memories)
  3. Little White Lies (Midnight Memories)
  4. Best Song Ever (Midnight Memories)
Harry does this thing at the beginning of "Better Than Words" where he flicks his head back and spits water into the air.  I DIDN'T GET IT ON VIDEO so here's one from YouTube:


All five of them sounded perfect.  You would expect me to say that because I am a huge fan, but I really mean it.  Liam and Zayn had beautiful harmonies during "Moments," too.

Here are some of my pictures.  Videos may be posted on a later date, they just take forever to upload onto Blogger.
