You'll Find Me Chasing THE WANTED

I had such an awesome time during The Wanted concert last September 14! First off, I really want to thank Tim Yap for giving us the awesome tickets!!

Now, I've been a fan of The Wanted ever since I heard a snippet of their song, All Time Low, in DJ Earworm's Like, OMG Baby (Capital FM Summertime Ball Mashup) Remix of the Top 15 Pop Songs in 2010. It had, at most, just 5 lines but it was enough for me to google them. You can imagine my reaction when I found out that they were coming here for a concert! I was absolutely ecstatic!!

For those of you who don't know, The Wanted is a British-Irish band that was formed back in '09. Jayne Collins, the same woman who put together The Saturdays and Parade, was the one who held the auditions and put these gorgeous men together.

(L-R) Jay McGuiness, Nathan Sykes, Max George, Tom Parker, Siva Kaneswaran

The show started off with the awesome Pioneer Dj, Arra Pascual. It felt more like we were at a party than a concert. She played songs that got everyone in the mood to dance!

After DJ Arra's performance, the audience was getting antsy, people shouting and screaming the moment anybody came on stage. The moment the boys came out, all hell broke loose! The screaming of girls was all anyone could hear (I admit to being part of that screaming). They started off with their song Invincible.

I just have to say that I have the BIGGEST crush on Nathan, and he's the only one in the group that's my age *wink wink*. I went with my best friend, Tin, and we were surprised to see that most of the fans were 11-16 year olds. I assumed that the fan base of The Wanted here in the Philippines were people around my age, but hey, these kids have good taste.

Moving on... I really really enjoyed the concert! I kept shouting and dancing and just really got into it, while my partner in crime, Tin, just stood there watching me, wondering what in the world was happening to me. 

I loved that the boys weren't scared to be themselves and just be goofy, doing little dances to the side and just being funny. You could see that they were comfortable and loved what they were doing. Their performance was also very very good. They had high energy and it was very infectious. It was difficult not to jump up and down and dance to their songs.

Jacqui, my lucky sister, was not only able to go to the Meet and Greet of The Wanted, but during Heart Vacancy, they wanted some of the audience members to go up on stage to sing to. Of course, Max saw my sister in her I love British Boys t-shirt and picked her. I swear she was close to tears as I watched her hug Max and the rest of the group.

They had a group hug which made me laugh cause they all looked so cute!

This is one concert I won't soon forget. Super thank you again to Tim Yap for not only the tickets, which was more than enough, but for the signed Battleground album as well!!!! I absolutely love it! Thank you!
