One Direction Mania

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years you’ve heard of One Direction or 1D as they are known by their fan base otherwise known as Directioners.
Recently they stopped off in Croke Park, Dublin. Which was also the hometown gig for Niall Horan who hadn’t been home since Christmas due to the crazy work schedule.

I was chaperoning my younger sister who is obsessed with 5 Seconds of Summer and One Direction, I wasn’t prepared to enjoy it as much as I did. I grew up on Blink 182, Nirvana and Guns n’ Roses, I had been extremely scepticle about attending this concert.

Upon arrival we were met by thousands upon thousands of screaming girls and women in general. Overall I was hoping not to enjoy myself but I was very surprised at how much I enjoyed the show. Despite only knowing approximately 3 or 4 songs the show was something else, it was the first big stadium concert I had ever been too usually opting for more intimate indie gigs.

The show went off without a hitch, complete with fireworks, another stage coming out from the ground, dazzling lasers and a stage that looked like a playground. While I haven’t been converted to a directioner just yet, I will give them props for the amazing show they put on, as for their diehard fans it was definitely a show they wont forget for a long time. 20140527-115928.jpg20140527-115948.jpg20140527-115956.jpg20140527-120011.jpg20140527-120022.jpg
