... in 2018 with my ex like two months after we broke up because we booked the tickets the year before like FOOLS.
I was really heartbroken, and was fantasising hard about us getting back together at the gig, like some sort of 500 Days of Summer tribute act. Alas, it became clear the break up was the right thing to have done for us both.
B&S were incredible as always, they’re a really special band for me. But the above revelation had the potential to ruin my night, and it would have, had I not been positioned in the perfect seat when the band invited audience members up on stage for their final song (Boy with the Arab Strap, obvi). I absolutely leapt at the chance to leave the seat next to my ex early and had a moment of absolute complete joy dancing on that stage.
My friend sat further back took a video of me and it’s truly one of my most prized digital possessions [screenshot attached — that’s me in the red and blue!]. I like to watch it when I’m sad and know that art and dancing will make me better, always <3333
