ON 5 May 2017, we headed over to
the Liverpool Arena and Convention Centre for what was to become 1 of the
best nights yet this year, in Liverpool's music calendar.

Just before the show started, we had the
amazing privilege of meeting the Norwegian pop duo,
Marcus and
Martinus back stage, as they got ready
to warm up the crowds for the Vamps. The twin brothers, Marcus Gunnarsen and
Martinus Gunnarsen, are aged 15 and are 2 of the nicest acts we have had the
privilege to meet. Not only are they down to Earth, but so are the parents,
who, unlike most UK and US pop artist's parents, are not pushy at all. These
2 lads are well worth keeping an eye on and keep your ears ready to hear
M&M buzzing over the airwaves in the UK
very soon. Already the lads have released several albums and the lads stint
as a support act for The Vamps '#MiddleOfTheNightTour' will
definitely help them to brake into the UK market. Check out their
website to find out more!

Support on the night also came from
Sabrina
Carpenter, an American singer,
songwriter and actress.
Sabrina who as just turned 18 also
delivered an amazing set. This young lady knows how to perform and boy 'oh'
boy, sorry girl 'oh' girl, can she perform...
But not finished, the warm up acts keep playing, with a band from Los
Angeles, California,
The
Tide.
It is worth noting that The Tide are currently signed to The Vamps' new
record label, so expect big things of this group...
Then finishing off the support acts,
New
Hope
Club who have a very interesting sound.

Well all special occasions need to end
with a bang and you can't get more of a bang than The
Vamps. This British pop rock band,
consisting of Brad Simpson, James McVey, Connor Ball and Tristan Evans,
knows how to put on a show. With an extremely good warm up, thanks to the
amazing support acts, it was hard to think the night could get any better...
But with true British style, the lads pushed up the volume and the
entertainment level went stratospheric.
If this is a warm up for the World Tour,
they did not need the:- 'Wake Up World Tour' last year
(2016)... This is was far more of a show than most bands do in a lifetime.
We have no idea how The
Vamps could
Tweet after the show, as they
must have been warn out! But they somehow they did, saying:- 'Thank
you Liverpool! Amazing crowd! #PhotoOfTheNight'
Well from all of us who attended in Liverpool, a very big 'thank you'
for bringing such an amazing night to the Liverpool
ACC.
Also Liverpool's Britains Got Talent 2017 dancers
JustUs also attended the show. It
appears they thought the same as us as after the show they said on
Twitter:- 'We had an amazing time
at the @TheVampsband concert! Thank you so much @TheVampsJames for getting
us so many tickets, so grateful'
