Bowling For Soup - Bournemouth 02 Academy

 Bowling for Soup are a band that take me back to my teenage years. Having formed 28 years ago, this band have truly stood the test of time and are arguably masters of their craft. They are currently on their Surf the UK tour all around the UK and came to Bournemouth to show the sunny seaside town how to party like they've never partied before. 

This tour they brought their pals The DollyRots, Matt Stocks on DJ duties and the legends that are Lit along for the ride. We decided to bring our own buddy in the shape of Max who was beyond excited to see a band that he absolutely loves on stage. Heading to the Bournemouth O2 Academy, Boscombe, we couldn't wait to rock out.

Stand Atlantic - Electric Ballroom

I am one of those people that still listens to the same music that they did when they were 14/15. It's not that new music isn't good, it's just I don't have time like I did when I was younger to sit and listen to every new band to find that diamond in the rough. Sometimes though my Spotify playlist throws a new song into the mix and I find an absolute headbanger of a tune. 

That's what happened when we discovered Stand Atlantic. An Australian band that sing songs that just transport me back to standing in a gig venue as a 15 year old, screaming along to songs at the top of my lungs. So when Scott surprised me with tickets to see them in London, you can bet I was excited! Alas the weather wanted to prevent us from going (it was the weekend of the the storm to end all storms), but in all honesty, we were ready to battle whatever weather in order to be at the Electric Ballroom.

McFly - Young Dumb Thrills Tour review - Bournemouth BIC

 

McFly are one of those bands that have been part of my life for as long as I can remember loving music. They have somehow been around for 18 years and that makes me feel so incredibly old that I can't actually believe it. 

I'm one of those parents that let's their child find their own musical interests, but definitely spent those formative years playing their own favourite songs and bands on loop to try and get some stuck in their head! Fortunately it worked a treat and Max shares most musical interests with me and Scott, whilst also finding new music and bands to interest us too!

Way back in 2019, McFly announced that they would be going on a tour and coming to the BIC in Bournemouth. Of course I had to have tickets. I have yet to miss a tour in those 18 years they have been around, and of course when the date was finally rescheduled for 2021 we decided to bring Max along for the ride. And boy was it a wild one!
