Blossoms

Blossoms was a good gig, however my friends and I waited at one of the two entrances at the venue (and we were the first people there) but got let in after the people, at the other entrances, who weren't the first people, and didn't wait for 7 hours like us. The venue should give wristbands that have numbers on for the first few people in order to let the first people get in first not people who turned up half an hour before the gig started. Blossoms was an interactive band and greeted fans who waited outside for ages. Rory Wynne the support act was very friendly and approachable when I met him after the gig and his performance was very good. His passive attitude towards the person who insulted him during his performance made him a more likable person. Especially the fact that his performance after that remained great. Cabbage was good but their stage stunt was very confusing though they were very entertaining.

I consider myself bit of a fan of Blossoms and this was my 4th time seeing them live, ‎however I can’t say I was particularly blown away by them at this gig. I did enjoy the ‎gig and each song was catchy, delivered effortlessly with the crowd singing along ‎especially to Blow. The thing for me however was when lead singer Tom Ogden ‎asked the crowd if it was ok to slow things down and I thought to myself it probably ‎needs speeding up. ‎

They have a good catalogue of songs, perfect for radio probably and I like each one ‎but when it came to playing them live I personally thought there was a slight lack of ‎energy and charisma. This is still a band in their infancy to a degree however and ‎they are on a roll so I am sure they will get better and better. ‎

I became aware of Blossoms about a year ago, heard a few songs on the radio but never really listened to their first album but I absolutely loved ‘I Can’t Stand It’, the first release of their new album ‘Cool Like You’ so when I saw they were performing at the O2 Forum Kentish Town I booked a couple of tickets and so glad I did.

They were sat next to us in the restaurant before the gig and they are such nice guys.

Incredibly impressed with their performance, musically and vocally they were flawless, the guitar changes were slick. I would say this is the best live performance I’ve ever seen, in 25 years of concert going. They seem to have an huge stage presence and calm maturity, I hope they go far.

Will definitely be keeping an eye out for future gigs.

Ok ... so the 3rd time ive seen The Blossoms and still not sure. Twice supporting The Charlatans who are just Fantastic live and now headlining at Keele. They are certainly more polished ... more professional and thank the Lord the anarexic lead singer seemed to enjoy himself. But OMG the lead guitar bloke ... boy ... needs a lesson in how to smile ... He was sullen the first time I saw Blossoms worse 2nd time and just awful to witness this time around. I like to see a band enjoy themselves ... such as recently witnessed Pigeon Detectives at Stoke Sugarmill....
The sell out crowd loved it but I was .... unmoved.

Seen Blossoms 3 times now and - ok - so each time the gig has been quite similar ie Tom Ogden asks the audience if any of them have ever been dumped by their girlfriend/boyfriend, although generally there isn't much chat with the crowd.

However, there's something about the catchy melodies that makes me want to see them again and,judging by the crowd response, they seemed to be enjoying the music too. Their sound at the most recent gig at The Roundhouse, London, did sound a bit heavier towards the end and I definitely liked a lot.

Blossoms are the best band from stockport the gig was so brilliant I love Tom Ogden Joe Donovan Josh Dewhurst Charlie Salt and Myles Kellock I was hoping to meet the band but sadly I didn't get a chance I a so upset angr6 and very very gutted and I still am very sad of not meeting or talking to me I wished I lived in stockport so I could of been near my favourite boys I need a backstage pass how can i get one please please help in am in desperate need of meeting blossoms I need them.

I've seen Blossoms 4 or 5 times but this time at Brixton Academy, they were definitely more slick with more lighting and improved sound quality. However, there is very little chat between songs but they do get the crowd on their side immediately. If you like a good indie type band then I recommend Blossoms.

Will definitely see them again. It's good to see how they are progressing.

it was the best experience of my intire life, such an amazing atmosphere. Blossoms were absolutely incredible!!! The support acts weren't really my cup of tea, Rory Wynne was really rude; good music but he put me off. Cabbage we're okay, not really what i'm into but semi-good music. Overall, really good venue and amazing music to go with it, great night!!!

"I need time to heal this heart, unspoken, broken. I keep myself awake at night thinking of ways to make it right". When I listen to Blossoms I feel spring in my heart and soul. But when they hit the stage the effect doubles or even triples. Tenderness of their songs calms and heals, and I have nothing else to wish for.

The Stockport five put on a great show, with Tom owning the stage as a great front man and the rest of the boys acing their roles in the band. They succeeded in getting the crowd going and getting the whole place singing their hearts out. All in all it was an absolutely class night I'd recommend to anyone.
