Hello!
Last Saturday I went down to Bristol to see The Midnight Beast perform at Dot to Dot Festival which stretches across Bristol, Manchester and Nottingham.
If you don't know who The Midnight Beast are, then they are a comedy band from South-West London, who based their career around a parody of Tik Tok by Kesha, which was uploaded to youtube and then it accidentally turned into a career for them, they have also had two self-titled series on E4.
Anyway, I went to meet my friend Gem at temple meads in Bristol, who I had met through the band on twitter and i had skyped numerous times beforehand, however on the way down to Bristol, because of the bank holiday and the festival going on, a hour and a half journey turned into a three hour one.. let me tell you, half an hour to do three miles was not fun at all.
Heres a screenshot of how bad the traffic was down the M5
By the time we had made it to the venue at about 2 - 2:15 and collected our wristbands, we thought that we was extremely late and that we had no chance of getting to the front or meeting the boys at all.
We asked security how many people had turned up to the venue yet, as the doors were supposed to have opened an hour before we got there so we wasn't surprised that no-one was queueing up outside, and they said that neither any of the bands or fans had actually turned up yet!
We went in at around 3:30pm as the first band was cancelled so there was more time to kill than there would have been in the beginning. The security said that we wouldn't be aloud into the actual room until 4pm, but it turned out we were let in at ten to four anyway.
The first band came on at 4:30 and played a half an hour set, and then there was half an hour break before the next act came on and it carried on like that for two more acts, I will list them below:

The show was really good and i bruised my arms from the barrier at the front, which is currently making typing painful at the moment!
After the show me and Gem rushed out to make sure we could try and meet the boys afterwards

So we managed to meet them afterwards, and as always they are such lovely boys and really take their time with meeting you and never rush you!
I hope you enjoyed this post! I just had to share my happiness :D
I will leave you with some of my favourite photo's i managed to take from the concert :)
