@@robertluv133 mmmmmm yes but they tickets were still obtainable and not AS overpriced. But yes, everyone and their dog heard Skinny Love but I’m talking specifically in the pricing and availability of his shows
I’ve been a fan of Sabrina since her girl meets world days and tbh I was only really a fan of her acting stuff I never really listened to her music but when eics came out I gave it a shot and started listening to that and then a few months later I listened to singular act 1 and 2 and loved those too where I live she announced a tour and I thought you know what I’ll give it a shot, she announced January 2023 that she was coming and I thought that I would be able to get tickets because she still wasn’t that big but when I went to go get the tickets at the time they were released I was about 1 second too late and they had sold out and I know it’s not my fault I didn’t get tickets I tried but I’ll kick my self for as long as I’m alive that I couldn’t get tickets at that time cause I’ll probably never see a full concert of hers live, I say that cause I’m going to the capital summertime ball and she’s there but I’d still love to see a single concert of just her
I saw Gracie’s smallest ever concert in Cleveland in 2021 and her largest venue ever in Madrid. Both were amazing but the small, 200 person concert was truly life changing and encapsulated the intimacy of her music that a big venue couldn’t.
This is why I (even though I've never been to one) say that I'd rather go to a more calmer concert/live performance in a cafe/restaurant or something, because a smaller venue, less screamy fans, less phones recording 24/7 blocking the view and a more peaceful experience of actually hearing the artist.
according to this video, she had 4,5m monthly listeners at the time. that is NOT “small” or “undiscovered” at all, you just want to believe you were part of something when you infact, were not.
@@krelium2717 i think they implied that the concert itself was more smaller than the current ones and again, comparing to her like 26M listeners rn, 4.5-5 M listeners is smaller :]
Ive been a conan gray fan since his youtuber days, and ive sadly never gotten to go to a concert, but knowing that he's finally getting the recognition he deserves is amazing, i still wish i couldve experienced one of his early concerts
i went to a conan show before maniac came out and all i can remember is he had a bandana, cuffed jeans, and was telling the people in the balcony (me) that he was broke once too although the tickets were the same price for standing so
Saw BTS in 2015 in Toronto since my friends were into K-pop. Had to begin by lining up so they would one by one sign their autographs on a poster for each of us with this ticket level. Saw them perform on stage from the third row, making eye contact here and there. Got to get high fives with the members right after they performed and were still catching their breaths. Then once they changed, got to take a group photo with about 20 others. Was right next to Jimin, who scared me and the girl next to me when he stuck his head over our shoulders lol and apologized when we jumped. At the time, thought this was a really fun experience overall. Now almost a decade later, they took over North America and the wider world, with the rise beginning in 2016-2017. Truly wild to see their concert in 2018 and notice the differences.
I saw Laufey open for Alexander 23 with just a guitar and a keyboard back in 2021 at a really small venue that held just over 400 people. The tickets for them were under 30 bucks. I was at the front of the "stage" too so I saw her VERY close. Now she's immediately selling out big venues and giving an orchestral performance for them, which is honestly more fitting for her genre of music. But it was nice to experience a stripped/acoustic version of her songs live!
damn this video hit home - international artists rly only come to australia when they're already big, so it's really special to go to small shows when i can. great video and great storytelling too!!
I’m from Melbourne and one of my favourite small and local artists is heleina zara she’s fairly different to Gracie but I would still 100% reccommend her music 🫶
kiwi here - i feel you! they come here even less though because of noise restrictions in auckland which is the only damn city where artists would ever come 😭😭
'no sane person flies to the other side of the world to see an artist live' me sitting here after flying to the other side of the world to see an artist literally last week and literally for the same reason cause i knew it would be probably one of the only chances to see them in a small venue..i ended up sitting first row having the time of my life making it all worth it
the fact that humans will make these sacrifices to go and experience art, it just fills my soul with joy. Music art and the way it connects us together makes everything worth it in this life
its the same with sabrina carpenter - i have been a fan since singular act 1 + a casual listener since evolution and finally managed to see her on her eics tour which cost about £71 so still pretty expensive . i cant imagine how much tickets will cost for any future tours with her newfound stardom😭. seeing ryan beatty in april of this year for only £24 put things into perspective
OMG SAMW FOR ME I've literally been a fan since I was a kid since eyes wide open and I can't go see her concerts because of my parents, when I want to see her in 2 years will I even manage to? I'm so scared I won't be able to
omfg exactly ive been a fan since her first ever single but i just know with her recent blow up n the new tiktok concert culture (going to an artist when u only know the songs on tiktok..) ill never get tiktoks, esp bc of the area i live in. sad stuff
I've been a fan of Sabrina since her GMW days and since she started her music career but I never saw her live but now I will never see her live in the future either 😭 probably
As someone who has been a Gracie fan since she only had minor out and who lives in Australia I got to see her for the first time in January 2024 and it felt like home I got barricade and it was like a dream, I’ve watched her grow up so much and the best thing to see is that she still has not changed she’s still such an amazing kind person with all the fame that has been through at her all at once with the eras tour and she’s still kept her kindness is just beautiful! Hope to get her next tour.
Me too! It's kinda surreal watching her grow so much in recognition but like she deserves it so so much and I'm so so proud of her! Kinda bummed I never saw her prior but I got tickets to Secrets of Us Tour (on the day after my birthday no less) and I am so excited!!
I saw her in 2019 in Vienna in a small venue under/next to the subway at the river (you could hear the train rumble hahaha was funny when she sang happy) ?? and she stared into my soul as I cried about her songs in like the 3rd or second row ever since then I’ve been scared to go to another mitski concert 😭 but 10/10 great experience
If you are fortunate enough to afford it, travelling internationally for a concert is so worth it. Impressed you did it while you were still such a new fan though.
It can even be cheaper, i spent way to much on tickets a bit ago and only realised later it would have been cheaper to fly across the world, hotel, tickets, and flight back than the tickets i got
Wait - I mean I’m really excited about getting into Gracie’s music and everything. But what I really want to hear now is your full story about how you and Erin found each other!
I first saw/heard Chappell Roan in 2017 as an intern at the studio in her hometown (Studio 2100, Springfield MO) where she was recording demos for her debut album. One of the most magical experiences, watching this insanely talented person I had just met with only me and the studio owner in the room. I saw her show the next year and MAYBE 200 people were there. Crazy how times change!
I've been a fan of hers since 2018 when she was just posting songs she wrote on insta and covers on SoundCloud and this is so relatable I'll always miss her being my little secret but I'm so happy for her
That must be a great feeling.🧡 Like you're the OG fan from the very beginning. Wish I was too. I've known her since she put out TIWIFL. But I love her more than anything in this world, I know it sounds crazy but it's true. 😣💔❤
I've never seen your channel before, I don't know who Gracie Abrams is but the topic seemed so interesting that I had to click. And this idea of documenting and reflecting how an artist has changed as a live performer is very fascinating and I think this video was entertaining and interesting!
i saw gracie perform her second show ever in 2021 in san francisco. people were talking with her, interacting, giving her gifts and she would wear/use them on stage. i think with the intimate nature of her songwriting it was so beautiful to experience.
So....Im not sure if you've ever heard of my idea for cousin camp, but man do I hope someone fills ya in quick. Lol. Anyway...good morning....went by Chippewa and the hamster wheel was spinning. You ever see a hamster run and fling itself off the wheel? ADHD at its finest. Jk
these type of vids make me so emotional especially because i'll probably never go to a concert in my entire life. i live in the middle of nowhere in brazil, a country where IF an artist comes to, they only perform in são paulo, which is very far from where i live... still, i'm really happy for you 🥹
This is exactly how the parents feel when their kids growing up , but is something good that the do that . I’m happy for Gracie , she deserves all the best .
This video actually made me emotional! Your storrytelling is so passionate and compelling, thank you for putting into words our shared thoughts. Much love from Brazil. ♥
Hozier did a pop up show at First Ave in MSP and it literally is one of my best concert memories of all time. I’ve seen him 3 times and that was the best because of how intimate it was ❤
I've been following Stefani Germanotta since she played small bars in NYC. I found her creative and thought she had a great voice. I lost track of her for about a year and when I finally found her again, she was Lady Gaga. And I've been a little monster ever since. 🐾🆙️💓
ugh this really hits close to home however i have had to see my fav small artists just through my screen as literally not a single small artist comes to australia :')
I cannot explain how excited I was that Gracie was the opener for my Eras tour concert. I was already in love with her music and it was great watching as the people around me fell in love with her too.
i feel you 🥺 seeing gracie grow so much has been both filling me with pride for her and breaking my heart... knowing she's never gonna be our little secret anymore lowkey hurts so baddd
(Not on the topic of the video) but I noticed you have a Daisy Jones and the Six vinyl in the background and I thought that was so cool! I really like Daisy Jones and the Six too!
oh my god I'm sobbing. I was front row at the Glasgow show and it changed my life and from there watching her grow has been equal parts beautiful and heartbreaking. she is so special.
yesss talking about discovering an artist before they blow up, i saw billie eilish in 2018 and it was one of the best concerts ever and now im finally gonna see her oct this year and im so excited!!!!
Well, relatively speaking. Though that might not be a very small number, but it kind of is for the pop genre, that is. And he's only comparing her present success to when she started doing her first ever concerts.
I think the main issue with new pop artists coming from tiktok is the girls in the crowd scream everything at the top of their lungs so you can’t hear the artist at all. And then they video literally everything so all you see are phones and all you hear are people screaming terribly. I wish that concert etiquette for Gen Z was significantly better.
i found a rly small austrailian band that had 10k monthly listeners when i found them over a year ago and now they have 30 or 40k after opening for the jonas brothers and im so sad but their tickets are still only $15 which is a slay
Never heard of Gracie. Just now listened to her most listened to song on RUclips Music, "I miss you, I'm sorry", and didn't recognize it. This is not a brag. I'm incredibly ignorant of today's popular music. Will I become a Gracie fan? Probably not, but I'm glad to have broadened my horizons by hearing unfamiliar music. Thanks for adding another wrinkle to my brain! I hope you have fun at the next concert!
I've heard of Gracie Adams here and there from my recommendations (I'm also a fellow RUclips Music user). I'm into broadening my horizons too. If all goes according to plan, I'm going to a concert within a few months!
i have seen gracie 5 times. one of them was at an invite only secret event with less than 100 people. gracie is my favourite artist to see live but i gotta say seeing her in 2022 was the best experience i have had. 800 people fit in the venue and it was the perfect amount of intimacy. even tho i loved her last tour i got to say that the shows were better the closer i was to her just because you need that feeling of intimacy with her music. i was so lucky to have the vip soundcheck at some of my shows at tiwifl and at the good riddance tour and the less people she is singing for the more the songs hit. i will miss these little shows so much. ESPECIALLY, because there wont be soundcheck for the new tour
Same goes for me with Olivia Rodrigo!! From Bizaardvark to Guts world tour!!!! Although i hv never seen Olivia live it feels that we had been together all this time!!!
I started listening to Gracie Abrams in 2021 and she was my favorite artist that year. I listen to a lot of emerging artists, and I want to support them and help their careers to take off, but I do miss the intimate concerts. I have also seen Gracie perform 3 times, during the same 3 years you did: 2022, 2023, and 2024. The venues' capacities went from 951 to 1,400 to 8,500, respectively. The tickets went from not being sold out to selling out within seconds on Ticketmaster. In 2023, I went to 27 music shows. In 2024, I went to 30. Listening to music and going to concerts is my #1 hobby, by far. I relate to this video a great deal - well, except for the 3rd concert being an intimate setting (I'm super happy you got to experience that!). Amazingly, the 3rd Gracie concert with 8,500 was my favorite of the 3. And that was my #2 favorite show by any of the 148 artists I've seen in the last several years. This is super surprising to me because I generally enjoy intimate settings more (I went to a concert last month with fewer than 10 people in the audience). I'm so happy Gracie is a recognized star. This is what I want for all the artists I support, as long as they're happy.
Im going to see my favorite artist, AURORA, in december. I am so pumped. I love seeing her change and grow and I finally get to experience it in person.
Ended up getting TSOU tickets for NYC N1. It was fun, a great experience! So proud of her she’s well on her way to filling arenas, but I think I’m gonna miss the tiny shows :(. It’s weird going from a small couple hundred people to a jam packed 7000+ show.
I cry a lot at the thought thst I'll never get to see Sabrina live. She came to Australia in 2016, a couple years after i became a fan of her.... I didnt get to go. It was a free walk in performance 10 minutes from my house, but it was raining. I missed out on watching the most important person in my life perform because of rain, and now shes so famous ill never get ro see her.... 😢
Gracie came with Aaron to Barcelona to play, and here this artists are a lot smaller than in other places in the world, so she played at this kind of small venue BUT I SAW IT TO LATE AND THE TICKETS WERE GONE AND ITS SO SAD cause probably next time she comes will be a bigger place and without Aaron :(
This is how I feel with Sabrina Carpenter, I’ve listened to her since Eyes Wide Open and always thought she was soooo underrated, now she’s about to release her 6th album and has songs thats are #1 on the charts😭 i got to see her when she started the eics tour and I’m so happy I did because no way I’m affording tickets now lmao
I've been listening to Adrianne Lenker since 2021 and it's been magical to watch her blow up so much in the last year especially her album songs and instrumentals because the album captures the world in a way no other music can and I'm glad so many people get to experience the album.
😭😭😭i totally feel this i literally discovered her after she realesed mean it, before she released minor, she asked her fan on who can design an EP cover and i tried lol. it feels so intimate back then she was my little secret
i got tickets today to see gracie in madrid and im so excited cause ive been a fan for a long time but ive never seen her live, as soon as a i got the tickets i came back to this video, hopefully you got tickets too!!!
I'm sobbing. As someone who also went to her show in 2022 and payed little to nothing for the tickets. I was 10 meters from her and there weren't all that many people at the venue (around 200). Seeing her grow so much as an artist is so special but so so heartbreaking at the same time, no matter how selfish it might be ahaha
I saw Gracie open for Taylor in Tampa and to see her growth from then until now is absolutely insane! Her stage presence and everything is just amazing!
Oh Alex, so sweet video! That's how you and Erin met? Lovely ❤ I totally relate. It happened to me with Adele.... Felt like my little secret and boom. Imagine😂😅
i feel this for gracie too! i went to her first uk show in 2021, and was such a special experience, I met her after and everyone attending was so sweet, not as screamy or crazy with 'fans' i've been to 2 other of her shows since and while i'm so happy for her recognition and growth, i miss that first show with less people and less screaming:')
I saw Madilyn Mei live recently, she’s a smaller creator and the concert was a small venue with probably around 40-50 people at the stage. She came out and signed things and I hardly had to wait and got to speak with her (which larger audiences cannot have) she was so sweet and didn’t have to handle crazy fans.
The problem is that I live in Louisiana, so no one ever comes here unless they started their career here or they’re already big. So many of my favorite small artists are on tour right now, but they’re only going across the east or west coast.
I saw her at Ameoba Records in Los Angeles by waiting in line for a couple of hours the week before to see her for 30 minutes the following week and it was worth it :D.
i went to gracie’s first tour and it was so good! there were maybe 300 people there max and we were so close to the stage. her concerts are still amazing but they just don’t hit the same as the smaller venues.
this is EXACTLY how I feel about Sabrina Carpenter. I've loved that girl since 2014 and on top of the whole world hating her over a stupid love triangle her now being one of the biggest pop artists today and those same people loving her now is both beautiful but also heartbreaking
And then, you finally managed to score an intimate concert of one of your favorite artists, only to experience most of it through the screen of your phone.
Me with Laufey I love her music and actually got to the bewitched concert right before she blew up so they were cheap and also had vip (idk how much my mom paid for it) but now that she is popular I can’t imagine how much money it is to go to one of them now
I started listening to Gracie Abrams in 2020, and I was so happy to see her grow. I could finally see her in concert in Barcelona in 2023, and god, it was very amazing.. Everyone was dressed up as her, it kinda had a performative aura about it. She had just been in the Eras Tour so maybe that's why it felt like all of the girls wanted to be dressed as her? Or a "fan" joke that I didn't understand, since I'm not in the fan world for Gracie (I still buy her cds and support her music when it's out! I really look forward to it, but in a chiller way).
I put 100% blame on TicketMaster and LiveNation and their friends. I saw Ed Sheeran in his 2014 Las Vegas concert at The Chelsea, bought it on TicketMaster for $100 plus but when I got the ticket itself it showed that the actual value was $30 ticket. I think the crowd was just about 1,000 people. Internet says there were 6,000. I don’t think there were that many. Anyway, now he does stadium shows etc and the price has gone up drastically 😢😢😢
I’ve been a fan since 2020, when her song I miss you, I’m sorry and her EP minor came out, I am so happy to watch her grow up and see her relationships with other big artists but I’ll still miss when she was my little secret.
im gonna see rina sawayama in her next concert and shes not mega famous yet but her musics so good and one day she will be so im excited to notice the difference in venue sizes once she gets bigger !!!!!! :D
I really love this video, I’m a newer fan of Madison beer. I listen to her album silence between songs in February and just like you I immediately bought tickets to her tour. I know that she is going to get so big soon, especially with her next album, it’s so bittersweet. I’m so happy for her. 😭💕
seeing your favourite artist grow is both heart warming and weirdly heart breaking

One of the most magical experiences, watching this insanely talented person I had just met with only me and the studio owner in the room. I saw her show the next year and MAYBE 200 people were there. Crazy how times change!
I’m so confused. Who invites strangers from in the otherside of the world to a concert? Who has ‘friends’ at a major label company?
Awesome storytelling work here! This made me emotional 🥲 I can’t wait for Gracie’s new album and your part 2!
11:10 the dog knows something that we dont
Good Riddance is a masterpiece
I've been a fan of hers since 2018 when she was just posting songs she wrote on insta and covers on SoundCloud and this is so relatable I'll always miss her being my little secret but I'm so happy for her
That must be a great feeling.🧡 Like you're the OG fan from the very beginning. Wish I was too. I've known her since she put out TIWIFL. But I love her more than anything in this world, I know it sounds crazy but it's true. 😣💔❤
why did this make me so sad even though i only started listening to gracie last year
Because she is just so good
Saw Gracie in clicked. Also seeing this right after she announced her new tour😢😢
i’ve never seen gracie live before so i am SO excited!! Hope i win the ticket war when she comes to aus🙏🙏
I've never seen your channel before, I don't know who Gracie Abrams is but the topic seemed so interesting that I had to click. And this idea of documenting and reflecting how an artist has changed as a live performer is very fascinating and I think this video was entertaining and interesting!
i saw gracie perform her second show ever in 2021 in san francisco. people were talking with her, interacting, giving her gifts and she would wear/use them on stage. i think with the intimate nature of her songwriting it was so beautiful to experience.
Really so sweet of you to make this video
So....Im not sure if you've ever heard of my idea for cousin camp, but man do I hope someone fills ya in quick. Lol. Anyway...good morning....went by Chippewa and the hamster wheel was spinning. You ever see a hamster run and fling itself off the wheel? ADHD at its finest. Jk
these type of vids make me so emotional especially because i'll probably never go to a concert in my entire life. i live in the middle of nowhere in brazil, a country where IF an artist comes to, they only perform in são paulo, which is very far from where i live... still, i'm really happy for you 🥹
Ikr. I live in south asia, so none of the artists ever come here. One day, I am hoping to go to all my favourite concerts.
I’ve been following her on instagram since 2016 and was so happy for her when she started releasing music. I wanna see her live so bad 😭😭
concerts r so special, got chills at ur concert vids
This is exactly how the parents feel when their kids growing up , but is something good that the do that . I’m happy for Gracie , she deserves all the best .
got chills watching this. this is so real, it's not as intimate anymore but im so proud of her.
This video actually made me emotional! Your storrytelling is so passionate and compelling, thank you for putting into words our shared thoughts. Much love from Brazil. ♥
10:45 has me in tears!! Live music is such an emotional experience, so glad you got to see each of these shows.
Hozier did a pop up show at First Ave in MSP and it literally is one of my best concert memories of all time. I’ve seen him 3 times and that was the best because of how intimate it was ❤
I've been following Stefani Germanotta since she played small bars in NYC. I found her creative and thought she had a great voice. I lost track of her for about a year and when I finally found her again, she was Lady Gaga. And I've been a little monster ever since. 🐾🆙️💓
You are a living legend! 👑
the transition between 2024 gracie and 2022 gracie singing imyis brought tears into my eyes i can't lie
ugh this really hits close to home however i have had to see my fav small artists just through my screen as literally not a single small artist comes to australia :')
I cannot explain how excited I was that Gracie was the opener for my Eras tour concert. I was already in love with her music and it was great watching as the people around me fell in love with her too.
i feel you 🥺 seeing gracie grow so much has been both filling me with pride for her and breaking my heart... knowing she's never gonna be our little secret anymore lowkey hurts so baddd
(Not on the topic of the video) but I noticed you have a Daisy Jones and the Six vinyl in the background and I thought that was so cool! I really like Daisy Jones and the Six too!
oh my god I'm sobbing. I was front row at the Glasgow show and it changed my life and from there watching her grow has been equal parts beautiful and heartbreaking. she is so special.
yesss talking about discovering an artist before they blow up, i saw billie eilish in 2018 and it was one of the best concerts ever and now im finally gonna see her oct this year and im so excited!!!!
i have never heard of this artist but i got weirdly emotionally invested
“Small artist”
4.5 million monthly listeners
Yeah okay
Well, relatively speaking. Though that might not be a very small number, but it kind of is for the pop genre, that is. And he's only comparing her present success to when she started doing her first ever concerts.
i remember seeing her at a venue of 350 people last year it was so special
the jump from going from a 4k arena to a 30k arena really broke me when i went to my 2nd melanie martinez concert
Love this💜💜I’ve been a fan since Sam mentioned her and have listened to her music constantly since then. I’m so excited for the albummm
I think the main issue with new pop artists coming from tiktok is the girls in the crowd scream everything at the top of their lungs so you can’t hear the artist at all. And then they video literally everything so all you see are phones and all you hear are people screaming terribly. I wish that concert etiquette for Gen Z was significantly better.
i found a rly small austrailian band that had 10k monthly listeners when i found them over a year ago and now they have 30 or 40k after opening for the jonas brothers and im so sad but their tickets are still only $15 which is a slay
that ur fav singers are no longer your little secret is actually so accurate
what a video. Captured the emotion so well man. I'm a new Gracie fan and oof is her music good (as if that's surprising ). will wait for the part 2 xd
Never heard of Gracie. Just now listened to her most listened to song on RUclips Music, "I miss you, I'm sorry", and didn't recognize it.
This is not a brag. I'm incredibly ignorant of today's popular music. Will I become a Gracie fan? Probably not, but I'm glad to have broadened my horizons by hearing unfamiliar music. Thanks for adding another wrinkle to my brain!
I hope you have fun at the next concert!
I've heard of Gracie Adams here and there from my recommendations (I'm also a fellow RUclips Music user). I'm into broadening my horizons too. If all goes according to plan, I'm going to a concert within a few months!
getting to see sabrina carpenter in a venue of 2,000 people knowing that the next time i see her it will be with 20,000 is a very strange thought
i have seen gracie 5 times. one of them was at an invite only secret event with less than 100 people. gracie is my favourite artist to see live but i gotta say seeing her in 2022 was the best experience i have had. 800 people fit in the venue and it was the perfect amount of intimacy. even tho i loved her last tour i got to say that the shows were better the closer i was to her just because you need that feeling of intimacy with her music. i was so lucky to have the vip soundcheck at some of my shows at tiwifl and at the good riddance tour and the less people she is singing for the more the songs hit. i will miss these little shows so much. ESPECIALLY, because there wont be soundcheck for the new tour
Same goes for me with Olivia Rodrigo!! From Bizaardvark to Guts world tour!!!! Although i hv never seen Olivia live it feels that we had been together all this time!!!
This is actually so cool
PROUD GRACIE STAN SINCE MESS IT UP. (2021) seeing her in february for the first timeee😭😭
omggg how can i get to meet people that who also likes gracie. ANYWAYS GRACIE IS THAT ARTIST♡ love from Uruguay lol♡♡
As someone who saw Gracie on her first tour ever. I wholeheartedly appreciate this video and your thoughts!!!!
I started listening to Gracie Abrams in 2021 and she was my favorite artist that year. I listen to a lot of emerging artists, and I want to support them and help their careers to take off, but I do miss the intimate concerts.
I have also seen Gracie perform 3 times, during the same 3 years you did: 2022, 2023, and 2024. The venues' capacities went from 951 to 1,400 to 8,500, respectively. The tickets went from not being sold out to selling out within seconds on Ticketmaster.
In 2023, I went to 27 music shows. In 2024, I went to 30. Listening to music and going to concerts is my #1 hobby, by far.
I relate to this video a great deal - well, except for the 3rd concert being an intimate setting (I'm super happy you got to experience that!).
Amazingly, the 3rd Gracie concert with 8,500 was my favorite of the 3. And that was my #2 favorite show by any of the 148 artists I've seen in the last several years. This is super surprising to me because I generally enjoy intimate settings more (I went to a concert last month with fewer than 10 people in the audience).
I'm so happy Gracie is a recognized star. This is what I want for all the artists I support, as long as they're happy.
Im going to see my favorite artist, AURORA, in december. I am so pumped. I love seeing her change and grow and I finally get to experience it in person.
Ended up getting TSOU tickets for NYC N1. It was fun, a great experience! So proud of her she’s well on her way to filling arenas, but I think I’m gonna miss the tiny shows :(. It’s weird going from a small couple hundred people to a jam packed 7000+ show.
I cry a lot at the thought thst I'll never get to see Sabrina live. She came to Australia in 2016, a couple years after i became a fan of her.... I didnt get to go. It was a free walk in performance 10 minutes from my house, but it was raining. I missed out on watching the most important person in my life perform because of rain, and now shes so famous ill never get ro see her.... 😢
Gracie came with Aaron to Barcelona to play, and here this artists are a lot smaller than in other places in the world, so she played at this kind of small venue BUT I SAW IT TO LATE AND THE TICKETS WERE GONE AND ITS SO SAD cause probably next time she comes will be a bigger place and without Aaron :(
This is how I feel with Sabrina Carpenter, I’ve listened to her since Eyes Wide Open and always thought she was soooo underrated, now she’s about to release her 6th album and has songs thats are #1 on the charts😭 i got to see her when she started the eics tour and I’m so happy I did because no way I’m affording tickets now lmao
thanks it was amazing, i´m a fan of gracie and her music for almost 2 years
Riveting- thanks for your work. Editing choices are amazing ❤
THE AURORA ALBUM IN THE BACK 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've been listening to Adrianne Lenker since 2021 and it's been magical to watch her blow up so much in the last year especially her album songs and instrumentals because the album captures the world in a way no other music can and I'm glad so many people get to experience the album.
😭😭😭i totally feel this i literally discovered her after she realesed mean it, before she released minor, she asked her fan on who can design an EP cover and i tried lol. it feels so intimate back then she was my little secret
i started listening to gracie in 2021 and watching her grow has been so bittersweet 😭❤️❤️ i love her so much
Oh what a long time coming!! This is such a fun video
wait why are you so underrated you re so funny and entertaining!!!
i went to a gracie abrams concert and it changed my life.
i got tickets today to see gracie in madrid and im so excited cause ive been a fan for a long time but ive never seen her live, as soon as a i got the tickets i came back to this video, hopefully you got tickets too!!!
clicked because of gracie. nice thumbnail choice
That’s such a cool idea
I'm sobbing. As someone who also went to her show in 2022 and payed little to nothing for the tickets. I was 10 meters from her and there weren't all that many people at the venue (around 200). Seeing her grow so much as an artist is so special but so so heartbreaking at the same time, no matter how selfish it might be ahaha
I started being a fan in 2022 but I was never able to get tickets until this year and I’m so so excited
I saw Gracie open for Taylor in Tampa and to see her growth from then until now is absolutely insane! Her stage presence and everything is just amazing!
This was so beautiful almost cried😢
Oh Alex, so sweet video! That's how you and Erin met? Lovely ❤
I totally relate. It happened to me with Adele.... Felt like my little secret and boom. Imagine😂😅
she just announced her tour for the secret of us, and shes not coming to europe 😭😭
maybe she will announce new dates tho
she only released the north american dates the rest is still coming
@@sophia-wp1kb i hope so
she is now
i feel this for gracie too! i went to her first uk show in 2021, and was such a special experience, I met her after and everyone attending was so sweet, not as screamy or crazy with 'fans'
i've been to 2 other of her shows since and while i'm so happy for her recognition and growth, i miss that first show with less people and less screaming:')
I saw Madilyn Mei live recently, she’s a smaller creator and the concert was a small venue with probably around 40-50 people at the stage. She came out and signed things and I hardly had to wait and got to speak with her (which larger audiences cannot have) she was so sweet and didn’t have to handle crazy fans.
The problem is that I live in Louisiana, so no one ever comes here unless they started their career here or they’re already big. So many of my favorite small artists are on tour right now, but they’re only going across the east or west coast.
I saw her at Ameoba Records in Los Angeles by waiting in line for a couple of hours the week before to see her for 30 minutes the following week and it was worth it :D.
i went to gracie’s first tour and it was so good! there were maybe 300 people there max and we were so close to the stage. her concerts are still amazing but they just don’t hit the same as the smaller venues.
this is EXACTLY how I feel about Sabrina Carpenter. I've loved that girl since 2014 and on top of the whole world hating her over a stupid love triangle her now being one of the biggest pop artists today and those same people loving her now is both beautiful but also heartbreaking
And then, you finally managed to score an intimate concert of one of your favorite artists, only to experience most of it through the screen of your phone.
Me with Laufey I love her music and actually got to the bewitched concert right before she blew up so they were cheap and also had vip (idk how much my mom paid for it) but now that she is popular I can’t imagine how much money it is to go to one of them now
I started listening to Gracie Abrams in 2020, and I was so happy to see her grow. I could finally see her in concert in Barcelona in 2023, and god, it was very amazing.. Everyone was dressed up as her, it kinda had a performative aura about it. She had just been in the Eras Tour so maybe that's why it felt like all of the girls wanted to be dressed as her? Or a "fan" joke that I didn't understand, since I'm not in the fan world for Gracie (I still buy her cds and support her music when it's out! I really look forward to it, but in a chiller way).
I put 100% blame on TicketMaster and LiveNation and their friends.
I saw Ed Sheeran in his 2014 Las Vegas concert at The Chelsea, bought it on TicketMaster for $100 plus but when I got the ticket itself it showed that the actual value was $30 ticket. I think the crowd was just about 1,000 people. Internet says there were 6,000. I don’t think there were that many.
Anyway, now he does stadium shows etc and the price has gone up drastically 😢😢😢
I’ve been a fan since 2020, when her song I miss you, I’m sorry and her EP minor came out, I am so happy to watch her grow up and see her relationships with other big artists but I’ll still miss when she was my little secret.
im gonna see rina sawayama in her next concert and shes not mega famous yet but her musics so good and one day she will be so im excited to notice the difference in venue sizes once she gets bigger !!!!!! :D
i’m proud to have been a fan of sabrina, gracie and olivia before they all blew up
I really love this video, I’m a newer fan of Madison beer. I listen to her album silence between songs in February and just like you I immediately bought tickets to her tour. I know that she is going to get so big soon, especially with her next album, it’s so bittersweet. I’m so happy for her. 😭💕
