JXDN LIVE IN LONDON
Update from Elizabeth
Venue: O2 Shepherds Bush Empire, London, UK
Hey everyone! Elizabeth here with the 411 update on catching JXDN live in London! It was absolutely incredible. The lights dimmed and Jaden walked out just a silhouette smoking a cig. He was clearly pretty excited to be there with us! "Shows in London are the best and it only took 5 years to get here..." Referring to the cancelations of the past. Finally, he made it to London! Check out the setlist:
1. STRAY
2. CANDLES
3. Friends with Benefits
4. IT MUST SUCK TO KNOW YOU
5. DEAD OR ALIVE
6. SO WHAT!
7. WANNA BE
8. BETTER OFF DEAD
9. LIPS (with a wild drum solo)
10. Pray (Acoustic amazingness)
11. WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS (Also acoustic amazingness)
12. HOW FAR
13. WET DREAM (IT'S YOU)
14. Miss You (Cover of the Rolling Stones)
15. SAD OCTOBER
16. JUST LET GO
17. WHAT THE HELL
18. TELL ME ABOUT TOMORROW
19. Lifeline (Cover of ILLENIUM)
20. ANGELS & DEMONS
There were a couple of special standout moments through out this set. First being during WANNA BE, Jaden brought up a fan to spit MGK's verse and they killed it! That was so fun to see the entire crowd and Jaden cheering them on. Pray was a emotional performance, even Jaden shed a couple of tears :( WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS started and Jaden said with conviction "When the music stops, the world keeps f***ing singing man... this s**t saved my life. The only thing that can bring the world together is music" Those two songs acoustic back to back were incredibly moving to experience live. Fast forward to WET DREAM, Jaden took his shirt off for the crowd and everyone freaked lol. His cover of Miss You was a riot! He even snagged a fans Union Jack Flag to wear on his shoulders for the song.
Overall guys, this show was spectacular. Can't wait for you guys to see these photos and the full piece in print! It's going to be awesome.
