Because I didn't know she 63 00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: was coming to Australia. And I saw you like the 64 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: day before, a couple of days before, and you're like, 65 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm going Kesha this Friday or whatever it was. And 66 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: then I was like, I didn't know she was coming here. 67 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: And then I saw all the tiktoks popping up, like 68 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: of everyone posting Kesha and all the comments were. 69 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: I didn't know she was playing here, Like how did 70 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 3: you hear about it? 71 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: So there was like no promo whatsoever from I think. 72 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 3: It was any marketing and was like every ticket sold out, No. 73 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: Not for a while. So I accidentally stumbled across the 74 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: concert trying to find I think Katy Perry tickets or something. 75 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: So when Katy Perry tickets went on sale, okay, I 76 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 2: think I accidentally saw Kesha, Like what the bloody hell 77 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: is this? Then I was like and More theater, which 78 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: you know, I want to say ten years ago when 79 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: I went to Kesha for the first time, she was 80 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: at the Howden Pavilion. 81 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: What's in more theaters? 82 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: Like it's in Newtown. It's usually where like you'd go 83 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 2: and see like a Joel Creasy, Like it's it's about 84 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: two thousand seats, okay, and most of it's that there's 85 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: a lot of like live music, but like I don't 86 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: know to me, and More theater just gives like comedy 87 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: show vibes because I've seen so many comedians there and 88 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: I haven't been too many like artists there. And then 89 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 2: the second so she was at hart And Pavilion that 90 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 2: was five thousand capacity, and that was when she first 91 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: was a thing. Then she came back for the Rainbow 92 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: Tour or whatever that was called, and that was at 93 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: the ICC, which I think is like eight and a 94 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 2: half capacity. Yeah, and now she did the end More, 95 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: which was two thousand capacity, and. 96 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: She could do a way bigger like not arena, but 97 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: I feel like she could do a way bigger venue 98 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: if her team did the marketing. 99 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I didn't hear about it. She was here 100 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 3: for the Australian Open. Oh, she was here for the 101 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 3: Australian Open, was she? 102 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: Because I feel like if she went to like a 103 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: way bigger thing and did some good marketing and advertising, 104 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: she could sell out a fucking small stadium. Yeah, easily, 105 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: because I would have loved to have gone. 106 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: But I had no idea. 107 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the tickets sold so slow for and More. 108 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: I was Kesha and More, there's gonna be no tickets left. 109 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: And then I was like, when did these tickets go 110 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: on sale? I couldn't figure that out, but they must 111 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: have been on sale for a while. And then it 112 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 2: was like six weeks later and my friend was like, 113 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: I said, I'm going to Kesha and he was like, oh, yeah, 114 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 2: I want to come, and I was like, buy a ticket, 115 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: and so he was able to buy a ticket, they 116 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 2: still weren't sold out, Like no one was talking about it. 117 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: She posted one photo to her Instagram about it, but 118 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: to be fair, it was like, if you look at 119 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: the photo, you've got no idea it's a concert, let 120 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 2: alone in Australia. Like it's just the marketing for it 121 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: was so strange. I saw no sponsored ads. I didn't 122 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 2: hear about it anywhere. It was like it was just 123 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: a really strange thing. And also for her song like 124 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 2: joy Ride to be so popular at the time that 125 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 2: tickets were on sale, yeah, it was baffling to me. 126 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: But anyway, I had the best night ever. But I 127 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: just wanted to say to all the Scrollers that I met. 128 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: Oh, yes, so true. 129 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 2: I don't know. 130 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: This is the picture. 131 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: That's you don't know that that's a concert, right, No? 132 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: And the text is so small at the bottom. Yeah, 133 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: she'd be like Sydney in massive writing. 134 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 2: Also, she when we bought because I just bought the 135 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: ticket straight away because I was like, well, who kesha? 136 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: Love her like and let me tell you like up 137 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: there with one of my top concerts ever. But probably 138 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 2: because I was so drunk and just dance mytitself all 139 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 2: night but still like up there with one of the 140 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 2: best nights ever. It cured me. Honestly, I was not 141 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 2: having a good week last week, like if I'm honest, 142 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 2: like I was not. I was not coping with life, 143 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: and I don't know what was going on, but I 144 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 2: was just like depress on Martini and Kesha just she 145 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: just brought me back to life, like she breathed new 146 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 2: life into me, and I feel great again. Anyway, So 147 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 2: when I bought the tickets, it said on it, like 148 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,119 Speaker 2: it was real weird. It said something like Kesha will 149 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: be performing a DJ set and singing a handful of 150 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: her most popular songs. So we'd already bought the tickets 151 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 2: and then saw that little piece of information and me 152 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 2: and my friends are like, oh, like she doing this. 153 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 2: She's doing a DJ set and a couple of hits. 154 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: She's probably gonna sing like three songs, Like this is 155 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 2: so disappointing. So we really went into it with no 156 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 2: idea what to expect. Then the day before they like 157 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: texted us and they were like doors open at six, 158 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: I think, And then it was like one DJ at seven, 159 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: one DJ at eight, one DJ at nine and then 160 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: ten pm kesher and I was like, ten pm. I'm like, 161 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: she's coming on stage at ten pm. And then I 162 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 2: thought to myself, you know, surely the end more probably 163 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 2: has like an eleven pm curfew, or even maybe eleven thirty. 164 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: I was like, she's really not going to sing that 165 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: many songs, and I will admit she didn't. She was 166 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: on stage for barely forty five minutes. She sung all 167 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: her big hits. You know, there were a few she missed, 168 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: like yeah, blah blah blahs and stuff.
