    I just got back from the Bangerz concert of Miley Cyrus (which was epic lol!) but it put me in a Miley mood and i was Youtubing some of her other concerts and found this video:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_w4lVi2wPqE

    If you skip to the 2:30 mark when the intro begins, it's a siren similar to the start of Salute. This made me think of how The Salute Tour concert could potentially begin and it got me SO excited!!

    I can't wait to see what these girls bring to the table for this arena show! <3 I hope it's an AMAZING intro :\:)

    Do people get "opening act fatigue" with that many or do they just get seated later? I would hate to be the first act on.
    Totally depends on the crowd. But yeah, early slots with more than one opener can be pretty rough. Best viewed as time for raw acts to get used to performing in that environment. The Demi concert I caught would have felt pretty excessive if I wasn't mostly there for LM and also interested in comparing 5H.

    3, 4, 5 it's all too many, I guess I'm used to the fact that my first concert was Beyonce who only had a DJ.
    I'm used to jam acts with no openers (two 70-90 minute sets and a 40 min setbreak instead.)

    I'm kind of nervous that we havent heard one peep about a live band. You'd think a drummer or somebody would have tweeted something by now.

    I wonder how much these openers have to pay to be on the bill, hopefully the three of them combined covers a decent amount of LM's tour costs overall :p.

    I love their tour outfits, they're so theatrical and yet so them. They look like intergalactic superhero costumes. I hope we get some good video from the first night and O2 (no pressure British mixers).

    The MixMen are tweeting about the tour production starting today, is it normal for this to be left for like 3/4 days before the first show? anyway, i will be seriously surprised and disappointed if they for some reason aren't doing this tour with a live band.......

    edit: it's actually really cool seeing these massive crowds in south america singing along to the Little Mix songs before the 1d concerts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKTMyrhmPn4 would love for them to get down there for a show or two next year

    Not sure what you're looking at, but if its those gawdawful ones posted on Tumblr those arent the real costumes. They dont even match anything on the real stylist's rails.

    I thought most rehearsed for a week with the set pieces and the band.

    You all don't seriously think there's a possibility of no live band, this is there biggest tour yet it would ludicrous not to have one, besides I'm sure they've mentioned being excited to hear their songs with a band.

    Frankee from M.o. Tweeted a picture from thier rehearsals and there was a drum kit behind her! Surely if they have a band, then LM will :)

    There have been bigger acts that toured without a live band. It would be really odd with LM to be sure. Its just that there was a high level of engagement last year with their 2 guitarists which hasnt been shown this year. Maybe its just today that the band is being brought in which also makes me wonder if they are "just for hire" and a little disengaged.

    I remember the XF Tour musical director tweeting away in 2012. Havent seen the LM one at all unless its Cottone.

    Show us a pic!

    It probably would have been near the top 40 now if it wasn't for the Eurovision songs and new releases pushing it down but glad it's still climbing :)

    ^^Beat me to it. Its #56 now! There's still some Eurovision songs left ahead of it too.

    Its gotten quiet on that promo front after the big buildup to the video. I wonder what else they have planned, as I cant see them just dropping it after the way things have been going. Then again...

    I think with the tour starting on Friday and it being their first headlining arena show, they'll be some buzz at the end of the week :)

    Already up to 701. At least radio has embraced the song.

    I hope those aren't all monochrome or dour colour combinations. I like the designs though.

    If those are really the outfits then Leigh has the best ones. However I think it's fake because the designs that was posted on their twitter earlier looking nothing like the ones in the picture.
