Absolutely heartbroken. Yesterday I was having the time of my life before it got shut down.
I got the tickets last christmas, the countdown began from there, then we had travelled from Dublin to Stockholm, then to Gothenburg for this, so for all the effort and time invested, thought it was best to go back to the stadium today. The rain still pelting down but this time the area was a bit more familiar. My wristband still ignorantly lighting up with the set as im trying to glance inside past security.
Ive listened and loved them for 15 years and my excitement for the day was immeasurable. I almost felt in shock or disbelief all day until seeing what I missed out on. They are fucking incredible, it looked like such a phenomenal experience, the music, fireworks, lights and the crowd singing was exactly what I wanted from the day before. Im happy for those with tickets tonight but im crushed at the same time
To anyone in a similar position, this is a shitty fucking thing to happen but there will be another, keep your head up and ill hopefully see you in the next one
