Keane: Hopes And Fears 20

Date: November 14th, 2024

Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina

this was one of my favorite concerts i've ever been to, the music, the sound, the lights, the feeling in general was so beautiful, i felt like i was laying on top of an extremely soft cloud the entire time

i couldn't stop smiling, and to be honest, this concert was probably the one i enjoyed the most in my life

it felt like a warm and soft caress to the soul and i'm not exaggerating, i really needed that space and time to lay down my load and just enjoy of the beauty of the moment, it was a 100% worth it

having Tom Chaplin singing in the same time and space as you the words in every song was one of the best experiences of my life

talking about the performance, they fucking ate the whole night. the energy? don't make me talk about the energy these men have because it's fucking awesome, i was SO wonderstruck by it

Richard killing it constantly on the drums, Jesse's bass playing leaving me amazed the whole time, Tom's performance as gorgeous as the usual, and of course, my love, Tim

i swear there was a moment where i couldn't take my eyes off Tim, he's so incredible

the whole vibe of the concert brought so much joy to my soul, i felt like a kid for a moment, especially when they played "She Has No Time", since it's a song i remember being played frequently at my house (and even more especially during "Somewhere Only We Know")

highlights of the show?

• Hamburg Song, we all sat down on our sits (in Argentina we usually stand as a sign of respect instead of sitting down the whole show), I CRIED, i definitely pulled the triple S (singing, smiling, sobbing)

• Silenced By The Night, on my top three favorite Keane songs, almost cried

• Tom saying Tim is the Messi of Keane

• THEY PLAYED "UNDER PRESSURE"

• Tom telling the crowd to get their inner Freddie Mercury out to sing

• they played "Snowed Under" thanks to a fan who requested it throught a sign

• Perfect Symmetry, the bridge sang by the crowd was MAGICAL

• My Shadow, such a mesmerizing moment

to finish this review / experience sharing, all i can say is that i loved the concert (in case you didn't noticed) and i'm extremely happy that i was able to go and experience such a special night celebrating the 20th anniversary of Hopes And Fears

hope you liked the first concert review of the blog!

🎶Somewhere only we boop 🎶. Happy boop day from Keane. x x x

[nanceoir]

This is one of my favorite live performances of Keane's "Perfect Symmetry," from Summer Sonic '09.

I love seeing the effort and concentration they put into this pitch-perfect performance.

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Hiya! Nice lounge, Italy boi! X3

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲: Oh, you must be one of Maddie‘s friends!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Yep! But, I have one small question..!

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲: Of course! Ask away, Mio amico!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: So, I heard Maddie that your husband was brought back to life, meaning that he was dead, right..?

[While Danny nodded in agreement, he didn’t notice that his lover, Crusher had already been in the room to intentionally ears drop on their conversation with a mug of coffee in his hands.]

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: So, that means you make out with a corpse, right? \:<

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲: Well, ye- EXCUSE ME?!

[Crusher face burned red as he chokes on his drink, Danny just stood there with his eyes wide open, his face steaming red.]

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Am I wrong?

𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐲: W-well… You see… It’s DEFINITELY not like that!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Oh, Really? But, he used to be dead… Why are your faces re-

𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫: WOW, LOOK AT THE TIME!!! WE NEED TO DO IMPORTANT WORK STUFF, RIGHT NOW!!! BYE FOREVER!

[He immediately grabbed his husband and booked it out the room, leaving Riley alone. Riley responded by flopped on to the couch, to search for some crumbs to eat. But before she even got a chance to, Maddie stormed in with a bitten chain leash.]

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: I WAS RUNNING AROUND THIS DAMN SPACE STATION FOR 40 MINUTES!!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: You'll never take me alive, sucker! >:3

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: Oh, really because *Yawns* I got you where I want yo-

[As soon as she opened her eyes, Riley was gone without a trace… Maddie whines as she stares at the empty space, before she starts running away to the moth once again.]

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: How does she keep doing that?!

——————{🪀❤️💙}————————-

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Hi! :3

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: Oh, hi there! How can I help you?

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: I just wanted to say a little cute idea, want to hear about it?

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: Sure! What is your idea?

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: If you lose your arms, then you would a matching couple!

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: Sorry for asking but…HOW is that… cute?

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: So, you can grab some pretty charms and stickers for your new prosthetics! Like one of those peanut butter and jelly stickers! Pretty cute idea, huh? :D

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: That’s sweet of you… but I don’t losing my arms is a good idea…

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Boo. |:<

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: Excuse me?

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Nothing… :|

[Violin raises his eyebrow in confusion, until his husband strolls into the room, grabbing his attention, but before he even had a chance to speak… Riley was already chewing on his prosthetic.]

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: *Mouth-full* Your arm taste like rocks! :3

𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐧: Thank you…? Now, can you… let go of my prosthetic?

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?! WHEN I FIND YOU, I’LL CHAIN YOU TO A TREE AND BEAT YOU LIKE A FUCKING BIRTHDAY PIÑATA!!!

[Riley's atenas shot up in heartbeat as she released her fangs from his mostly metal arm and crawled into the air vents.]

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: What did you even do?!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: I may have drank her milkshake and spat some at her to get away. >:3

𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐧: Why did you-

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Gotta go, bye!

[She crawls away before he could request a answer. Accordion sighs in defeat, but glances at the small but visible bites on his arm.]

𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐧: How do I explain this to the chief?

𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧: You could hide them with cute stickers.

————————{🪀💚🩵}——————

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: *Hanging upside down* Hello, person! :]

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: Gah, who are you?!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: I'm Riley! Green goggles, cool gloves… You must be Polo! :D

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: How do you know my name..?

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Maddie told me about you, saying that you’re a nerdy weirdo like me! :D

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: NERDY?!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Who's the cute boi under your desk? :>

[Benz was napping delightfully under his desk, Polo’s entire face was covered in heavy blush.]

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: W-well, he was tired a-and I wanted to-

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: You didn’t answer my question, you simp! >:[

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: I'M NOT A-

𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐳: Den Mund halten! I'm trying to sleep… Who’s she and how did she get in here?

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: Benz, I am so sorry for waking you up! I didn’t realize that I was-

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Guys, look!

[Polo spins around to his horror as he stares at a violently, bubbling chemical was in her hands.]

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: All I did was pour some pop rocks in it, isn’t that awesome! :D

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐨: Yeah, awesome…! If you could just-

𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐳: Give it to him, he can make it 100 times awesome…!

𝐑𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐲: Wait a minute, what if I add ALL of my pop rocks?! >:D

𝐁𝐎𝐓𝐇: WAIT, NO STOP!!!

—————————————{🩷😈}——-

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: My legs hurt… Mom, can I get a milkshake?

[Calypso ignore the question and continue to clean her bar, Maddie responds by softly growls at her.]

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: Mom, may I PLEASE have a milkshake…?

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐩𝐬𝐨: There it is, now was that so hard?

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: No…

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐩𝐬𝐨: Now, what do you say?

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: Thank you…

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐩𝐬𝐨: What was that, sugar?

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: Thank you… Mom.

[Calypso rewarded Maddie with a milkshake and a grin. As she was about to take a sip, a thundering bang came from just below the floor they were on. The two stared at each other until Calypso was the first to say something.]

𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐩𝐬𝐨: Should we check on them…?

𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐞: Nope, if it has nothing to do with us, then walk away… And, it’s probably safer if we stay up here… Trust me.

[Maddie exhaustingly drinks her milkshake as Calypso just stares in confusion and worry, but she chose not to ask for her own sanity…]

I hope you liked it! A little fun fact, Maddie is now adopted by Calypso! :D

i can already feel the post-concert depression

[febrvarymoon]

All in all, the Keane concert in Berlin was absolutely amazing. Tom was beauty and charisma personified, his voice sounded unreal (also impressing friends who came with us but weren't really fans), his energy was startling. I didn't see that much of Tim, as I wasn't on his side, but the chemistry, unity, and overall magical vibes amongst the 4 of them were very palpable. What I did see more of, was Jesse, smiling so sweetly at his side of the crowd. (I'm not even a Jesse fan, but I melted.)

It was called 'A Comedy of Danger' and a version of it was broadcast in January 1973, fifty years after the original broadcast. Listen to the 1973 broadcast here.
