Showday: Red Hill Auditorium Perth

Today started a bit rough—I woke up with another intense migraine. After a good amount of painkillers, it finally started to ease up. Chloe and I headed out early to grab a quick bite and some much-needed coffee before our shuttle.

The venue was about a 40-minute drive out of the city, set in a beautiful nature area (and yes, we’d been warned about the poisonous spiders and snakes, we had to relocate one particularly bold spider from the backstage area!) The outdoor stage was amazing, surrounded by greenery, with a cozy backstage area and plenty of space to relax. We took a quick walk around the trails to spot any wildlife.

Later, Chloe, Bella, and I had a mini hair-styling session backstage, which was such a highlight. I feel so lucky to be surrounded by these two; we had a blast helping each other get ready, and Nadia even joined for some fun hairstyles.

Before our set, I caught part of Eivør’s show. We were also honored to have a traditional Aboriginal opening before our performance (with a bit of an unexpected twist when he nearly set the stage on fire by accident or at least not known to us—but it was incredible to share that moment with him).

The show itself was a blast! You could feel the energy from everyone—even some laughter during the set, which made it unforgettable.

Afterward, I reconnected with my friend Robin, who’s traveling in Australia right now. Chloe and I decided to skip the showers at the venue and head back to the hotel, leading to some funny moments at the hotel reception! 😄Weiterlesen
