My thoughts on the Måneskin LA concert (2021.11.01)

After watching the recording on TikTok live, I just wanted to write down some thoughts I have on Må and their incredible show 😍

Their energy is just CRAZY. You can see it from the pics and the videos taken by the fans, but watching everything from start to end like this you can really feel how strong and explosive their performance is. I mean, I was just watching it on my phone from my couch at home and I just couldn't sit still, I had to move, dance, scream and sing. That proves just how powerful the atmosphere in their concerts is.

One thing that sets them apart from other artists is how authentic their music is. You can usually tell how good a singer/band/etc is by just watching them live. Some sound just the same as in a recording, which I think is amazing and I admire in many cases as well, but people like Måneskin just go beyond that. It's like they remake their music every time they play it. And that's SO GOOD. No matter how many times you've listened to their songs on repeat, it just feels like a new song when you see it in a concert like this, so fresh and genuine.

Damiano has such a great and effortless way of leading the crowd. He is just a natural. I know everybody knows this and he's shown it many times, but for me this was the first time I saw it in action like that. He's just aware of EVERYTHING. He even listens to the fans shouting when he's trying to speak, while others would just focus on what they're saying. He tries to make it a fun experience for everybody and also (something I really, really love about him) for Vic, Thomas and Ethan to shine just as much as he does and not be in the spotlight all the time. As the lead singer (and as charismatic as he is), he can't avoid attracting the attention most of the time, but you can see him making a conscious effort to divide it among his friends as well. And last but not least, his voice, oh my god. So raspy, powerful and raw. I just love it 🖤

Vic, as I usually say in my tags (lol), is just a goddess. I may sound biased (and I might be to some extent, I'm not gonna lie xD), but really, you just need to look at her and the way she moves, she's so divine. Just as Damiano seems to be aware of everything around him, I feel Vic goes into her own world and just plays and dances there, delighted, while we mortals just watch in awe. She's SO MUCH into the music, I love it. And she shares her passion with the boys and shines so brightly while doing so. I'm so in love with her, dammit. Apart form this, I must say that her outfit for this concert is one of my favorites ever, you just need to look at my pfp. Please, Victoria de Angelis, just marry me 🥺

Thomas is the embodiment of wild, pure talent. It simply seeps through his pores, like magic. One of the things I enjoyed a lot from watching this live are the different/extended versions they played of some songs, like IWBYS. Boy, that was amazing. You can really see how great he truly is as a guitarist. I know very little about playing music (I only know how to play the uke, and in a very basic way tbh), but it's obvious how much and how fast he's been improving. I mean, he's always been a genius, but let's not forget he's only 20, fgs. Imagine how far he can go from now on, he's gonna be a LEGEND.

Ethan, you beast of a man in that corset skskdkxfodkeifnkskd is incredibly vibrant as well. You can see he puts his soul into his playing and lets himself go. I'm so, so glad I could finally watch him playing properly, because in the pictures and fan videos he's just there in the back doing his thing and you usually don't get to see much of him, poor baby (same goes for the tv perfs usually). I guess he's more the Vic type and also plays in some sort of trance, but you can feel he's carrying and producing a lot of the energy of the music (idk if it's just because he's playing the drums, but I haven't felt the same watching other bands). What I mean is he's not just playing a base for the rest, he's like holding them up and elevating them. That's what I feel watching and listening to him. He's such a wonderful musician.

This got so much longer and deeper than I intended it to be 😂😂😂 I just want to finish with an opinion I've been holding for some time now and I was afraid of expressing because I know it's probably gonna be unpopular, but I need to say it. It's about the fans who are on their phones ALL THE TIME. Now, as I said, this is an opinion and I'm not trying to tell anybody what to do or how to enjoy themselves. But, you're at a Måneskin concert, first row, Damiano is singing in front of you, Vic is playing in front of you, Thomas is playing in front of you and Ethan too, a bit further away, and you insist on putting a device between them and you and probably end up watching them through a screen? Why? Maybe this is because I'm in the older spectrum of the fandom and phone cameras were really shitty when I started going to concerts, but I just don't get it. I mean, I'm really thankful to everybody who récords and shares their videos so we can see literally everything they do on stage, but tbh I wouldn't do the same. Call me an old lady if you like, but I would even forget I have a phone. I would try to absorb everything and save the moment in my mind and, above all, to interact directly with them. At times I've seen Damiano annoyed with people just pointing their phones at his face, and I would be too. In this concert he even had to ask them twice to put their phones away. Hello? It just baffles me.

Anyway, hope you enjoyed my TED talk xD If you read up to here, I love you 😘 My ask is totally open if you want to talk about anything or just throw a brick at me
