I already have chronic and pretty strong anhedonia.

I was at a concert a few days ago, it was so amazing, passed too quickly. Both Seb Lowe and Sofia Isella...

I had multiple interactions with Seb Lowe which was great, I was also picked up on the stage for evergreen solider. I also gave her a gift and saw her on meet and greet.

I just can't help but what's adding onto my upsetness is the fact that we were told no hugs and no autographs on the meet and greet but she hugged people.

I'm like- if I had a stronger personality I guess I could've more confidently say something to her or ask for a hug. Instead, I panicked and ended up looking extremely awkward on the picture.

I feel so regretful, because I met my biggest idol for the first time ever and I feel like I messed up and now she's gone and all I have are tens of videos popping up on my fyp of me, kneeling in front of her and staring up at her like she's some sort of ethereal entity (I'm a good waz ofc).

I feel kind of jealous of other venues that they got to interact more with her but also I know that's just coming from the fact that I genuinely have no idea how to cope with this.

Like I know it shouldn't be such a big deal, it's just a concert but also her art and she as a person mean so much to me I wish I was normal so that I could've made more memorable and less embarrassing memories.

Any tips? How to somehow calm down?

Alright, forgive me for my ignorance, I just recently found this artist. Cool music, very unique. That being said…why the hell are people shaking and crying to the point it looks like they’re in severe anguish and pain at literally all her shows? And why does she often post clips where this very strange behavior is occurring? Seriously, I get it, people get excited for their favorite artists, people used to faint for Michael Jackson, but this just has such a different and disturbing energy to it, especially given how quiet it usually is given the nature of her music, putting these concerning displays of emotion on full display, it’s very intimate and uncomfortable to me. Furthermore I don’t think I’m alone in this opinion, you can see others in the crowd look at these outbursts i’m referring to in alarm and concern. It’s definitely like not a healthy display of emotion or more importantly social etiquette imho, and I’m just wondering how this phenomenon could’ve possibly started. Is this a weird part of the fandom the community just ignores? Is this somehow considered normal in the community despite being obviously extremely out of the ordinary? Again, not asking from the place of a hater, just genuinely curious, as I’ve never seen anything like this before. Thanks!

Dealing with a chronic illness flare up that I probably won’t recover from until the 27th, so I'm trying to sell my two tickets for the show :c I'm selling them for the price I bought them which is 75€!

Does anyone think she's gonna perform the concert in Munich as planned?

I am a little worried it might get canceled which is understandable ofcourse if she's sick, but I really hope it doesn't 🙏

I haven't received any info from the venue just the one that said it got cancelled and that they will contact us soon. At the door they said she might postpone or cancel. What do you guys think?

i’m looking for a ticket for tonight if somebody can’t make it

Hi guys!! I am thinking about selling my “im camera” signed warts vinyl. I was wondering how i should price it and if anyone is interested?:)

hey there!

i just wanted to pour my thoughts about my experience being a transgender boy AND sofia isella fan 🏳️‍⚧️🐇

i came out as genderqueer more than 5 years ago now which has been a significant part of my life

i always had to struggle with the pressure of one of the two:

1.being a womanly woman before i came out

OR

2.being a manly man with testosterone pumping through my veins after i came out

this is where sofia isella comes in

listening to sof has honestly unlocked a new side of me. i've always been concious on how screwed the situation around gender equality, s3xualization and misogyny has been, but listening to her songs has made me research and think about it way more.

till this day i keep having this ugly voice in the back of my head saying "eugh, you are transitioning to a man yet you are listening to songs about feminism? you're not a MAN"

but being more and more in this community has made me realize that "you know what? screw gender norms, these are not healthy" and i've been finally looking for more peace inside of me with my gender identity.

i also want to add that one of my favorite songs is Man Made, and the song on its own already speaks about toxic masculinity, conditioning to certain beliefs and pressure on men to be tough to be considered "real men".

that song hits me ON A PERSONAL LEVELLLLLLLL ‼️

obviously i am not amab (assigned male at birth) so it is not the same but just for my own comfort i like to interpret some parts of that song as what i feel like is going on around me as a transmasculine individual. it's damn beautiful. EDIT: i also want to add that ANOTHER ONE OF MY FAVORITES is out in the garden... since it's about being perceived as demonic while you're just another human, it makes me think about people genuinely think theres something wrong with me for...*checks notes*...wanting to be comfortable in my own body?

overall i'd also love to mention that the world we live in made "feminism" sound like something inherently feminine, radical and negative

thanks to sofia's music i've been realizing what I actually believe in and what i stand for <3

yes, i'm a transgender boy. yes, i'm a "softboy". yes, screw pressuring to align with what people believe is femininity or masculinity. yes, I want to be a boy but i want to be the opposite of the men that Sofia speaks of in her songs. and yes, i'm a feminist.

YES, I LOVE BEING ALL THAT!!!

i would love to hear what you guys think about my tiny journey i went through with Sof's songs! everyone is welcome to answer, no matter your gender <3

if theres anyone here who's also genderqueer and MAYBE felt similar PLEASE let me know, just knowing that theres other people that felt in a similar way would immediately make my day x100 times better

so, what do you guys think?

thank you!

just wondering if anyone in stockholm could give updates on the queue?

I came onto here to ask, cuz I'm about to see her in three days, because I'm wondering- where is the best place to stand on her concert?

Because from what I see she roams the crowd, so I assume baricade doesn't guarantee you the best opportunity to interact with her or even the best view?

I'm a baricade girly and I'm willing to wait hours to get it, but I mostly care about the view I get, since I'm short being further back in the crowd makes it almost guaranteed that I won't see anything.

Tbh I don't even care if she will interact with me or not, as long as I get a good look at her singing...anyone with an experience? Where was the best spot?

I'm so excited to see her and I hope I get the best possible spot

(besides the obvious , I hope shes gonna be okay because her past few stories suggest she's not doing great)

I've been listening to her ever since I can be your mother, had my ticket for almost a year, any advice or suggestion is welcome 🙏🙏

also if you actually get to read this far- what experience with giving her gifts and meet and greets?

I'm autistic and have very strong social anxiety, I have gifts for her but I'm scared I'll pass on a once in a lifetime opportunity to give it-

Again, anything you have to share about your experience is welcomed

Hi! I’m hopefully seeing Sofia at Manchester (only if she starts feeling better of course) and was wondering what surprise songs she’s done. From what I can find she does one surprise song every night. So far I think she’s done Us and Pigs, Crowd Caffeine, Rainbow Rocket Ride and Pet Kind. Have there been any others?

Also does anyone have the opener, Seb Lowe’s, setlist and know if he meets fans after the show? I know some openers will go to the merch stand after a show.

Thanks for any info! :)

anyone going in stockholm tomorrow? and when are you guys gonna start queing

Hi guys! Im going to the Vienna Concert (considering Sofia will get better until then) and I wanted to ask if anyone on this sub is going aswell! Im going with a friend I showed the music too and I wanted to see if anyone would want to connect at the concert? I don't know that many like minded people in vienna so it would be nice to get to know some people, Im asking here because from experience its pretty hard to make friends during concerts in Vienna. I never had any troubles at concerts in other cities but here everyone is very serious and closed off
So in case there will be a concert it would be nice to meet and connect! :)

I am going to her show soon and I often like to get to concerts early and wait with other fans to get a good spot.

That being said, I am a bit older than most of her fans and feel kinda out of place doing that?

What is the demographic of the concert like?

title…can’t go, giving it away

I got them because my sister at the time had seizures and such, but now we're both worried it was a bad idea since Sofia likes to interact with the crowd so much. Just wondering if anyone has been at at her concerts and what its like?
