So Niall Horan really brought 40 fans out to a beautiful rural setting, gave them dinner and drinks, and a live performance with song snippets from his upcoming album?? And then he went out and drank wine and chatted with them??? This is a man who is truly grateful to his fans.
“don’t go anywhere i can’t follow”
“i wish you could see how you look in my eyes one more time, would it make a difference?”
“kids with water guns”
“time passes so fast and i couldn’t tell you goodbye”
Niall Horan about Liam Payne.
"I just didn't think it was real. Someone so young, you're not expecting to hear that they've passed, especially someone that you've just seen. I just went back from shock to sadness to anger."

And now here we our about to start the third tour. I’ve got a really really good feeling about this. That’s not some bullshit marketing ploy to make you come to the show, I genuinely haven’t ever felt this assured about the show we’re about to put on. If you’re reading this and you’re a fan, don’t underestimate your importance in how I feel professionally. Now if I’m real with myself I’m sure there will be a few moments where I get in my own head but after all these years I feel so protected by you all in those spaces. I literally can’t fucking wait for these shows.
Will it be a performance worthy of a vocal Olympian? No
Will it be the best selling show of the year? No
Will it be a show with numerous lyric sheets on stage like we’re in the stone age before autocue? Maybe
What it will be though is a moment for all of us to celebrate how far we’ve all come. Diary entries over. Just wanted to update you on what was going on in my head.
The 2nd tour had a different energy about it. I felt much more assured in the music in an album that was literally designed for the live show but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have some nights where I questioned myself. About midway through that tour I remember metaphorically looking in the mirror and saying to myself that I needed to allow myself the success and the idea of being capable on my own. Gratitude is an incredible feeling but also comes with its own pressure, I wanted so much to deliver for you all every night and wasn’t allowing myself room for error. That momentum shift was really important for me. The last show of that tour absolutely blew my fucking mind, it gave me room to reflect on how far I’d come. Never did I imagine WE’D be able to achieve this
My first tour was so fucking terrifying to me and maybe because I was pretty hard on myself, weird little paradox every night of feelings the adrenaline and the love of the crowd all the while scolding myself in my head. I had some incredible shows that tour and proved a lot to myself but still it was a tough one mentally
