What's it like to see the same band 90 times?

I've been obsessed with music my entire life and I had seen many live shows before I discovered Mayday. Ever been to a live show that not only left you in awe but inspired and altered your course of life? There was something different about Mayday, and that was absolutely life changing for me. And the best way I can think of to repay them is to see them as many times as I can.

I've been to over 80 shows, going as far as New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo and a lot of places in between; be it for concert, fan meet or press conference. The highlight of my personal world tour was seeing them 8 times (in the span of 2 weeks); across 2 continents, 3 countries and 5 cities. 

Some of the best shows I've seen were in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Some shows were particularly memorable to me for personal reasons; like the one show I saw on my birthday. Sometimes, it is not even about the band or show, it is about the experience with people I went with. 

Come Sept 15th, I'll see Mayday for the 90th time. I think I might be just a little obsessed with Mayday?
