Hello. On November 17th 2024, I saw the great Billie Eilish. I was with my mother and grandfather. To begin with, I wanna say there were so many Billie fans there, including me. We got there and there were so many people! I got to trade bracelets with several fans. We went to the merch table first and I got a hoodie and a tour shirt. We then went to our seats, we had such a spectacular view! It was now time for the openers Nat & Alex Wolff, they were so good! There was one part where they talked about their dad almost passing because of cancer, but now he’s so much better, they also wrote a song called “All My Plans” about him which was so good. There was so much light and they were so energetic. I loved everything they did. They were such a great opener, and I’m sure they will be head-lining soon!
As Billie is about to come out, all of the people got so excited, emotional, and happy. Billie started with “Chihiro”. She was on top of this big cube that lifts her above the stage, it was so cool. Now she’s moving to the next song, “Lunch”. She has so much energy, and she’s running around everywhere on stage, it was awesome. There were so many cool lights that added to the overall atmosphere of the show. The next song “NDA” was my favorite song. The performance was incredible and the lights and her energy was outstanding! The next songs were “Therefore I Am”, “Wildflower and “When The Party’s Over” They really let us hear how great her vocals are, and she was so gorgeous in the lights. Next up was “The Diner”, it was so perfect and beautiful, her vocals were slaying. I loved it so much, it was like so cool and the lights OMG so cool!!! After “Ilomilio” came Bad Guy, this is my grandpa’s favorite. The way she continuously runs and jumps around was absolutely crazy and special. During the song “The Greatest”, the crowd had their flashlights on, which lit up the entire arena. For “Male Fantasy”, she grabbed her backup vocalists, and they sat in a circle and talked. They were talking about the cow licks in their hair and showed them to us. It was so funny. When they started singing, it was so heavenly and beautiful. Then came “Skinny”, “T.V.”, and “Bittersuite”. The lights were everywhere, and I loved her performance with her guitar. The projections on the screens were fantastic, and the lights were perfection. Then she sang one of my favorites. “Bury a Friend”. The performance was dark and cool, and the graphics told a literal story. Then she moved to her next song “Oxytocin”. The feel of it was FIRE! Now she’s moving to her next song, “You Should See Me In A Crown”. I love that song, it gave out so many vibes. I loved it and her vocals… “mwah”. Now she’s moving to the B stage and her next songs “Guess” and Everything I Wanted”. They had some of the music video on the digital screen with Charli XCX. It was so pretty with the lights and the displays. For “Song Is Blue”, she goes back to the main stage and runs around singing with her fans who were lucky enough to be up front. She got emotional during “Lovely, and it was indeed, lovely. The next few songs, “idontwannabeyouanymore”, “Ocean Eyes”, and “L’amour De Ma Vie”, were great and so jazzy. She literally was like a pop Frank Sinatra. Now moving to her next song, “What Was I Made For”. She just sat down on the edge of the stage singing while the lights went to pink because that song is in Barbie. Her next song was “Happier Than Ever”. I loved the way it’s like a beat drop and it’s so emotional. The crowd was really into it. The last song “Birds of a Feather” got the crowd on the floor who were in a big circle spinning around. Billie loved it. The concert ended and as she said her good-byes, confetti filled the venue, and I was able to trade bracelets for the confetti that had her logo on it. Special thank you to the other fan that gave me a piece of the logo confetti! Thank you, Billie, for coming to Omaha. I think it’s safe to say, we want you back.
