"First concert namin to and this concert is very special kasi first time and we're very excited na maipakita kung anong kaya namin, isa't isa.
“Excited kami, medyo naiiyak nga po ngayon.
“We're very excited and sana maging okay lahat at maging successful tong concert namin.”
Sina Julie Anne at Rita ay sanay na sa mga konsiyerto, ganundin si Jessica. Pero ang iba ay ito ang kauna-unahang salang nila sa big stage.
Dagdag ni Julie Anne, “More than anything, we're very excited to perform for our fans, our supporters.
“Kasi nga, regularly nagpe-perform kami sa AOS.
“We have a Queendom segment.
“And this time, we are going to perform live, in front of them.
“So, it's going to be a longer concert experience.
“And we want to say thank you as well sa lahat ng bumubuo ng Queendom: Live concert.
"So, kung wala sila, siyempre wala rin. Para po ito sa mga sumusuporta sa amin, especially yung mga Queenies namin.
“And since day one na talaga sila yun, nandiyan para magbigay ng inspirasyon sa amin, para magpatuloy sa lahat ng ginagawa namin, sa lahat ng mga trabaho namin, sa mga performances namin.
