The first Messer show was so worth the trip.. I absolutely love his music.. wouldn't trade the memory for anything!  And the chance to meet so many other dedicated Messer Dolls was a very welcome bonus!  Traveling alone isn't really my thing, but I didn't feel alone at all. One hundred percent would (and hopefully will) do this again. Messer, thank you for your music and for this fantastic show.. the whole thing was such a beautiful experience!

Show was AMAZING well worth the flight across the country (twice!) & waiting out all day in the pouring rain! Meeting so many Messer dolls in person and seeing Mitch as Messer up on the stage were my favorite things. It was both surreal and incredible. I can't wait for more!

Flying solo across the country to see Messer's debut show in person was one of the scariest and best decisions I've ever made. It was a joy to meet so many wonderful Dolls, and the show itself was simply incredible. Getting to hear unreleased songs being premiered live was such a gift, and on stage, Messer was ethereal. The whole experience rewired my brain. Getting to be up front was 100% worth standing out in the rain for five hours- and I'd do it again !!

For me the Messer show was a long anticipated, tangible culmination of what Mitch had been showing us for years through the Messer photoshoots and videos. To experience it live and surrounded by others who were all feeling the exact same thing in that moment...moment of a lifetime. I appreciate the aesthetic of Messer so much more, it's more than JUST the music, it's a beautiful blend of art forms.

I don't particularly like flying.
Not a fan of standing in rain.
Usually not into 'loud'.
I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
The show was sublime.

It’s hard to describe what it was like to finally watch this gem of a human standing solo on stage, but it’s a night I’ll never forget. Traveling across the country(2x🤪) with one of my best friends, that I only have because of him and his art, to stand in the rain all day long to make sure we could be front and center to the man that brought us together—it’s a memory that I’ll cherish forever. Getting to see so many people singing his lyrics back, and seeing him shine in the way only he does, it’s pretty incredible. I can’t wait to see him continue to conquer his dreams and all of the memories yet to be made!

I had the pleasure of seeing Messer in his first concert at the Morrocan Lounge in Los Angeles on January 14th 2023. I flew by myself with all of my anxiety from Pennsylvania to California. I had the time of my life meeting other dolls and seeing Mitch up close. His songs including the newer ones melted my heart. I had a blast singing along and dancing (WHICH IS SOMETHING I DON'T DO) along to the beautiful music. I met so many ppl that I have only talked to on discord. Everyone has beautiful souls and amazing hearts. My deepest thank you go out to everyone that I got to meet and hang with at the concert. As for our Messer he was perfect as ever always our ANGEL.  I will most definitely be looking forward to more music from him and do my absolute best to get to as many concerts as I can.

I couldn't wait to see Messer live and flew 12 hours from Germany to America which was an adventure in itself. Finally I was able to get to know dolls that I only knew from pics. I was warmly welcomed and accompanied.  A great feeling to be surrounded by people, united in the love of Messer...and in the same destiny of waiting six hours in the pouring rain for Messer. But then: Messer's first live performance was such a unique unforgettable experience. To be able to witness the dream of a beloved, revered artist come true was a gift. And what a thing!  It was truly magical: Messer himself, the songs, the vibes, the atmosphere and the love that was everywhere. This indescribable feeling when the dolls sang along to all the well-known songs, the silence to listen to the new songs and the joy of finally being able to celebrate Messer was so touching. Messer's  appearance, charisma, his dancing , his sensational performance with the variety of his voice just blew me away.... It was incredibly beautiful. I can't wait for the second live show: finally seeing Messer again, meeting dolls again... Supporting Messer is both a passion and a task. It's absolutely worth it to fly from Germany to America.

This was fate calling.  When Messer had to cancel his original concert and postponed it to January it felt like a sign.  The new concert date was the weekend after my birthday- and if I've learned anything, I have learned that you should treat yourself when you can to experience the things you want to in your life... so I gave myself a birthday present and flew cross-country from Georgia (first time flying on my own and first time ever to the West Coast/LA).  There are not enough words to say it was worth the trip to see the birth of Messer on stage.  The community of Dolls are the best I have experienced and his performance was beautiful.  It was an intimate venue and the rain as we waited outside seem to bring us together even more because that was a true act of dedication! The love in that space for the music and the artist was physically tangible and months later I still think back on that night and just smile- wanting to go back over and over again!

The whole Messer experience was incredible. Seeing him so close, so immersed in the performance, so happy and appreciative of the crowd under his spell. I was thrumming with energy as his voice blended with the music I knew so well. I came to LA having only met two Messer dolls, but went home thrilled to be a member of such a wonderful and loving group. On to show #2!

 I think we've all had those moments when you've felt so drawn to something that it defies reasoning. Messer's light, his heart, and his truth shows in everything he does and just draws you in and surrounds you! I knew that when that first show was announced, I would be there. But October was impossible. While I felt terrible for the cancellation, I was rejoicing inside as I knew I'd be going. From walking into the venue, standing up front, and meeting new people, to absorbing every sound and emotion and hug was magical! Then it happened. He was there, on stage, singing to me, to us! I was so tuned into him, the music, the words and meaning, everyone around me just fell away and I reveled in it all.  As soon as it ended, I was ready to buy the next ticket and book the next flight. While another show is not scheduled yet, I'll hold on to the promise of new music and will be waiting in line for the next gathering of the Dolls! We are blessed! -T.
