It was the night thousands of Carolina girls have been waiting for.  The British invasion boy band One Direction brought their highly anticipated tour to Time Warner Cable Arena and no one left disappointed.  It was deafening as Directioners finally set their sights on Liam, Harry, Niall, Louis and Zayn.  With handmade t-shirts, painted arms, ripped jeans and a few lit up shirts, thousands of girls jumped around the arena singing along to every word the boys sang.

With a comfort and ease, all five guys ran the stage like pros making sure to visit as close to the fans as possible.  It was hard not to smile along as the band joked with each other on stage, laughed along to private jokes and made girls scream with every wink and word they sang.

Kiss 95.1 was up close and personal with the band as they performed, grabbing some great live photos from the show.  Check out the pictures of One Direction and openers Olly Murs and Manika.  Watch Drex & Maney’s exclusive interview with the boys here!
