MUSIC · Adele Live 2016




[Taken by me on Samsung Galaxy S5]

On the 22nd I was lucky enough to see Adele performing live at The O2 Arena in London, although I was hoping that I would secure a ticket for the 18th so that I could see her on my birthday! A fortnight before the show I received my tickets (First photo), unlike most gig tickets these were parcelled up nicely in a Adele logo sleeve and another sleeve welcoming me to the show which really added to the whole experience. Much nicer to receive than a letter containing only the tickets. The show opened with 'Hello', as you were probably more than aware if you follow the London Local Snapchat story at all. Even though I had seen all those snaps, it wasn't any less spine tingling. The echoing 'hello' with the piano intro along with Adele rising onto the B stage made me overcome with emotions, in fact I nearly cried as she came into view. Inbetween songs Adele was very interactive with the crowd, more so than any artist or band I've seen before. As fun as it was for those with close-up seats I think us on the top tier felt a bit jealous.
