November 8th, 2016. I had the most amazing time getting to see Troye Sivan LIVE in concert. His voice is absolutely beautiful. Currently in the "post-concert depression" stage.
Back story. I had bought tickets for his Blue Neighbourhood tour back in November 2015. That was a year ago. The concert was set for February. Unfortunately, Troye got sick and had to postpone his concert. It was announced that the new date was November 8th, 2016, and I was really bummed because he had later announced his Suburbia tour. And I haven't even gotten to see him for his Blue Neighbourhood tour yet!! My friend and I, and I'm sure over a hundred other people, waited a whole year for that one night and let me just say... it was WORTH the wait.
Day of the concert. My friend Kayla and I made our way to the concert venue shortly after school had finished. I was supposed to go to swim practice that day, but skipped (I did inform my coaches that I would be absent) because of the long commute. It took us over an hour to get there and so, we got there around 5:50pm. Sadly, Kayla and I made the mistake of being underdressed for the weather and not taking an umbrella with us. We waited outside for a good hour or so, being drenched in the rain, hoping we won't get hypothermia. Luckily, these two really sweet girls, who were standing behind us in the line, offered to share their umbrella with us so we wouldn't get sick. (Shoutout to those girls, who probably won't read this post, but still!) The concert opened with Dua Lipa, who we didn't know at first, but I recognized her when she performed "Blow Your Mind"! The whole time during the concert, we kept being pushed forward and eventually made our way to this "stripper pole" stand thing. And because we had nowhere to go, we kneeled down on the platform of the pole thing and our knees just couldn't survive the whole night.
I filmed clips of Troye's performance. I ended up cutting the clips down to around 10 seconds each and put it together to create this video.
