I have never been a very big fan of the concert. I get publicity about live music, but to bear the huge crowd, it is pushed around, water and snacks, sweat, standing for hours, and forever dirty washrooms, I make my noise Will stay at home with a headphone. Or so I thought that until Ed Sheeran and R Rahman took the stage to sing the couple of an unexpected ‘shape’ and ‘Urvashi Urvashi’.

Ed Sheeran is on a tour of six cities in India organized by Bookmyshow Live. +-= × × Tour (aka the Mathematics Tour) is the fourth concert tour by the English singer-song, and Chennai was his third stop in India.

For the first time concerts, I found Ed Sheeran the right artist to start. He is a sweet, happy, happy-fortunate artist with the sound of gold, and I knew most of the songs on my settist, even if not from the heart. So with my most comfortable pair of shoes, I took my way through security check, found a boba tea for a good sugar crowd, first settled to see the sun (not above a palace on the hill) , And then saw the inauguration Act, singer Jonita Gandhi exposed some incredible tricks.

Heating the crowd, he performed hit numbers like ‘What Jhumka’, ‘Chelma Chelma’ and ‘Arabic Kuthu’, and the crowd danced and sung together. After a small break, a sharp walk around the arena, inspecting the food stalls and planning my snacks, I stood in front and center in the middle of the buding expectation.

In an eye nap, Ed Sheeran ran on stage with a guitar in his hand, wearing a black T-shirt with the word Chennai printed on it. This small gesture, which has become a symbol of its concerts in each city, which he is visiting, felt more personal to a touch here. Barely international artists are coming to Chennai for big concerts, and it reflects the beginning of doing something new. Is this our year of many big acts that make a bine for the city?

His settlement’s first song was ‘Castle on the Hill’, and it set the tone to what to follow. Ed said, “This is a selfish journey for me, because I came here to be a tourist and spent the last two days,” Ed said on stage, who is posting updates on his social media to get a head massage. AR Rahman’s music academy sings his songs at KM College of Music and Technology.

When he was on wrapping on stage without breathing a breath, I realized that I wanted me that I also wanted. During its entire performance, the Vocal range and command of Ed looked like a wonderful experience. Loop pedal gave this One-Man Army Banking Vocals, Instruments and a Pedestal to woo the crowd. “When I was younger, I thought I should have an electric guitar and be in a rock band, but it just didn’t suit me. So I got a loop pedal and thus I have done it for the last 20 years. This means that the members of the band will be you guys, ”he said, the whole crowd practices the crowd.

I cried twice during the concert. The first was during the ‘IC Fire’ because it felt that Neerad was happy in me, and the second was during ‘Khushi’. Me and a thousand others sang with ‘photograph’, ‘love yorself’, ‘perfect’, and ‘Thinking out loud’. All around all around the wires, holding hands, holding hands and couples with ad on stage.

Bang, amidst his singing of ‘Shape of You’, Ed surprised ‘Urvashi Urvashi’ and welcomed the audience welcoming Chennai’s very music superstar Er Rahman and surprised the audience. Rahman and Ed blocked a remix of both these songs as the blind sung by a happy crowd. “Ed Sheeran, welcome to Chennai,” Rahman said before exiting the stage.

The concert ended with electrification performance of ‘bad habits’, and I think it is safe to say that I am a converted. A new mining fan of live music experience. This is anything, but a bad habit, and more international acts are expected here in Chennai this year.
