Dear blog :
I have not attended an outdoor stadium concert before.....not until this year......which was totally
WORTH IT
I attended the
EXO Luxion Concert EXO Planet 2 on 12th March 2016, Exo's first concert held in Malaysia....
(Bought tickets on the internet... )
The concert starts at 8......
I arrived at the stadium ( more like found the main entrance to the stadium ) at 7....and this is the first thing i see......
JAM PACKED !!!!!
And this is only Entrance 1.......I don't even want to think about Entrance 2....
After about........an hour plus of waiting to get into the stadium ( standing in a crowd of squealing fans with exo music blasting ) I finally got into the stadium at a little pass 8 ?
The concert started about 20 minutes late.......yup.....
Inside of the stadium........
The stage....
Not as big as I thought it would be.......but its the first one I've seen so I'm not gonna complain....
And the moment has finally arrived.......the lights went off........
" And at last I see the lights " quote from Tangled.......the silver ocean.......Exo's signature colour...
After showing us a VCR about exo, EXO, the 9 boys from an unknown planet, emerged from behind the screen.......
All I could hear was Banshee screaming.......( already partially deaf )
At this point I have concluded that Malaysian EXO-L's are very supportive to the point of sacrificing their voices......Kudos to EXO-Ls
The first song they performed was Overdose, followed by History. Then they walked to the centre circle ( after striping off their gold jackets cause......why not.....its just too hot in Malaysia ) and performed El Dorado with lightsabers......
P.S.One of Xiumin's lightsaber wasn't working......
Then they performed PlayBoy at the extended stages.......this made the fangirl scream even more....good job EXO.....
After their short introduction, they continued to perform more songs,most of which I don't know (still new here )
They performed a few of the less upbeat songs such as Baby don't cry.....
Performing Baby don't cry......
Kai and Sehun dancing in the water.....( must have been nice to bathe in the middle of a concert......especially with Malaysia's hot weather.....)
Baekhyun playing the piano for the song My Answer.....
Exo performing The Star........
Exodus......
The lightsabers are emerging from the stage......
A short VCR for us and a break for them to change......
Exo singing one of their famous songs Peter Pan
See the short white paper screen with holes behind.......yup.......they changed there....while singing Lucky
( Its like singing in the shower.....but without water.....and having thousands for people looking )
They bust out of the paper sheet with new shirts cause I doubt they have time to change their pants....
They also performed their Christmas Album, bringing back the Christmas feels......
And then they transformed the whole concert into a club......
( Too many lights.......my eyes.....)
That is Chanyeol's DJ platform........
Everyone else dances and sings......
Everyone was literally jumping for the song Drop That.............Literally......
(
The light......My eyes )
Chanyeol and Xiumin training the fans for the song Machine......
I think they were performing Machine in this picture below.......not sure......
Other songs they performed are XOXO, Love me right, Call me Baby, Growl,Sing for you, Unfair and probably many more that I missed out.......sorry......I don't know much.......
The best thing for me other than being able to see EXO live is that I was able to see how supportive Malaysian EXO-Ls were........growing up I always attended concerts that mostly consist of classical music.....and this means there is no cheering, no banshee screaming just clapping ( maybe some whistle sounds here and there ).......whenever the musicians are playing it is always pin drop silence in the audience....
Because of that experience, I have always wanted to attend an outdoor concert with fans cheering and.......simply just seeing everyone full of passion and going nuts over the performers on stage.....its just something that I haven't been able to experience before.
I went to Exo Luxion with the mind of being able to just sit there and enjoy music, but I was greeted with a totally different audience, I could see everyone smiling, talking about what they love about EXO and simply filled of happiness and passion to see their idols. Even though it was loud and I couldn't hear much of the singing ( Ratio of Exo voices : Exo-L = 5:10 ) I still enjoyed myself, found out more about EXO and their songs and being able to feel the hype that everyone else felt...yup...
Credits to the Malaysian EXO-Ls for singing Sing For You.......its probably the largest choir I have ever seen and will ever see.....
And of coarse thank you to EXO and EXO-Ls for making the concert enjoyable and successful, it was definitely worth the experience and maybe I'll go to more concerts now ??? Probably after my SPM.......This concert has indeed opened up my mind to more things and I will definitely cherish this memory forever......
EXO WE ARE ONE,EXO Saranghaja !!!Quote by EXO
