Ed Sheeran’s concert

I haven’t been in too many concerts, I think to spend to much money in live music it’s a
waste, but this one is very special, because it was from my favorite artist Ed Sheeran. He is a Britain singer, songwriter and producer. This musician born in small town and he worked so hard to make his music known. He began to record his own music when he was so young (13 years) and independently released his first compilation of songs and two EPs, but years later in 2016 he won a Grammy Award for his song “Thinking out loud”.

I have listened to Ed Sheeran since 2013, when he wasn’t as well-known as he is now, so I never thought I could see him perform live, also, before this tour, he came to Chile in 2015, but I couldn’t attend at that time, so I was really happy when I got a ticket for this new concert, that was on May of 2017 at the Movistar Arena.

That day I went with my sister to the Arena, and when, after waiting a while, he finally showed up in the stage, it was just amazing, just him, his guitar, the microphone and a loop pedal to mix songs. The atmosphere was so intense, whenever came a ballad song, it was so emotional, the crowd turned on their cellphone’s flashlight, and for the pop songs or hip-hop beat ones everyone cheered up and clapped, sang, jumped at the rhythm of the music.

But my favorite part was when, he started to play my favorite song “The A team”,  I was really surprised because it's a song of his first album, and the performance was so incredible that even sounded better than the studio one! That’s why I really enjoyed the concert, I passed through many emotions with it.

The only anecdote is that I was trying to record everything, but my phone literally died. I couldn’t take many photos and videos so I only have the memories of the concert and a couple of videos I could save. In the future I hope to see him perform live again, If I do it I'll sing passionately and I'll to take at least some photos.
