hELXIG 42,442 Posted January 29, 2024 Share Posted January 29, 2024 (edited) So I went to the Portals Tour last night in Auckland is it was SO GOOD you guys. Unfortunately today I am so fatigued and exhausted from multiple days no sleep, the show, other things, so I might not be super coherent First of all I went on my own and had to drive almost 2hrs either way after a night of no sleep so that was fun (and a little dangerous oops) but it was so worth it. The show exceeded my expectations! It's the one tour I managed to completely see nothing of online so everything was new! There was so much fog and lighting and lasers??? And visuals and confetti that was little pink moths like the promo pic. The songs were so amazing live omgggg.. I love when pop artists incorporate a real band into the mix. It just makes it hit so much harder! Something I noticed though is it sounds so lackluster on my phone recordings because in real life I could feel it in my body.. but I was right next to the speaker and also two from the front! I was surprised she had a THEREMIN player but it was such a cool addition to the band. Seeing her in real life the mask and outfit were actually so effective! For the first half of the show until I got a good look I was literally thinking "did she do the full prosthetics for our show?" It was actually so ethereal and cool in real life, it just doesn't translate on camera. And I always say this every time I see a celeb in real life, but she looked skinny and healthy irl. I remember having the same thought when I saw Enigma and at the time everyone was talking about Gaga's 'weight gain' The crowd was going crazy and so hyped it was such good energy. It was the first concert of the young girl next to me and she fainted and we had to help her up and she begged the security to not pull her out and refused to go the other young couple next to me were super nice too and the girl in front travelled from the whole other end of the country all on her own to be there! I was glad to have people to talk to and freak out with. It also poured rain before the show so we were literally all wet through it was an experience At the end they held up the new inclusive pride flag and Palestinian flag and shouted "free Palestine" and also told us that we were such a good crowd and she had a great time Oh and weirdly she played the album front to back but skipped Leeches.. Also she played some songs for the encore that surprised everyone.. Spoiler Play Date and the crowd went NUTS. Show & Tell, Mad Hatter, Leche Of The Siren which went so hard live Amazing night. 10/10 And if you want to you can look at my Instagram story today Edit: OH I just remembered this! Her boyfriend Verde was there taking photos of her the whole time he was on our side of the stage so literally just over the barricade. He's cute irl and also William Blair Scott her hair stylist and her makeup artist were all chillin and singing along too. William is very So cute that her entourage still comes out to watch and enjoy the show Edited January 29, 2024 by Helxig I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely I’ll go with my friends I wish she was bringing the Trilogy Tour here but maybe she played some old fan favourites because she knew she wasn't bringing it here. Lucky you have friends to go with! Noone I know is a fan especially not a big fan like me who wanted to be at the front and paid for early entrance tickets OH I just remembered this! Her boyfriend Verde was there taking photos of her the whole time he was on our side of the stage so literally just over the barricade.

I guess it'd probably be too costly if it were made with actual glass (also very fragile cause it could break in transit perhaps?) -- It kind of looks like a hard candy so I kind of get what you mean! ｡ﾟ☁ glued up, sometimes it's too much ☁ ﾟ｡ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does that person say she's making new music when Melanie said she's staying where she wrote songs for Portals? Two months until I see her 🧡Should go home but the partysick wants me🧡 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hELXIG 42,442 Posted March 14, 2024 Share Posted March 14, 2024 I actually guessed that she would have been filming more music videos in the downtime between tours, but this is good too I think I will forever mourn the movie, but if we keep getting videos for every song it softens the blow. The Portals movie could become Melanie's ARTPOP Act II I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
