If You Still Have The Chance To See Shelter Live Tour, Please Go!

Porter and Madeon have an extraordinary synergy on stage and it fills the room with an energy I can’t put into words.

If You Still Have The Chance To See Shelter Live Tour, Please Go!

Amanda Mattingly

Porter Robinson and Madeon have never been shy about their support for one another. They’ve both referenced each other as an inspiration since the beginning of their careers, so it wasn’t a huge surprise to fans when they decided to team up for their single Shelter. The single is a perfect collaboration of their individual styles and I think it’s safe to say it tugs on everyone’s heart strings.

There aren’t too many U.S. show dates left in the Shelter Live Tour, but if you happen to live near one I’m begging you to go. I thought the single itself was the biggest gift to Madeon and Porter fans, but that was until I saw the live show. After seeing Porter’s Worlds Tour several times back in 2014 and then Madeon’s Adventure Tour back in 2015, I knew this show was going to be unmissable. All I can say is, I was right. It was the most visually fantastic show I’ve ever seen (and that’s coming from someone who saw Worlds Tour 3 nights in a row). On stage they’re both set up with a mics, keyboards, drum pads, mixers, and launchpads (amongst probably so much more), and both sing a fair amount throughout the show, even singing songs by the other. Porter and Madeon have an extraordinary synergy on stage and it fills the room with an energy I can’t put into words.

After already seeing the show twice (once in DC and once in NYC) I impulsively bought 2 tickets to the the second night at Madison Square Garden and took a friend. About 30 minutes into the set my friend hugs me and says “this is so beautiful” and I thought I was going to start bawling my eyes out right then and there. After meeting old fans and new fans, and seeing kids with their parents, I realized that this was an electronic show for anyone and everyone. Not one person in the room didn’t feel the uplifting energy Madeon and Porter created on stage, and I'll fully admit I shed a tear each night I saw it. I might sound like a huge fangirl, and I won’t deny that I am, but Shelter Live Tour was my favorite part of 2016.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
