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.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
