      I don't know how she went a full hour almost non-stop singing with all the growls and screams she does and still finishing out talking like she doesn't have a hoarse throat! Definitely a master of her craft!

    That's awesome! I've been seeing the shorts she's been posting of her concerts and they look like a blast.

    I know this is gonna sound lame, but please invest in a decent set of earplugs—future you will thank you. Etymotic ER20s are like $20 and do a great job of reducing the volume while not muffling the sound terribly like cheap foam earplugs would do; I'm sure there are other good ones, those are just the ones I have. Personally, I find I enjoy concerts more with earplugs than without them since they allow me to hear the actual details of the music better instead of HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT IS LOUD. And of course, it doesn't stop you from feeling the bass!

      Yeah it made me wish I brought my ear plugs that I forgot back in alaska, but for something that I rarely participate in I didn't mind feeling like my ears were bleeding from the sheer raw power of her voice. I was impressed by the techies work behind the scene that calibrated all the sound equipment because she should have been peaking her mic almost all the time with how wild she was going.

        Ngl sometimes I worry about Ado's voice from how intensely she screams but I imagine she's got a vocal coach and all that. And yeah, I managed to grab a recording from YouTube before it was privated and was impressed by how clear the mix was!

        Here's the audio from that recording if you're interested (link expires in 72 hours). I also have the video, although there's not much to see--I know Ado does her concerts the way she does out of privacy concerns, but you literally cannot see her at all in the video so I wouldn't feel bad sharing it.
