This past weekend I had the amazing opportunity to seeing the one and only, Adele Adkins, live. Having been a fan of Adele since before the release of her hit album 21, hearing that she was going on tour following the release of her third studio album, 25, was news that I had been waiting to hear for years; and on October 29th, it finally happened.

The night opened with just one word; "Hello" and that was all it took for the sold out arena to exclaim in euphoria and for a wave of excitement to overcome the room. As Adele rose up from the center of the room, the audience was left on edge with anticipation to see what we had the night had in store for them.

Not only did the night include an amazing set list featuring songs such as; "Hello," "Chasing Pavements," "Don't You Remember," "One and Only," "Skyfall," "Someone Like You," and "Rolling in the Deep,"but it also included two hours of experiencing Adele's fun and quirky personality you're always hearing about. While each song does tell a story all on it's own, it's nice to hear what Adele's songwriting process was for each one, along with hearing the occasional nostalgic anecdote and perfectly timed joked accompanied by Adele's iconic laughter.

The best part of seeing Adele live, however, is just seeing how down to earth she truly is. Being one of the biggest names in music in the modern era, it would be easy for her to just walk out on a stage, belt out the powerhouse notes that she's so well known for and call it a night.

But alas, that isn't what she does at all, for you see, she interacts with the fans. When I say interact, I mean, interacts. At one point during the show, she spoke to those who were lucky enough to get floor seats and posed for selfies with those in her general area. At one point, she even brought up a girl who happened to be celebrating her birthday that night, and proceeded to have the whole arena help her in singing "Happy Birthday" to this very lucky concert goer.

If you're ever able to see Adele, please please do. Even if you think it's going to be, as Adele would put it, "two hours of misery" I promise you, you'll get more than that. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be heartbroken over people you don't even love. This author is someone who can't wait to see her again.
