{ K-pop } My Epik High Concert Experience

So a couple days ago, I went to my first official concert ever. I had the time of my life, it was absolutely amazing!

I was lucky enough to see Epik High at The Vogue Theatre during their encore show. The first show scheduled for May 31st sold out in less than a minute so they decided to add an encore concert on the next night. I'm so thankful for this otherwise I wouldn't have gotten the opportunity to see them perform.



We stood in the pit, on the left hand of the stage (facing the stage), so we were quite close. I was able to take some videos using my phone - of course they're not that great quality and they're also not all complete, but I wanted to record some footage so I could relive it through video afterwards, even if watching the video itself gives only like 1/1000 the feeling of actually being there xD.

So I've been an Epik High fan since around 2009-ish, and the first song of theirs I ever listened to was "One". To this very day, it's still one of my favorite songs. I was soooo excited when they announced they would visit Vancouver on their tour and I almost died of anticipation waiting for the concert to start xD

it's Tukutz!!!!!

Tablo, Mithra Jin & DJ Tukutz (the quality is horrible, I know. I cringe as a photography enthusiast, but oh well~)

Here are some videos I took~

They got Tukutz to sing Big Bang's "Loser" xD It was hilarious! But man.. the way the crowd sang along to Loser... I really wish Big Bang would hold a concert here :(

---

This performance was seriously awesome, too. There were so many people singing/rapping along with the lyrics. It was magical +_+

One! Time is ticking, ti-time is ticking ticking. Time is ticking, ti-time is ticking away! Probably my favorite performance of that night, although Born Hater is a really strong contender!!

---


Their last "official" performance of the night was of Fan. Pretty fitting, right?

---


Here's the encore performance. Seriously when the beat drops at the beginning of the song... it was just plain awesome. I can't even begin to describe the feeling of actually witnessing that firsthand!

This was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my whole life. Epik High has some amazing stage presence, and combined with the excitement from the crowd, the synergy was just surreal and intoxicating. I wish I could go to another concert soon :(((

Oh! I also picked up a t-shirt and a snapback before the show!


There were two designs: "Epik High" and "Born Hater". I wanted to get both designs on each piece, but they ran out of merchandise the first night :( Oh well. I still wanted some awesome souvenirs to remember the night by.

Alrighty, that's all for now :) Hope you enjoyed.
