Surprised on surprises
by Gilad Shavit on 2024-10-06The Danforth Music Hall - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5I’d like to start of saying I am a dude, not one of those fangirls who listen to his music on TikTok videos. Ive been listening to Artemis since 2020 when I was exploring music during Covid times, and fell in love with his music then. Now, the story starts off with seeing Artemas outside the venue and being in his video (although for a post saying people don’t recognize him haha) and ended with an amazing performance. We also got a surprise opener from Asal, who performed 5-6 songs. She was amazing and did her best despite having lost her voice. When Artemis finally came up, the room was so energetic. Everyone was singing along (I was screaming more than singing), and I was surprised by the amount of people who actually knew the words to his songs other than me hahaha. Towards the end of the show - the last 2 or 3 songs - Asal popped up out of nowhere behind me in the crowd! She was super nice and friendly, and ultimately had another surprise in store. During the last song, “I like the way you kiss me”, we had started a mini mosh pit with Asal, my friend, strangers, and myself of course. Thank you so much for the experience, it was amazing finally seeing Artemis live even though I don’t really have the money to be spending on concerts right now. And maybe now I’ll go to an Asal concert too when I’m better off. Tysm Artemis! Welcome to Canada!!! Oh and, I bet you to play “Shall We Celebrate”, was really hoping to hear my favorite song at a concert.
