The Top Ten Ed Sheeran in Manila 2015 Banat
Truth be told, it is only not just the performances that are enjoyable when attending concerts but the side events, too that are happening everywhere, things you overheard and funny experiences that you had on, before and after the show.
Here is where I compile the Top Ten craziest, funniest banats that we have overheard and/or blurted out before, during and after the concert. If you find anything that you could relate with or we happen to have made fun of you unconsciously, we apologize in advance, but loosen up, man. This is just for fun.
10) "Saan kayo nakapwesto?"
"Sa edge.... Edge Sheeran."
Okay, that's corny. But too corny it has made me laugh.
9) "Bakit ang lakas ng signal mo? Where are you?" (Because I livetweet at some point of the show)
"Syempre, ate. Nasa tuktok kami e!"
Sa Globe (at sa tuktok) hashtag abot mo ang mundo.
8) "Why is everyone running?"
"It's Matteo and Sarah!!!"
"It's James Reid!!"
I did not see them but reading some news afterwards, I learned that there are a lot of celebrities who went to the show. Well, fangirls/boys of all kinds. ;)
7) "Kapag ba b-in-ash ko si Ed at may tumulak sakin, mabubuhay pa kaya ako?"
You know how steep Mall of Asia Arena structure is. But a friend is one of the engineers who supervised its construction so... (ehem proud friend ehem)
6) "Sana lumabas si Rupert Grint sa Lego House para pwede na ko umuwi. Siya pa naman ipinunta ko dito."
Gotta love the Weasley king. I just remembered when Lego House's music video was released and the amount of text messages, tweets and personal tags and messages that I have received telling me that "Ron Weasley can sing?" He can though not as great, but he nailed the lunatic stalker at a Sheeran concert role on that music video.
"Sana kantahin niya yung Somewhere Over The Rainbow."
Still Rupert Grint-related reference for Rupert sang this one on one of those indie movies that he's graced. It was.....uh...well, Rupert, you know I love you, right? Moving on...
5) When somebody went onstage to check on the equipment minutes before Ed came out, the fans hollered wildly and we are like, "Hoooooy!!! Kalma lang!!!! Hindi pula yung buhok oh! Hindi pa siya yan!!!"
4) "Don't"
"Aww huhu"
"Nina!!!"
"Sarap naman!!! Grabe siguro"
"Photograph huhubells"
"Video!!!! Kahit big screen"
"All of the stars shit"
"Hays"
"Bloodstream"
"Hays"
"Tenerife Sea"
"Parang sobrang bilis naman, dami nang nakakanta"
"Yaan mo na, mabilis din naman siyang magsalita hahahaha"
"Nagtagalog ba si Ed?"
"Kung nagtagalog man siya, hindi ko narinig hahaha"
Actual exchange of text messages between me and my cousin since she was not able to come and watch with me. Aside from Ed's accent, though, the crowd screaming mostly made some of his (very few) banters inaudible. But that is understandable since we cannot help but fangirl ourselves. Inasmuch as I love anything British, sometimes it is still hard to comprehend especially because of the noise, but past relationships *winks* with Irish and British boyband members have made it quite a lot easier.
Ed Sheeran: "I never realised that my music asjflehjskalaudjfjtowpwqrqteydjod Manila!"
Ed Sheeran: "This is honestly, hands on heart, the best reception I have ever received. I am *the crowd started screaming* ajakfltudusgwviqoqkajjopwqhtraxbjkl!!"
Us: "Ano daw sabi?"
3) "Bakit naman ganun yung backdrop video? Binubura yung mukha ni Ed? Bastusan?"
"Sinusunog, ate!!!"
"I See Fire nga daw kasi!!!"
Burning Ed Sheeran alive (on the screen's filter effects)... Well...okay. I See Fire nga naman daw kasi. :)
2) "Akala ko kami pa, hindi na pala."
Hugot feels as Ed left the stage without the proper goodbye.
I cannot.
And lastly, when all else fails and you are still experiencing a post-concert depression, you could always blame the artist...on practically everything.
1) "Ihing-ihi na ko, Ed! Ilabas niyo na si Rupert ng makauwi na!!! Tapos na at lahat yung concert, wala parin!"
"Late na ko, Ed!" (for work)
"I love you, Ed! Buwisit ka talaga!"
