Hi, all! I've been having 2 weeks of holis since my exams ended and yesterday I went and watch Josh Groban's Awake World Tour Concert here in Sydney Opera House. I've been looking forward to the concert (Read my other post on my blog) for so long. It was worth the $150 I spent - I was about 10 rows from the stage. The concert started off with Josh singing "You are Loved (Don't Give Up)" with him shrouded behind a massive white satin drape which fell down in one swift motion during the climax of the song -revealing Josh on stage. Everyone was ecstatic! Mostly he sang a collection of songs from his latest album "Awake" but did everyone's favourite - "You Raise Me Up" as he last song. This was my first time attending his concert and boy! did he blow me away! He stand true to his commitment of putting his heart and soul to every single note he sang. I was truly touched by his voice. One fan put up a sign which says "Josh, can we exchange our drum sticks with yours. We brought ours." Guess what Josh did! He exchange his drum sticks with that of the fan!
The highlight of the whole concert for me was when he actually walked past the very aisle that I was seated (right past me!)... OMG! 
I manage to shake his hands and he was so great about interacting with his fans that he took as much time as he can to shake our hands while singing the song. Of course, you can't say you've been to a concert without buying the merchandise - I bought a hoodie, a coffee mug and the program book. Below are some photos and a short clip of Josh singing "You Raise Me Up" in the concert. This was indeed my most memorable and enjoyable concert I've been.
