PORTERS COMING TO CHARLOTTE!!! SEP. 11th @ SKYLA AMPHITHEATER! Where all my Charlotte folks at?!?

[torn canyon]

brings me back to his tiktok where he's ilke "do you guys hear gyatt in kittsune maison"

[limber robin]

i normally have to look up lyrics for like all songs or i can’t understand half of what’s being said, some of the lyrics will be like mumbo jumbo

[hollow vault]

Dysphonia is real (i feel your pain)

I spent half the time reading whatever lyrics were on the billboard

[spice jolt]

I had a dream i met porter (literally)

[carmine cedar]

my dream became my reality

[compact saffron]

Now that is epic.

[limber robin]

hearing so much of porters discography all at once really emphasizes the wide variety of his work, going from hollowheart to cheerleader, or mona lisa to look at the sky, is a wild contrast in styles. one minute you’re tearing up and the next you’re screaming your lungs out and jumping up and down, his music hits on every level

[hollow vault]

How'd it feel when you walked on water?

[carmine cedar]

I got my wish

[hollow vault]

<3

[mortal palm]

new lockscreen 🥳

[elder umbra]

I was further back so I didn't get jumped

[hollow vault]

:3

[compact saffron]

Sister’s request. Did anyone get Porter’s transition into Musician?

[spice jolt]

I got a video ( but it was a shitty angle)

[compact saffron]

I don’t mind.

More for the memories, there are videos of the entire concert online.

[flint apex]

yeah i didnt get the bpm intro which im very upset at myself about

[glad monolith]

Had to upload to streamable since it was +25 MB but here’s my video of it. Includes the wind tempos intro + the transition into musician

[flint apex]

OH MY GOD SAME

[mighty siren]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFNSfdYE/

[rain bay]

Shortest 30 minutes ever

[carmine cedar]

It's very tempting don't get me wrong but I alr got the album

[reef talon]

Hello friends. Charlotte showed amazing. I probably saw some of you there. (Found out this discord existed from overhearing a conversation 😋)

[carmine cedar]

These r so beautiful

[heavy lintel]

I wanna go back

I’ve been to a lot of concerts, I’ve seen Porter Robinson before last year and have been listening to him since the day worlds was released (I think, memory is fuzzy the further back I go) and I have never cried that much

[carmine cedar]

Real

@idle dust @rancid eagle y'all cop it?

[rancid eagle]

In my hand rn

Will show in a bit

[heavy lintel]

Didn’t get to see anybody but to be fair I am not active here at all

I’m here for porter memes and announcements

[rancid eagle]

I am exploring

[heavy lintel]

What’d you get?

[carmine cedar]

Ayeee nice

[carmine cedar]

Signed smile vinyl

Porter (or his team idk) dropped off some at lunchbox

[glad monolith]

W

[heavy lintel]

Bruh

I wish I saw that

I’m gonna try and get a vinyl framed in the raising canes in chapel hill they only have worlds

Porter put a signed copy of nurture there but somebody stole it

[idle dust]

yeye!

[carmine cedar]

Niceeee

[rancid eagle]

The funniest part is after everything, I have no clue if we even interacted lol

[idle dust]

i was the guy wearing the "i had a dream about porter shirt" lmao

[rancid eagle]

Ooooo

I was the I Saw the TV Glow girl

[idle dust]

OOOOOO okay okay nice!

[rancid eagle]

My voice has been fucked since Wednesday lol

[idle dust]

thats fair. did you see the worlds albums? i wanted to get one so bad

[rancid eagle]

I did! I was actually surprised to see them

[idle dust]

im just gonna wait for the new release tbf

[rancid eagle]

Same. Already ordered them

[idle dust]

im surprised there was so much signed copies

[rancid eagle]

White boy popped off yeah

I think there was still some left when I finally did leave too

[idle dust]

yeah right when i was leave some guy brought a whole another stack of signed copies

[rancid eagle]

Really? Holy shit

They might in fact end up online then

[idle dust]

btw goated movie

[rancid eagle]

Thank you thank you lmao

Happy to have lightly discussed NieR and Kingdom Hearts

[idle dust]

true lmaooo

[carmine cedar]

They have worlds???

[idle dust]

yeah they had a shit ton of worlds

[carmine cedar]

Huh neat

I'm guessing not the 10th anniversary tho right

[carmine cedar]

I thought lbr limits that

[idle dust]

oh nah nah original

[idle dust]

i have no idea. porter must have just have had stored signed copies and just gave them all to lunchbox and left lmao

[heavy lintel]

They didn’t have a lot of the merch sizes so I couldn’t get anything but the Molly shirt

[hollow vault]

How much were they?

I might have a 3 hour drive ahead of me

[idle dust]

$40

[hollow vault]

aight bet see you all in 3 hours

[heavy lintel]

Yo grab me one /s

[spare aspen]

Damn i didn’t know they had signed copies!

(1:04:55)
@elder umbra

i finally found it

[elder umbra]

Someone posted it earlier #porter-robinson-live message

But now we need the Charlotte drivers comment

[hollow vault]

1:57:32

its shortly after that point

[elder umbra]

20:02

[silk ruin]

yeah that's it

[elder umbra]

I think I heard myself saying "what the hell" after the Charleston comment

[hollow vault]

i mean he's not like

very wrong

but my pride did suffer

we do have Northwoods, after all

and while the citadel is much safer that bitch is just empty

[elder umbra]

Northwoods was supposed to get a Round1

But they cancelled plans

[hollow vault]

oh i just meant the violence there LOL

[elder umbra]

Which is why they canceled plans lol

[hollow vault]

yeahhh

at least we have like

Pinky and Clyde's

which if you havent been, its a super good time

over in park circle right next to the dig

[elder umbra]

Oooooooooooooooooo

[carmine cedar]

Bru

[elder umbra]

Ok we need a charleston porter fans group

[gusty plaza]

omg goat

[carmine cedar]

Im not picky Abt getting a round 1 to be clear I just want more dancerush stardom machines in the states

[glad monolith]

REAL

[carmine cedar]

I swear to God the only one we have is in Greensboro

[rancid eagle]

Emphasis on the only one we have being in Greensboro, there are no others in NC for some god forsaken reason

Which is some sick heinous shit

[carmine cedar]

This is what I said😭

[rancid eagle]

I needed to highlight the bullshit of it lol

[carmine cedar]

Very glad the drive from Charlotte to Greensboro is only like an hour to 90 min long for me

Cause I live very close to concord anyways so

[rancid eagle]

Yeah its not the worst but like let me leave Greensboro behind me

[carmine cedar]

And my actual home home is closer to Raleigh

[rancid eagle]

I live in Concord so

[carmine cedar]

That's rough buddy

[rancid eagle]

Its not bad honestly lol

Especially for $750 a month

[carmine cedar]

Yeah I'm j playing

Oh wait wtf my rent is like 830😭

[rancid eagle]

The benefit of living in a high traffic area but my ass doesn’t care 🫡

[carmine cedar]

It's def cause I'm close to the university but still

I'll be real the only 2 reasons i go to concord is concord mills and ichibancon

[rancid eagle]

Yeah for sure

Also real

I live an undisclosed distance from Concord Mills but having it close is actually super nice especially as someone who likes having a nice movie theater for once

[carmine cedar]

Ichibancon is so cool they should bring a dancerush machine next year

[carmine cedar]

I really like their AMC

I watched end of evangelion there

[rancid eagle]

Never (i know nothing about ichibancon or dancerush)

[carmine cedar]

Aw dang it

[rancid eagle]

Same it is incredibly nice. I am glad to have a theater where limited releases actually get released

Also an update: if I think too hard about Wednesday, I start crying in the Taco Bell parking lot

[carmine cedar]

Me too tbh

[hollow vault]

yeah- its a retro arcade bar, they've got a wonderful selection

[carmine cedar]

I spend a good hour today watching the ttfa/lats edit

[hollow vault]

and they have a FANTASTIC apple cherry cider

[carmine cedar]

Once I get that keychain it's over for me

[rancid eagle]

I pulled up the recording of GtaW and damn (its the song that got me into Porter and Margot’s vocals are terrifyingly beautiful)

[hollow vault]

RENT HERE IS LIKE 1700 A MONTH WTF

okay maybe porter was right

[carmine cedar]

Got Margot is genuinely such a good vocalist

I wanna hear more of her

[rancid eagle]

NC on top for a reason (its 1500 but split with my best friend for a two bed, two bath and I can get to UNCC in like 20 minutes so I like it very much)

[rancid eagle]

Yeah literally

Also the Smile vinyl is just sitting on my coffee table because I am scared to do much of anything with it lol (i already played it but)

[carmine cedar]

U gotta get it framed

[rancid eagle]

100% the plan. I bought the box set too so when that finally arrives it will be the vinyl that gets played and I will frame and display this one

[carmine cedar]

I wish I bought either the nurture or smile box set but alas I am not in possession of either

[rancid eagle]

That’s fair

I am still not in possession of my box set either lmao

[carmine cedar]

Y'all this shit goes hard as fuck

[carmine cedar]

Gonna intercept the ups truck I think

Gonna take that boxset

[rancid eagle]

Pull off a fucking Payday heist for my order

[carmine cedar]

It's gonna be like now you see me

[rancid eagle]

Even better

[torn canyon]

yo guys this porter guy is acctually so fire

[flint apex]

I do

I do live shows every now and then

I have to get some of my equipment fixed though. Was playing with people around me and some dumbass spilled alcohol on my decks

[carmine cedar]

alr bet dj sets at your place every weekend/s

[flint apex]

Oh shit

[flint apex]

The drip is back at work this time its forklift edition

[rain bay]

ily charlotte I miss you a lot already am I still welcome in the charlotte chat despite the fact that I went home

[glad monolith]

everyone is welcome in the charlotte chat

[carmine cedar]

I'm legit so down to make a Charlotte GC once the meetup chat locks up

[glad monolith]

Yeah same

[flint apex]

I already have one but I might expand it into a server

Because 10 seems kinda limiting

[carmine cedar]

PRD NC division🔥

[flint apex]

Fuck it. I'll send an invite here

Oh damm

Well hmm

Oh wait my dms are open. If anyone wants an invite shoot me a dm and I'll send ya one

Unless a mod sees this and can send the link for me

[compact saffron]

Crap, it expired before I could get it. Reupload. If you don’t mind?

[compact saffron]

Holy crap, you got the entire thing. Hats off to you, my friend.

I didn’t want to spend too much time with a phone in my hand, thank you so much for doing us all a big service.

[silk ruin]

Ofc

I was worried that i’d be less able to enjoy it, but nah it didn’t take away from the experience at all

[idle dust]

Just noticed I got the “special” winky face smile signature. Truly a moment in history.

[south dawn]

did you hold your phone up for the entire 2 hours?

[elder umbra]

SMILE! ;D

[idle dust]

Lmao true

[silk ruin]

Pretty much

I held it over my head so i could still watch it normally

I didn’t just like sit still, i still jumped and sang and waved the one hand i had open

[idle dust]

you are a trooper. thank you so much /gen

[silk ruin]

no problem : D

[snow tangle]

I know I won't have my video of the show ready and edited before this channel closes, but I'll edit this message with the link when I post it (if I'm able to)

[flint apex]

We have a discord server for the Charlotte people if ya wanna join

[carmine cedar]

Could I get the inv

[snow tangle]

i would like that! :)

[flint apex]

Alr. Links should be sent to both. Sucks I can't send it here but it's expected

[south dawn]

Could I also get an invite? :)

[hollow vault]

@crude sedge you want in?

[gusty plaza]

Could I also get in?

[crude sedge]

Do it

[shadow solstice]

I’ll send you three invites if your dms are open

[flint apex]

Thanks for helping out. I'm trying to stay on top of it but work is busy tonight

[shadow solstice]

No prob 🙏

[flint apex]

Oh and my boss is being a bitch about phones tonight even though none of us are doing anything wrong

[compact saffron]

Oh word, I’d love in.

[compact saffron]

Totally get it. When I worked Carowinds, phones weren’t allowed on us period.

[flint apex]

Like in the rulebook we can use our phones as long as we aren't on equipment but my boss is bitching at us even off equipment

[compact saffron]

I’m an AV tech associate at a local church now so I’m allowed to use my phone as long as I’m not slacking on whatever we’re working on.

[hollow vault]

what kind of AV systems? i've done a ton of work in full building audio and lighting, plus just general business/home automation stuffs

church sounds like actual AJ and VJ work

[compact saffron]

So day-to-day it’s usually any system maintenance or new installs, as well as prepping CG and lighting + motion backs for Sunday. For our kids retreat programs we do set up from scratch with our mobile rig we load on a rental box truck. As far as specific AV systems, we use a Meyer PA, a dLive S7000 audio console, grandMA3 for lighting and Resolume for our media server. ProPresenter for CG, and a Ross Carbonite switcher for video.

For example right now today we’re just getting a new TV for the nursing mothers private room, and I’m prepping content for an event on Thursday in our secondary room.

[compact saffron]

Just finished mic’ing a drum kit and sound checking it, so stuff like that occasionally. We don’t use that room for worship anymore so we set it back up again as needed.

Nothing crazy, just kick port, snare top, one mic for each tom, and a single overhead.

Oh, and on Sundays, I usually run camera.

There is the occasional networking job, but that doesn’t happen often.

[idle dust]

Forgot to post these (I’m terrible at filming and had my thumb over the camera as I got too excited lmao)

[rancid eagle]

I will always love audio quality bottoming out at Porter shows

[idle dust]

Btw eargasms are very good. front row of that and had no ringing. fantastic ( not an ad)

plus i was holding to a shit ton of merch

[spice jolt]

I DID THE SAME THING

[spice jolt]

I got off brand eargasms but they worked xd

[idle dust]

any protection good! at least ya had some

[umbral mulch]

Rail moment

[compact saffron]

You had to have been right next to a sub, it takes effort to get a phone mic to clip.

As far as earplugs, my sister and dad wore them, to me I was like “this is literally just a Sunday morning to me.”

[idle dust]

oh yeah there was one maybe a foot away

[compact saffron]

I put this in the Porter NC server, it’s worthy of putting in here too for all the Charleston folks.

Charleston only became taboo because it was too powerful.

[hollow vault]

No its because of the whole starting the civil war thing

[idle dust]

oh is there more room in the nc porter discord? id like to join

[carmine cedar]

i got you

[compact saffron]

Imagine if we got enough people that Porter himself eventually joined. Cause he’s like in this server, right? I’ve seen clips of him in VCs.

[hollow vault]

He is in here from time to time on "official" accounts

He probs had an alt or something that lurks

[compact saffron]

Oh he definitely does, who wouldn’t?

[compact saffron]

I was scrolling up, $750 a month? All I can find near Charlotte for just a single bedroom is $1,200/month, including my own town. I’m legit planning on rooming with my friend because of cost.

[rancid eagle]

I split it with my best friend but yeah for me personally its $750, and for her the same for a two bed, two bath

[compact saffron]

Ohh okay that makes sense.

[rancid eagle]

Genuinely just keep looking around especially for anywhere like right next to Charlotte but not in it

[compact saffron]

Yeah right now I’m looking at North Fort Mill-Pineville area, I’ll be closer to work and future employment places.

Plus right around the corner from Carowinds. Get all-season dining, free food.

[carmine cedar]

I love Pineville just cause of the super g mart out there

I genuinely love that place😭

[compact saffron]

Oh my sister absolutely adores that place. Especially with the new food court they opened.

[compact saffron]

Shoutout to whoever got that killer photo, it’s my wallpaper now.

@cedar spoke

I got wallpaper FOMO so I had to find a killer Charlotte shot.

[cedar spoke]

Hahah omg ty im gonna have wallpaper fomo too now lol

The post concert depression is still hitting me

[cedar spoke]

Im only now realizing the quality is much worse up close lol i need a better phone camera

[compact saffron]

Don’t stress it. It’s for the memories and euphoria.
