Duality Tour Discussion

[strong edge]

At least he looked back to her as the butterfly for a quick second! 😄

Usually whenever I'm at a venue with security up front they are sitting down in seats facing the audience.

The last two shows I went only had security on the sides of the stage, but then again... Omaha had a tall stage so no one was going to try to run up to her. Haha.

Omaha stage

Between the front row and the railing to the stage would have been tough to get any security guard there. They would have had to sit on our laps. 😄

[haughty totem]

That would be....awkward!!!

[strong edge]

Lindsey and the Mountain Man

[haughty totem]

Sooooo we all gotta thank that mountain man for Lindsey's fingers not freezing off!!! Good to know!!!!

[strong edge]

Lindsey: "Am I wearing underwear?"

[haughty totem]

Gengar videos=clickbait!!!

[tough trellis]

Naaaaaa you heard my scream 😂😂😂

[true rose]

"Itssss LENKA!" 😆🙌🏻

[granite carbon]

I think this picture is probably my favourite 😄 You can hear my scream without hearing it

@tough trellis is having her m&g tonight in Budapest and I can't wait to hear it all!

[haughty totem]

Awesome!!!

[bright epoch]

Woohoo!!!!

[tough trellis]

Where did you find that one???

I LOVE IT

[granite carbon]

O2 Universum shared it on their fb page ❤️

[tough trellis]

IT WAS AMAZING!

[granite carbon]

I'm so happy!! ❤️

[old thunder]

Aww that's awesome!

[old thunder]

It's interesting, i seem to remember that Lindsey's dad helped her not freeze her fingers

[haughty totem]

Maybe the big guy was outside and her dad was inside??

[old thunder]

Maybe you're right and they were both a big help

https://youtu.be/NkN9fZElVI4?t=90&si=-lWWZlE665RNHpf-

[haughty totem]

And yet Lindsey still seemed to be the most lively of the bunch even with freezing on the side of a mountaintop!!!!

[granite carbon]

I need to watch it and connect the dots - had no idea that this was the coldest one!

Thank you for discussing it here and by that, actually making me know a bit more about Lindsey again ❤️

[old thunder]

Aw yay! I'm glad we could do that for you 😊

[granite carbon]

Ok so after a few days, I realized I didn't tell you guys how my m&g went in Prague and what I asked in q&a, right?

M&G: I told Lindsey "welcome back to Prague!" and then told her my name and social media nickname with saying that we talked on Stationhead. And Lindsey was like - "yea you play the piano, right? It's so good to see you in person!" (in other words, she remembers me!!! ❤️ )

Q&A: I managed to ask a few questions as there were a lot of shy people..

1. "Would it be possible in the future to order the Crystallize violin outside of US?" - Lindsey said that she doesn't fully understand how Yamaha operates but in general they work with local licences. She already had that talk with them about a year ago, as of course her fanbase is not only in the US. She thanked me for that question and for the fact that I care, and told me she will refresh that conversation (if I remember it correctly).

2. "How is Luna?" - she's good, currently in Arizona and Lindsey really misses her furry buddy. She was so sweet in describing how Luna wishes her good luck before every show and cuddles her. Aaaaw!!!

3. With a slightly cheeky grin: "Will we do a tiktok tonight?" - Lindsey usually does them when an idea hits her before the show, but she told me she would think about it... aaaand the result is already online 😄 (I was thinking, I don't want to boast that it was me who asked, but at the same time, I kinda do?)

So, it was all really sweet and I was surprised how many questions I was able to ask. Yay!!!

[bright epoch]

IM SO HAPPY IT WENT SO WELL

[granite carbon]

IT DID!!

[bright epoch]

AND SHE REMEMBERED YOOOOOUUUUU

[granite carbon]

That was the biggest flop of the evening!!!!!!

[tough trellis]

Lenka our VIP, haha :D

[bright epoch]

[granite carbon]

Hahahah it was everything and even more!! ❤️

Also @bright epoch Lindsey is not very sure if she will tour Europe next year. She said it's usually her agents who book the cities, she just tells them when she wants to tour. So I guess we'll wait and see?

[tough trellis]

Should I ask again today, hahahah? So shes doing a Lindsey Stirling Reloaded Tour? 😂

[granite carbon]

The more we ask, the more she sees that we want her here - YES PLEASE 😄

Duality tour, round two 😄

Or... just anything

[tough trellis]

Lindsey Stirling - Best Of

[granite carbon]

So, four hour concert? 😄

[tough trellis]

My heart wouldnt take that 😂😂😂😂😂😂

I dont have that enough stamina 😂😂😂😂

[granite carbon]

Gosh that's kinda true, mine either 😄

[bright epoch]

We shall see!!! But we can hope! And hope Lindsey bothers her agents enough 🤣🤣🤣

[granite carbon]

Also poor dancers, that would be exhausting 😄 only possible if Lindsey does an unplugged lol

[granite carbon]

YES!!!

[bright epoch]

Ask her again so I can come see a Lindsey show with you and Lenka next year LOL

[granite carbon]

Yeaa we already talked about it with @tough trellis in Prague, that you want to come over!! ❤️

[bright epoch]

YEEESSS

Let's all hope lots

[granite carbon]

Let's hope and manifest and send positive vibes to the universe!!

Or, whatever works

[tough trellis]

Omg YES

[bright epoch]

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSS

[true rose]

The Eras Tour Lindsey's Version 😂

[tough trellis]

Omg yes

[true rose]

I'd be down for that! 😂 Maybe she starts with the Duality era and then takes us back in time or something

[granite carbon]

What an idea!!! ❤️

[bright epoch]

I love it lol

[dense raptor]

I would trully be all for that

[true rose]

Ooo!! It's be a mashup of everything including the Christmas songs 🤣

[granite carbon]

OKAY! Shall we wait until the Halloween album too? 😄 Will Phelba become a Spooky Artemis?

[true rose]

Artemis 2.0 😂

[old thunder]

Aw I love that Luna comforts her before every show ❤️

[old thunder]

isnt it so sweet!?

[old thunder]

ooh well fingers crossed she comes back!

[dense raptor]

https://tenor.com/view/lindsey-stirling-lindsey-fingers-crossed-gif-17894225

[granite carbon]

The sweetest! she has so many fans now and yet she is able to remember so many of us!

[tough trellis]

Still thinking about the show.. ❤️

[granite carbon]

You made pictures of the exact part that got stuck in my head forEVER. The shadow work was so stunning!!!!

[tough trellis]

Great minds think alike! 😁

[granite carbon]

ALWAYS!

[tough trellis]

Got these two as well but I like the other more

[granite carbon]

Uffff ❤️ did you take a video and now you're making screenshots, or are those really pictures? if yes, gosh they're so focused and good

[tough trellis]

Pictures! :D

[granite carbon]

That's all so PRETTYYYY!!! Like, how did the stage crew manage to put all that fabric onto the stage to make it look so epic and theatrical ❤️ I was so amazed at how much they did in that dark

[tough trellis]

THIS!

[granite carbon]

https://tenor.com/view/lindsey-stirling-yelling-disgusted-smell-period-gif-15065243750658292026

That's evil twin Lindsey singing untamed 😄

[tough trellis]

Thats all I got. I was too busy dancing. Even tho this dude behind me was a complete……. DUH!

[granite carbon]

Gosh I was so mad when you wrote me that... like duh, bro, what is the issue with people having fun at a concert???

[tough trellis]

EXACTLY

And he had the audacity to tell me that Im at the wrong concert if I wanna stand up

I was like, Sir, you know where you are?

[granite carbon]

Sir, YOU need to stand up too because if you properly knew the main person on the stage, you would know that she loves it. Period!

[tough trellis]

Was even at the VIP
And then just sitting and doing nothing?!?

[granite carbon]

WHY

You met another hateful face, girl

[tough trellis]

Even before the show started he was telling me he is gonna call security on me, hahahaha

BEFORE THE SHOW

Because I was excited

[granite carbon]

"Yea please call Laci on me, I wanna know what she'd tell you"

That fella clearly had some issue in his own mind

And needed to ruin someone's evening as well

Gosh

Well! There is no such thing as things always going super-perfect. We had an epic evening in Prague, you had a blast in Budapest, Vienna was a flop, so now Lyon needs to do at least mildly well and you'll all good ❤️

[tough trellis]

I still had fun in Vienna. But it definitely made me sad 😅

[granite carbon]

Makes sense. That's those toxic people who don't know how to be decent!

Next time, make a hateful face too 😄

[tough trellis]

Nah, I don’t wanna engage too much with those kind of people

[granite carbon]

Best option. ❤️

[granite carbon]

1. I love how she changed the colour of the dress - I didn't see it coming!
2. I also love how she "dances with her hair" ❤️

[tough trellis]

So smooth!!!

[granite carbon]

YES!

[true rose]

Lighting 😍 that's how they got it to look so pretty!

[granite carbon]

I know, but they still had to hand a bunch of fabric out there!

[strong edge]

I don't take as many real pictures as I do videos. The camera I use can take excellent photos, but with the way Lindsey is always moving around... the videos are so much better for me. Most of the photos you see me share are screenshots from the videos I recorded.

Of course I understand that most people don't want to be constantly recording either so taking an occasional photo works for them. 👍

The image on the left is a real photo, the photo on the right is a video captured still.

[strong edge]

Audrix was a little easier to get captured standing in a one spot during the slower songs. 😄

Getting Sarah to hold still can be difficult sometimes! 😄

[strong edge]

Shoot dang... I hate when I render a video to fit here on Discord and it's like 502 MB file size... 2 MB over the Nitro limit! So need to lower the bitrate just a hair...

@granite carbon

[haughty totem]

Thank you for this @strong edge, I feel like I am the only one in this discord who didn't get to see this. Well this version of the performance.

[strong edge]

One thing about these new phone cameras... when you are watching videos that include zooms you can tell when the camera switches from the x3 zoom lens to the x5 zoom or even the x10. The quality of the lens gets significantly better. My older Galaxy S23 from last year didn't have quite as noticeable of a change.

These videos I shot during this tour was all by a Galaxy S24 Ultra phone.

Those two screen shots are one frame a part from each other.

[strong edge]

Catching the gaze of Lindsey while looking at her violin. Really like this photo.

[strong edge]

I want to be a Lindsey umbrella holder person! 😆

[strong edge]

Lindsey giving me a look.

[granite carbon]

Gosh this part got me in crumbles... @tough trellis kept asking me if I'm okay and was so kind to comfort me too 😭😭😭 🤍🤍🤍

We can say I got slightly shattered

[strong edge]

Slightly shattered so... cracked then. 😄

[granite carbon]

Will there be anything left, of me?

[strong edge]

We'll just dunk you into some liquid gold and you will be Kintsugi.

[old thunder]

"I'm a what??"
"A wizard! And a thumpin good one!"
Vernon reacts like he just shut down and rebooted

[strong edge]

How about using the other hand? 😄

[strong edge]

The Shatter Me "DLC" as heard in Omaha, Nebraska

[late solar]

It was a lot longer it was definitely Carol of the Bells

[strong edge]

Shatter Me Part 1 - Omaha, Nebraska

Shatter Me Part 2 - Omaha, Nebraska

[strong edge]

Wish I could bend like Taylor! That would pop my back! 😄

Caption op

[haughty totem]

Cirque du Lindsey!!!!

[strong edge]

How high can you go?

Something's got their attention! Ooooooo!

[strong edge]

[haughty totem]

Now you need this one in the other corner .

[strong edge]

Haha! That was what I was going to do first, but since that emoji has the shiny eyes like Lindsey has in that photo I went with that! 😄

But yeah I could have used both!

[haughty totem]

Great Stirlingite minds think alike!

[late solar]

The Armory

I think the Light Got a little bright here

Lindsey Did you Remember to put Sun Screen on

[old thunder]

No one can ever be happy while kicking someone…except Lindsey 😂 jk

[fiery quarry]

Haven't been on in a While but I wanted and needed to give a Shoutout to Laci. At the Phoenix Show I can't tell you how honored I was not only that you remembered me by name from the Year before When we briefly met for the Upside Challenge in Nampa, ID, but that you asked for my assistance with something. I felt like Mother Hen helping the ladies who were attending for the first time and had a blast Meeting them as well as other Fans that Night. Thank You for Just remembering. Shows me just how the Sincerity of not just @tired fiberbut her staff as Well to all of us... Can't wait till the Cruise to see you all again!!!

[tardy tundra]

Is Laci or any other crew going on the cruise with Lindsey?

[haughty totem]

Well Taylor, Ryan, and Drew are all doing classes on the cruise sooo it makes sense they will be there.

[strong edge]

^^ That was Laci

[fiery quarry]

I'm gonna stock up on Drammamine (Sea Sick Pills) just cuz I have atummy that gets a little weird sometimes... LOL

[haughty totem]

I'll be bringing my Bonine which is also for similar circumstances.

[late solar]

Well I got this picture of the bow Idk what happened here 🤔

[granite carbon]

"caption this" 😄 ❤️

Mostly wondering what Drew is thinking lol

Annelise: "I have a wedgie and can't use my hands!"

[late solar]

Annelise is like "oh I stubbed my Toe on the set in survive".

[late solar]

Lol

[old thunder]

It's like "Oh! We're bowing now!"

[late solar]

Lol

[white cove]

It kills me every time L.S hits this move in Shatter ME 😂😭

[strong edge]

Haha! The Move! 😄
Kansas City

Red Rocks

Omaha

[white cove]

Yeah, she doesn’t change up her moves once you’ve been doing it every night. It’s like you’re on auto pilot, but I did notice she changed some of her moves in her European leg of the Duality tour

[mossy sonnet]

for the sake of completeness Frankfurt, Germany

[mossy sonnet]

And Strasbourg, France

[strong edge]

Haha... I like this trend. Us finding that particular 2-3 seconds of the show in our archives. 😆

[mossy sonnet]

okay, one more. Rockhal (Esch-sur-alzette), Luxembourg 😅

[old thunder]

It is cool 🙂

I can't believe tomorrow is the last show for Duality!

[dense raptor]

I know! I feel like it went by so fast, but we still have the Snow Waltz tour coming up. Not to mention the Master of Tides Cruise over the summer!

[old thunder]

Oh yeah! Man the hype for Duality feels like it was all year - I can't complain!

[bright epoch]

It has been!!!

I mean. We've been waiting for the release, got songs, and got a tour!!! All in the same year!!!

The hype has been all year long!!!

[haughty totem]

Don't forget about the hype we all got for the Lindsey Stirling Master of Tides cruise, if not a bit of anxiety over costs and shceduling for said Lindsey Stirling Master of Tides cruise!!!

[old thunder]

The last time an album of hers probably got lots of love for most/the whole year must've been Shatter Me!

The hype for fun times with Lindsey lives on!

[bright epoch]

Lindsey has kept us going all year long

[strong edge]

It really has! It has kept me looking forward to things upcoming all year!

[haughty totem]

I am literally living just to see Lindsey the next time and the next time and the next time, etc..........!!!!!

[dense raptor]

My Life: Living to see Lindsey time and time again. Never gets old!

[old thunder]

I can't believe it's all over!

[mossy sonnet]

I will never forget the show (and all the adventures, people, ...)

[dense raptor]

The Duality tour may be over. I am sure there will be much more for us to see in our future. Even as another tour ends our memories last forever. There's no doubt about that!

[neat minnow]

i often think back to the concert every day, look at my photos and videos, i miss it all already...

[late solar]

I loved this tour it had so many memories that we all made ❤️ this tour really Sleighed

[mossy sonnet]

I had my annual appraisal at work yesterday and said that I learned a lot in October. I was then asked if other employees could do the same. Um... 😅

[strong edge]

That time during Les Fees that Lindsey looked at me.

[strong edge]

Sometimes watching back at Lindsey's performances I realize how amazing some of her moves are. She while in midair after a hop... swaps legs up to do a high kick... all this while playing violin.

[strong edge]

The foot wave

[haughty totem]

I love it everytime Lindsey notices us!!! It always makes me giddy and smile sooo much!!!!

[bright epoch]

I love when Lindsey points us out in the crowd for every reason. It's so fun

[strong edge]

Points at us with her magic wand.

[bright epoch]

YES

[strong edge]

Repoint after me

[late solar]

There were kids up front and I think she just made their day 🫂❤️

[old thunder]

I’m flying Jack!

[granite carbon]

She did that in Prague, pointed at @tough trellis who stood right next to me ❤️ Awesome gesture!! I was so happy for her (and still am)

[tough trellis]

Ahhhh I still think about it with a huge grin on my face ❤️

[granite carbon]

Understandable!! ❤️

[old thunder]

aw that’s really cute!

[late solar]

Lol love it

[old thunder]

Hahaha love that one!!

[strong edge]

Something I just noticed... it wasn't always the same dancer holding the umbrella for Lindsey.

[strong edge]

Luna Face

[sinful fiber]

Omggg I never saw this

[old thunder]

Cool, right?? 😄

[true rose]

I love how the light is catching the umbrella!

[strong edge]

Yeah! That is pretty neat!

[sly garnet]

Yes, I'm still not finished sharing all my pics/vids from the Asheville show... Too sick 😞

[strong edge]

I'm no where near finished myself. I need to get back to it someday! 🤣

[haughty totem]

You just haven't done it all.....YET!!!

[strong edge]

Nope! There's still 2023 videos I haven't posted.

[dense raptor]

https://tenor.com/view/lindsey-stirling-lindsey-stirling-pointing-point-taken-gif-17906427

[sly garnet]

Omg yes!! Yet!! Lol you're the best.

[haughty totem]

Thank you Carly!!!

[tardy tundra]

2,023 videos? That's a Lot of hard drive space.

[strong edge]

I suppose if they were all short videos they wouldn't necessarily take up a lot.

https://youtu.be/0QK0ycySNwc I was just typing out a document and Las Fees came on. It put me in a good mood. 😊

[old thunder]

I wonder if we'll hear this song more in reels and if there'll be a music video coming up in the future? 🙂

And see, when I hear this song, ever since the first time, this is specifically the place that comes to mind and at this time of day: Greece. And idk why my brain goes there

[haughty totem]

Also wasn't Lindsey's music video for her song "Forgotten City" kinda Greek/Roman themed?? It has been a couple of years since I've seen that music video sooo I might be wrong!

[old thunder]

That's right!! I just checked 🙂

[brave ermine]

Just watched that video for the first time. Such incredible scenery in that one!! Do you know where it was filmed?

[haughty totem]

I thought there was a behind the scenes video too that talked about where it was filmed at.

https://youtu.be/h0Q1_JCVS6A?si=GHHN9jj-XpGXKBgN

[brave ermine]

Well there you go, the island of Crete in Greece. Thanks!!

[haughty totem]

You're welcome!!!😊

[haughty totem]

I forgot how funny some of Lindsey's BTS(behind the scenes) videos were!!!

[old thunder]

And to think it's been 5 years since the last LindseyTime videos. I guess with her reels and tik toks, it's kind of survived, as well as stuff on tour. But I love that logo for the channel 🙂

[strong edge]

Speaking of 5 years... I think it is sometime this week that I discovered Lindsey 5 years ago.

[haughty totem]

Cool and awesome Gengar!!!

[strong edge]

I just remember it was during the depressing time of everything shutting down for Covid.

Lindsey helped me get through those times through her videos! 😄

[old thunder]

Oh yeah! The NASA video!!

Omg i just double checked being like, "Please tell me I said NASA and not Nazi" 😅

I had a Dory moment

[strong edge]

Yep! That's the one!

[small lynx]

I’ve looked through this thread and picked the following photos for a project I’m doing. I won’t be using the photos proper just removing the background and using a colour overlay instead. If you recognise your photos let me know and I’ll remove them I wouldn’t use the photos if you don’t want them used

[small lynx]

Sneak peak at my project

[bright epoch]

Just a little- thingy thing- you plan on crediting the people who took the photos right? Not just "oh I'm taking them." and not credit the actual photo taker?

[small lynx]

I’ll credit them!!

I should’ve kept a list of the names first 🤦🏻

[bright epoch]

Pretty sure the one you spoilered is mine HAHA! I just realized that 🤣

I've been awake 3 hours already

[small lynx]

Lol

[small lynx]

If anyone recognises the photos and knows who took them please tell me it would help a ton

[bright epoch]

Actually. 3/4 seem to be mine unless someone took the same photos lol

[small lynx]

Do you which one isn’t yours?

[bright epoch]

Here's the 3 that are mine (just as a little extra "proof")

[small lynx]

I didn’t actually use one of them because the quality meant that after removing the background and putting on the overlay it became nearly unrecognisable

[small lynx]

That’s incredible thank you so much!!

[bright epoch]

Youre very welcome ^-^

[small lynx]

That’s the ones I did use. Do you have an Instagram I could tag? I’ll probably add to my story or make a post about it once I’m finished because I’m quite proud of this work

[bright epoch]

justlivart42

There's my insta!^

[small lynx]

Ok thank you!!

[bright epoch]

Not a problem! I'm not gunna lie I teared up a little with happiness at fully realizing those were my photos haha 🤣

[small lynx]

Lol

[bright epoch]

Its been a rough morning so. This is making me smile a lot lol. I hope the project turns out just how you envision!!

[small lynx]

🤞🏼

[bright epoch]

I know art likes to do its own thing too so, I'm sure it's going to turn out wonderfully

[strong edge]

The first one is one I took. That's when she saw me peeking when our eyes were supposed to have been closed. 🤣

[bright epoch]

I was gunna say it looked like a photo you took haha

[small lynx]

Ah ok. I unfortunately couldn’t use that one because remove the background slightly downed the quality more because I was using the free version and the remove background tool on the software this is made on is weird for me to use and after the colour overlay it wasn’t very recognisable
