We enter the arena and we try to have a good place in the pit. As we arrived early enough, we find ourselves in the middle of the pit. We see the scene very clearly.
We are satisfied.
Then, we learn that the concert will start 30 minutes late.
Well, two hours standing, 30 minutes more is not that much. Anyway, we’re so excited about the start of the show that we can’t stand still.
The giant screens light up and the boys MVs are broadcast there to cheer us during the time we wait.
Quickly, as only the French audience knows how to do, thousand voices begin to rise in Bercy which is becoming more and more filled.
We give voice, we call them, we sing in full lungs on the music we know by heart.
Bercy swells with a joy that cannot be contained. It vibrates everywhere.
The concert is sold out and it's gradually that the 20,000 people take their places in the Arena and join their voices with those of others.
The atmosphere is electric. We are trembling, our lightinys in the hand.
The pit is the lung of a concert and it’s getting bigger and bigger.
20,000 voices become one. This is an incredible time when the Atinys are all one: the ninth member of Ateez.
With each movement of the gigantic curtain stretched on both sides of the stage, with each drop of light, the clamor of the Atinys rises, rumbles and we clap feet, hands.
Fever, that feverish expectation that warms us up for what's about to happen.
We count the minutes, we look around, we look at the scene.
9:00 PM, the lights go out and we’re in the dark.
The first VCR is launched on both screens and on the curtain. The crowd starts screaming every time one of the members appear on the film.
For my part, I have tears of happiness in my eyes: they are there, 30 meters away from me, they are really here.
The VCR ends on all members.
The curtain gets red and the silhouette of the boys, behind the curtain, appears.
Yes, they are here.
My heart is swelling, like those of all the Atinys with me.
This red curtain alternates with the end of the VCR.
Explosion of golden confetti....
And the curtain finally falls and they appear in front of our amazed eyes.
The room is plunged in the dark and in the light of the blue spots, the group sets up.
The show finally begins, after 7 months of waiting and one postponed.
