The lights go out and the crowd roars. For someone like the extremely talented pop star who just recently began to receive recognition in the states, Ellie Goulding has done a remarkable job of obtaining a fan base. This becomes evident when a guitarist appears on the stage of the Center Stage venue located in Atlanta. Next, a drummer appears, then a keyboardist. The crowd screams louder with each addition to the band. Time stops for what seems like a good minute or two but there is still no sign of the girl we’re all waiting to see.
