Concerts

You've got to love them.

You know why?

Because you're so packed in tightly that you're un-intentionality having sex with everyone around you and it's perfectly fine.I think the most interesting about concerts is that in real life no one would want someone that close to them, and all up on their personal space. But once you add a band, lights, big security guys, and a gate everyone is packing in as close as possible.

LOVE CONCERTS!

Especially Friday night's concert! Because who cares that the bands actually don't sound that good, and you can't understand a single thing they say because you go for the experience of sweaty bodies and shoving elbows. WHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I know that sounded really sarcastic, but it wasn't I actually meant it. I love concerts. I use to go to them all the time. Unfortunately I am now a broke college student who is way to busy and doesn't have the time or the money to go to them anymore. ((insert sad face here))

I inserted a sad face for you. 

Friday night I went to see Pierce the Veil, We came as Romans, Bring Me The Horizon, and A Day To Remember and it was EPIC!!!!! Oh and it was also held at epic entertainment how ironic. So even if you don't care I'm going to give you a quick synopsis of that night.

First I got lost in Minneapolis, which is not a shock at all. Seeing that I've never driven in Minneapolis by myself. It was quite terrifying but exciting at the same time. All the one way streets were confusing me. So I got onto this really sketchy looking parking ramp and parked there making sure to use the stairs to get to ground level, because taking the elevator is stupid you have nowhere to run if you need to. So then I get outside and I'm lost, I have no idea where 5th street is. I see that I'm on the corner of forth and I do an ennie meanie minnie moe thing and decide to take a left and hope that that's fifth street. So while I'm walking by myself obviously having no idea where I'm going I see this group of teenagers and I go up to them and ask if they know where 5th street is. Turns out they were going to the concert also so I just tagged along and we found the venue. So then we get in this line to find out that the line is 18+ and you need an ID. Wellllllll obviously I'm not 18 and even if I was I didn't have my ID on me ((I left it in the car)). Thankfully the people I was with didn't have their ID so we walked to the other end where the line was for people who are under 18 or just don't have their ID and you round the corner and your jaw just drops. The line stretches all the way around the block and it's about eight people wide. And while walking along I hear someone say my name and I see two friends from my school towards the front of the line, so we just jump in. We still had to wait for about an hour till we got in. Once we got in I found my way to the front. It's kinda shocking actually. I thought it'd take me awhile but nope, during the first band I found my way to the front and stayed in the front for the whole concert. I was around the coolest people also. This is what I love about concerts either you meet the coolest people or the bitchiest people ever. Thankfully this time I had awesome people who talked to me. What's also awesome about concerts is you get to know a lot about the people around you in four hours because you have no where else to go and they're constantly pushed up right besides you.

The bands were great. Loved them all, of course I loved A Day To Remember the best because they're the main reason why I went to the concert. They had confetti, and threw toilet paper and beach balls, and my favorite was when the lead singer Jeremy got into this human sized hamster ball that was filled with air and ran over the crowd in it. It was pretty awesome. I have pictures but unfortunately I left my camera chord at school so I'll have to load them after break.

On the note of people being on top of the crowd there was a lot of crowd surfing. I've crowd surfed five times in my life time and I  LOVE it. The feeling is absolutely amazing but I'm always scared they're gonna drop me. Thankfully I'm a girl, and girls normally don't get dropped, the guys normally get dropped. ((It's an observation I've noticed when I go to concerts.)) I would have crowd surfed but I didn't think it was worth losing my spot in the front and I'm glad I didn't because I had the best view of the bands and it was AWESOME.

So there is a short account of my night. The only two events I'm leaving out is I ran into a girl I worked with randomly which is awesome. ((Love her)) Oh and I saw a cat fight! It was pretty hilarious. In the front they had the normal bear cage and then moveable railings to keep people out and the next thing I know is to my right this girl gets shoved out of the crowd and through the gap between the cage and the railing and the security guard in the front makes her walk to the side to get out of the gap and she goes around to literally claw at the girl who had pushed her out and the security guard has to break up this fight. Then the girl's friend ((the one who had gotten pushed out)) got pushed out also. It was an altercation that lasted maybe a minute not even and it was so funny to watch. I know I explained that horribly, but it's a you had to be there thing. 

So I think I got everything covered...
