Whether you’re an avid music listener or a casual listener, concerts are something you should try to attend as often as possible.

Yes, it gets expensive. No, it isn’t tangible, but yes, concerts make some of the best memories. Whether you live 5 minutes, an hour, or 5 hours from a concert, it’s an experience that you will never forget, no matter how often you go to concerts.

1. The memories

I’ve made endless memories at concerts with old friends, made memories with new friends, and met people I will never forget at concerts. Personally, I’ve been to over 100 concerts and if I just look at the ticket from a particular show, I remember it vividly and it takes me right back to the night of the show.

2. Stress relief

I mean, come on. We’re in college, and stress is a part of our everyday lives. Concerts give us just one night where we don’t have to worry about anything but enjoying ourselves.

3. Health benefits

Happy people are generally healthier people. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never seen anyone who wasn’t happy at a concert. Plus, I read somewhere that people who go to concerts often are more likely to live longer, happier lives than those who don’t….

4. Adventure

Concerts give us the opportunity to travel to places we’ve never been before. You don’t have to go to your local concert, you can travel to New York if you want to. Plus, take a few of your friends along on your road trip and have the trip of a lifetime.

5. To have fun

I know we don’t have much shortage of fun in college, but concerts are the places I personally have the most fun. What’s better than dancing around with your friends while your favorite artist is on stage having just as much fun with you?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
