8 Thoughts You Have When You're At A Concert

Yes, the pushing is totally worth the hassle.

8 Thoughts You Have When You're At A Concert

If you love music as much as I do, concerts are probably one of your favorite places to be. They're always so full of energy- everyone is dancing, singing and trying to get a great picture of the band's best set. But sometimes, concerts can be a bit of a hassle. There's constant pushing from the people around you who try to get as close to the stage as they can, in hopes of getting a glimpse of the people on stage (or, they're just trying to escape the sea of iPhones blocking their view). Although everyone has different tastes in music, everyone, regardless of their favorite genre, has these thoughts at a concert.

1. When are they coming out?

Between waiting in line for hours and the opening act that never seems to end, it can feel like the people you actually want to see will never come out.

2. My legs hurt.

Concerts require a lot of standing (and jumping if you can't really see).

3. I didn't know they let giraffes in here!

There's nothing worse than being stuck behind a giant when you're trying to see what's going on onstage. The only real solution is to climb on top of them and get the best view, obviously.

4. Do you really need to record the whole thing?

No matter where you go, there will always be people in the crowd who refuse to put their phone away. So, instead of seeing the lead singer do that really cool move live, you get to watch it on someone else's Snapchat story (even though you're actually at the concert).

5. I'll probably cry and scream if they play my favorite song.

Hearing your favorite song live is one of the best concert experiences you could have. Don't worry, I won't judge you if you burst into hysterics.

6. If I just push these people in front of me, I can totally get in the front.


Don't lie, you know you've done it. There's no shame in a little push to get closer to the stage. Just remember, it's about the shoulders.

7. Why is this person so close to me?

Concerts are generally too close for comfort. But, when there's someone constantly on top of you, it's impossible to not get annoyed.

8. I never want to leave.

Even though it can be annoying to deal with some people at concerts, they are completely worth it. Seeing a band or an artist you love play live is an incredible experience, one that you'll never want to end.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
