I’ve been to show after show, from rap concerts to country concerts, from indie rock to folk, I love it all. I am my happiest at a live performance, there’s something therapeutic about seeing one of your favorite performers live, in a whole room of other people who love that performer as much as you. I’ve seen Demi Lovato a few times in concert, 3 to be exact. The first time I saw her was when she was on tour with The Jonas Brothers, I liked her but didn't pay much attention because I was way too excited to see Joe, Nick, and Kevin do their thing. The first time I truly appreciated Demi Lovato was when she admitted herself into rehab, I was shocked and surprised, but most of all I was impressed. From that moment on I have looked up to Demi as a role model. I know it sounds dumb coming from a twenty year old girl, but I don't care if she’s an ex-Disney performer, she fricken rocks. I relate to her music more than any other kind, I feel less alone because of her. She makes going through hell and back look graceful, and I have hope because of her. This video is from 2014 when I saw Demi Lovato in the Quad Cities. We had amazing seats and it was such a fun concert. It was the first semester of my college career and I was having a hard time adjusting, but this concert helped so much. It kept me going when I wanted to give up, and I’m so happy I had the opportunity to see her again. Once again, I know I’m lame, but music is my saving grace, and Demi Lovato is a huge part of that.
