Going to concerts is absolutely my favorite pastime. Sadly, I am a college student and out of money now and cannot attend any for a while. Every time I go to a concert I go through crazy emotions and every experience and performance is different, but I always feel the same excitement and love for the time I spend jamming with my favorite artists and best friends.

1. The Anticipation

On they way to the concert when you're so hyped you can't contain yourself.

2. Disbelief That You're About To See Them

Approaching the venue and wondering if you're living in a dream.

3. Treasuring Your Ticket

Worrying about making sure the ticket is in your pocket, and contemplating framing it for later.

4. LINES

Lines to get in! Lines to get food! Lines to get wristbands! Lines to go to the bathroom!

5. Waiting For Them To Come Out

Finding your seat/place in the pit and having zero patience for any delays.

6. The Hype When The Lights First Go Up

Going bananas when things are about to get started, knowing your dreams are about to come true.

7. Losing It When You First Hear Them

OMG THEY'RE REAL AND RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!

8. Dancing Like There's No Tomorrow

Bustin' moves with tons of people who are just as excited as you are to be there.

9. Planning A Future Life With Them

Mentally planning your future friendships/vacations/marriage/children with the artist.

10. When You Weren't Ready For An Encore

Getting hit with an unexpected encore when you had already accepted that the show was over.

11. Sad That It's Over, Blessed To Have Been There

Going into a state of real life summertime sadness when the show is over, but in disbelief in the beauty you just witnessed.

Getting home and being so hungry and eating anything and everything you can get your hands on.

3. Passing Out

After a long and eventful day, you fall asleep exhausted but totally content.
