Before quarantine started, I had been to 43 concerts. Yep, you saw that right, 43.
Two weeks ago, I was supposed to see a band with my best friend. The band is called The Driver Era. They aren't super popular, but some of you may know the lead singer. It's Ross Lynch, yeah THE Austin Moon from Disney Channel. This concert was a present for my best friend and we had our tickets for months. I even surprised her with meet and greet tickets. But now we're waiting for them to announce when the concert is rescheduled.
Whenever I tell anyone that I've been to 43 concerts, the first thing they ask is, "What's been your favorite one?" To be honest, I really don't know. But here are some of my favorite memories.
First, a band called Chase Atlantic, me and my best friend saw them in July of 2019. They have been one of our favorite bands for years now, and we were counting down the days. We had meet and greet VIP tickets and the whole experience was perfect. We got to give them hugs and take pictures, they said that we looked amazing and our outfits and makeup were how they had picture the physical embodiment of their newest album. Then, we were in the second row for the concert. Let me tell you, they know how to put on a show, I get chills every time I think about it.
Another one of my favorite memories was my third time seeing 5 Seconds of Summer. One of my good friends gave me her extra ticket and we had box seats, which were directly behind the pit, and a little bit elevated. We were front and center and could practically make eye direct eye contact with Luke Hemmings. We danced and sang our hearts out that night and I can only pray that I'll get to see them in concert again in September.
I think quarantine is officially coming to an end for me, so I'm hoping that large group events can start again soon! Let's hope that we can all jump around scream singing together again soon!
