11 Amazing Music Venues Across America

If you're looking for the opportunity to see some live music this coming year, check out these amazing venues across America.


1. Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colo.

Just 10 miles outside of Denver is this unique rock structure that doubles as an amphitheater. This has been open ever since the 1940s and still continues to be one of America's most outstanding music venues.


2. Ravinia in Chicago.

This outdoor music venue sits in Chicago's Highland Park. It has a total of 36 acres of land and guests are even allowed to bring any type of food and drink in the venue, most audience members even set up picnics during concerts.


3. Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine, Calif.

Previously known as Irvine Meadows Amphitheater, just outside Laguna Beach, Calif. is yet another beautifully constructed outdoor venue.


4. Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tenn.

This unique auditorium placed right in the heart center of downtown Nashville is definitely one of the most unique auditoriums in America. The building itself has a lot of history behind it. Previously a church, the seating is actually church pews.


5. House of Blues in New Orleans, La.

This is one of the most well-known music venues in America. The intricate exterior and interior design makes this a beautiful venue which brings many legendary artists to the stage. If you have the chance to check out this House of Blues, or any of the others around the country, it would be an amazing experience.


6. Gorge Amphitheater in George, Wash.

This outdoor concert venue sits just off of the Columbia River and is considered to be one of the most scenic concert venues in the world.


7. Bowery Ballroom in New York City.

Out of all the venues in New York City, the Bowery Ballroom stands out amongst the rest because of the building's awesome balcony views and old history. The building itself was built in the 1920s and is still fully functional.


8. The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles.

Hidden inside Griffith Park, one of California's largest parks, is this venue also known as The Greek. This venue is built on an incline, which ensures that there is no bad seat in the house.


9. Nikon at Jones Beach Theatre in Wantagh, New York.

Even though this venue was originally made for musicals, this breathtaking view of the water makes for an amazing concert venue.



10. Hideout in Chicago.

There is no better name for this venue disguised as a house. You would never know this is a music venue until you walk inside this awesome space.


11. The Joint in Las Vegas, Nev.

Even though this is a large venue that sits about 4,000 people, the cool thing about The Joint is that the furthest distance between the stage and any seat is just 155 feet.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.

If you haven't read the first part of this, I would highly suggest to, specifically because the Public Service Announcement placed in the beginning of that article still applies. If you don't feel like reading part one, I will try to cover it quickly. Basically, long story short, I am a pretty boring person and lead a pretty ordinary life. Due to this, please do not expect for the things I consider ridiculous to be what others may deem it. I promise that each of these I have done with a complete sane, mildly bored, brain. With all of this being said, please enjoy the semi-absurd things I have been lead to do in the second semester of my freshman year at college.
