So tonight a few friends and I are going to a Hank Jr. concert here in SC. Needless to say a country music geek like myself is pretty pumped. It got me thinking of the past country concerts I've gone to, and the many things they all seem to have in common. So here's a list of the ____ stages you go through when you go to a country music concert.
1. You find out that your favorite country artist/band is coming to a venue near you!
Of course you'll text your best friends letting them all know.
2. Your friends will "politely decline" your invite to a country concert...
"who likes country music anyway...?"
3. You'll buy the tickets anyway, and start thinking about what to wear.
You want to look cute and country, like Miranda Lambert.
4. You'll spend plenty of time on pinterest looking at artsy pictures of other girls at country concerts trying to pick out which look you want to go for.
5. As the day of the concert gets closer you'll plan rides, make pre and post concert plans, and get yourself hyped upppppp.
6. The day of the concert is here, you walk into the venue's pre-concert area (usually a parking lot), and are stunned by the amount of red, white, and blue clad, tattoo sporting, flip cup playing Americans there are.
Wow...
7. You become one of these lovely people...
I mean honestly it was inevitable. Come on.
8. The last song is playing, the stars are out, you're surrounded by great friends, and it becomes even clearer that country music really is the best genre of them all.
