The 4 People You Meet At A Country Concert

The 4 People You Meet At A Country Concert
mediacmgdigital.com

I have been to my fair share of country concerts over the years, so I’ve come to know the crowd pretty well. Whether it’s a huge stadium or a small bar, I can promise you that you will run into these people.

1. The Fangirl

I am this person at 90 percent of the concerts I go to. The fangirl knows every song put out by the artist, including their obscure Christmas album. She is probably gushing about how cute the singer is and how he totally made eye contact with her. They can be spotted wearing the headliners apparel and holding up signs along the lines of, “I’ll Shake For You Luke Bryan,” and “I’ll Come To Your House Party Sam Hunt." Avoid at all cost when a romantic ballad comes on because there’s a 100 percent chance she will start balling.

2. The Photographer

This person wants to remember every detail of the night, and what better way to do that, than with pictures. From the countless Snapchat videos to the “candids” in their cowboy boots, you either love them or hate them. My advice to them, live in the moment. As much as I love to look back on Zac Brown Band singing “Chicken Fried,” don’t let that hinder your experience. Limit your video taking to four songs, and I promise you will have a much better time.

3. The One Who Hates Country Music

Whether his girlfriend dragged them there or he got roped into going with friends, he is miserable. He is on his phone for 75 percent of the concert and the other 25 percent of the time is rolling his eyes, asking why every song is about moonshine. He can easily be spotted, because he’s the only one not going insane when Jason Aldean plays the opening chords to, “She’s Country." My advice to him, give it a chance. I know it’s not Fetty Wap, but I have converted so many friends who hated country music, to die hard fans.

4. The Drunk

I can’t talk about country concerts until I talk about the drunk. I admit it, a good amount of country songs are about alcohol, specifically beer. The drunk pregamed, tailgated, and shotgunned three bud lights all before the opening act has finished their set. They can be spotted wearing America themed clothing head to toe and attempting to line dance like there's no tomorrow. My advice to them, pace yourself. I know it’s awesome to be singing along to “Red Solo Cup” as you're drinking from a red solo cup, but concert’s are expensive. Chances are, you spent at least 100 bucks on your ticket, so wouldn’t you want to remember the experience?

In my opinion, you haven’t lived yet until you’ve gone to a country concert. So kick on your cowboy boots, pop open a Budweiser and let your inner redneck shine through!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
