The 4 People You Meet At A Country Concert

The 4 People You Meet At A Country Concert

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!

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning.
