The day before the Shawn Mendes concert, I went to my friend, Cacey’s house to spend the night because we were going to leave early the next morning for the concert. We were going to celebrate the wondrous occasion of her birthday. The night before, Cacey happily opened her presents, and then we went to go to bed early so we wouldn't be drowsy the next morning. The next morning, we woke up and started getting ready for our long car ride. It wasn’t that long, though, just two hours. We got in the car around 10;:00, and left to go to the concert. During the car ride, we listened to the entire Shawn Mendes CD 2 times. We finally arrived after two hours, and we were there! Once we got there, we checked into our hotel, and waited in the hotel lobby a little bit before we left to go to the Hershey stadium. By the time we got to the stadium, we were really hungry, so we got delicious pizza, and thirst quenching lemonade. As soon as we finished, we left to go to the concert. Cacey, Morgan, Cacey’s mom, and I entered a …show more content…
courtyard to the side of the arena, and got water to take in. We also got Shawn Mendes T-Shirts. The line to get in that we ahd to wait in was so long and took forever to get in. While we were in the line, a chocolate bar came out with a security guard, and said that they were either Shawn Mendes or Jack Gilinsky. We were so excited and got in line to take a picture with them. We took the picture after waiting in line for what seemed like years, and got back in line. By the time we got back in line, the line to get in had already started moving even faster, and before we knew it, we were inside the stadium. But then we encountered another problem. We realized that it was only 1:00 and the concert did not start until 3:00! We had to occupy ourselves for the time being and until 3:00. We ended up just walking around for awhile and looking at and admiring the stage. Additionally, there was a big sign that had the # SOTS, which stood for the Show of the Summer (that is what the concert was called). After stalling for 2 hours, the concert started.
It started off with Sabrina Carpenter, the girl plays Maya on “Girl Meets World”. Shortly after Sabrina’s performance, Jacob Whitesides took the stage. He sung a few songs and soon exited the stage as well. Jack and Jack came up, and then sing a few songs of theirs, in addition to a never before heard song that they performed. R5 appeared soon after, and played several songs, some heavy-metal. It was really awesome. Then it was Fifth Harmony. But before they got on stage, they made a grand entrance on the North side of the stadium where people entered. I was in the front of everyone, making a pathway for them. Meanwhile, security was holding people off. I was so close to them, I could have literally touched them. Except for the fact that there was a security guard standing right in front of me and surrounding Fifth Harmony. They got on stage, and sang and danced for an hour straight. It was pretty
impressive. Then it was time for Shawn Mendes to take the stage! A video started playing right before he came out and I was getting weak in the knees. He was good on the video and I thought that when he came out, I would faint and have to go to the hospital, but luckily, I did not. He finally came out and I fell, but my friends, Cacey and Morgan caught me. I started bawling and could not stop for the whole hour and a half that he was on stage. It got so bad that I was getting dizzy and had to sit down. Some random people around me even asked if I was okay, and if I needed help. I told them no and I was just bawling over how amazing Shawn Mendes. The concert went by too fast, and then he was gone. I finally stopped crying and arrived back to my own sanity. My head hurt really bad, though, which was because I lost most of the water in my body from crying and was now dehydrated. But I had a great time and was upset that it ended. We took a bus back to the Hershey Lodge and went to bed in our hotel room. The next morning, we all showered, then went downstairs to get breakfast in the hotel. After our delicious meal, we went to Hershey Park for the whole day, and had so much fun. I hope to go back to a Shawn Mendes concert again soon!
opening band appeared. At this time, there were not very many people in the audience.
It took a while to get in because the line was extremely long but the fans screaming and yelling. The music was playing while the players were warming up. They
I was in the car with my best friend Hannah with her sitting passenger and I was in the driver’s seat. We were talking and laughing, having a great time without a care in the world. My stereo was on and playing was my favorite CD: Blurryface by Twenty One Pilots. We were on our way to a friend’s house and couldn’t wait to get there. The traffic started to slow us down but we didn’t let that damper our mood.
During the concert the pianist, drummer and saxophonist did a great job, making the rhythm unforgettable. One of the songs that was performed was "Wrapped around your fingers" it contained a romantic melody. While the piano and saxophone then alternated the rhythm, as the passion of the song was motivating everyone to fall into the rhythm of it. The melody which was steady seemed to get faster like a heartbeat by the climax of the song. The sounds were increasingly getting louder until all instruments met at the top with a ban...
When we started walking towards the huge Stadium (that could hold 66,000 thousand fans!) I was really excited to go into the Stadium, we walked through a glass Walkway that you could see all of the fans that were at the game. Then we were right into the Stadium. The Stadium was huge it was made out of glass that had to be pretty strong because there weren’t any poles in some places and in one spot the glass would open so then it looked like a huge glass door which it pretty much was. Right when we walked in we saw a huge
The day started off pretty normal, well, besides the fact that we had all stayed in a house with nothing but an old Nintendo system and a couple of lawn chairs. We went to breakfast at Denny's, after which we made our way to Denver, the site of the day's big event. On our way to my cousin's apartment, we drove by the multi million-dollar complex. It had a huge billboard that said "Summer Sanitarium." To my surprise, I kind of got a nervous feeling. Why? I do not know. We proceeded to my cousin's apartment where the entire group conglomerated in preparation of the concert. We had a large group of people that consisted of Carter, Josh, Seth, Sam and his two brothers, Tim, Kim, Eric, my brother me and. While waiting for the right time to arrive at the event, we had the radio turned to a station that was playing Metallica in honor of their presence in Denver.
1 Me and my best friend Annie really wanted to go to the music festival Lollapalooza. In the summer of 2016 we saved money and convinced her dad to take us to Chicago. We could only pick one day, Annie and I picked Thursday because it was the day that had our favorite singers. Lana Del Rey, G Eazy, J Cole, The 1975, City and Color where just a few that came that Thursday.
As I entered the building, I observed everything that was going on around me. The show started at approximately 8 p.m., and ended at around midnight which included a 15 minute intermission. There were two acts
My hair was in it 's usual mane of curls since Jennifer was too lazy to deal with it, my nails were painted black and my eyes were decorated with eyeliner, mascara, and a light blue eye shadow. My outfit was pretty simple. I had chosen to wear a dark blue halter top with my favorite pair of ripped black skinny jeans, and my black converse. When we finished getting dressed, I wrote a note to my mother, telling her I was going to be out, and got into Jenn 's car. The drive to my other best friend, Dylan 's house wasnt that long. Only about ten minutes. The drive to his house was comfotably silent. The kind of comfortable silence that surrounds you when you are around someone you love.
It was February 8th and all me and my best friend Emalie could do was think about the concert. We were finally able to see and listen to two of our favorite people. For me i was also excited to see Jon Bellion who was one of the opening shows , but so was Judah and the Lion. The concert was being held at the taco bell arena in Boise. Throughout the day i listened to Twenty One Pilots , and even made a little poster saying “Stay Alive” which is kinda like the motto of the band. And wearing any band merch or signature things of the band (Like red beanies, or smearing black chalk on your hands). As soon as i got home i got ready, and waited for Emalie to come pick me up.By the time she had gotten there we were already on our way , we listened
After 15 minutes people were starting to get frustrated because nothing was happening. It is a good thing. Suddenly there was activity onstage and the lights dimmed. the first support band, Slam Cartel, came on. The mosh pit went wild.
Excited, we rushed our way into the mosh pit, (in my mind the only place to
My family, Mackenzie, and I were on our way to Laramie to watch the basketball games and the football games going on that weekend. We were almost to Laramie when Carly, Mackenzie’s older sister, called her. I could hear the excitement in Mackenzies voice practically the whole time they were talking. Mackenzie finally turned to me and exclaimed that Carly had gotten us tickets to the Jason Derulo concert the next night. When we arrived in the Arts and Science building, where it was being held, we took our seats in excitement. We kept joking about what would happen if we were to actually meet Jason Derulo. Mackenzie and I kept discussing how amazing it would be as Carly went to the bathroom. About 10 minutes after she got back, Mackenzie and I decided that we should go to the bathroom as well before the show started. When we walked out the doors we asked a guy working there where the bathroom was, he pointed to the left and said it was just down the stairs. When we got to the bottom we noticed a big long hallway to ...
When the final song was over and Jars of Clay was off the stage, the lights abruptly came on. Everyone started to leave the theatre. I still wanted to hear more of their music, but just as they had come out they then left in the same way. My adrenaline was still on a high point even as we got to our vehicles.
There is an event that I just can describe as one of the most unique and memorable in my life: attending my first concert. After years of listening to Ron Pope’s music, watching his YouTube channel, and following all of his social media accounts, the satisfaction of seeing someone whose music has been the soundtrack to my life for so long was unreal. There were moments that I had to internally remind myself that this is, in fact, happening in real life. Being a dedicated (some may say eccentrically so) fan is tough work – and I was rewarded with two hours of pure magic for one night. Attending my first concert was a unique event that I will always remember fondly because of the atmosphere, the amazing performance and the sense of connection
