Bastille Concert

A review of the Bastille at Bradley University

Bastille Concert
iHeartRadio

On Tuesday of this week, I had the awesome opportunity to see Bastille in concert at the Renaissance Colosseum on Bradley University's campus. I bought the ticket last minute at the really great price of $20 because of my student discount, and I am so glad that I did! The doors opened at 7 and because I had a ticket in the pit section (standing section in front of the stage) I wanted to get there early to make sure I got a good spot. I ended up being only two rows from the barricade in front of the stage so I was really excited about that! I got a great view of the entire concert. I had such a great time and that is why I wanted to make sure that I wrote a review of the concert.

A band called Mondo Cozmo opened for Bastille. I will be honest and say that I had never heard of them before but, I thought they were really good. They played for a half hour and I instantly looked up some of the songs their songs because I really did like them! If you haven't heard any of Mondo Cozmo's music, look them up because they are great! But, the show really started when Bastille came on around 9:00. Dan Smith, the leader singer of Bastille has an incredible voice! He sounds the same live as he does on the radio. He also has some awesome dance moves and so does the rest of the band (haha). Bastille puts on a great show and they are so much fun to watch because you can tell that they are giving their all and that they love what they do. Also, during one of their songs, Dan Smith came into the audience and walked through the crowd of people in the pit. I always think it's cool when a band or someone in a band does that. It really adds to the experience and just makes it more fun to be there! For being a concert at a college campus, Bastille made it feel like you were seeing them in a big auditorium or something. They had really cool background videos playing while they sang and a lot of light action. All of these elements combined just made the concert so much fun! Everyone in the pit was dancing and when it was over, I know that everyone was sad to see it end!

I can honestly say that I am so glad that I went to this concert! I would totally see Bastille again because I love their music and they are guaranteed to put on a great show! I love that Bradley University puts on concerts for their students because it has really added to my college experience. So, if you are thinking of seeing Bastille in concert, GO! It is totally worth it and I can promise that you will have a great time! Below are some of the pictures that I took at the concert! Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
