My summer has consisted of working, shopping and hanging out with my friends. While doing all of my usual summer activities was entertaining, nothing beat the day that I went to see G-Eazy and Logic at the Endless Summer Tour.
I had recently gained interest in rap and hip hop, and G-Eazy quickly caught my eye as an entertainer.
I fell in love with his song "Me, Myself, and I" featuring the up-and-coming pop singer Bebe Rehxa. Since I became so attached to this song, I decided to listen to the other songs on his new album "When It's Dark Out" as well as his other album "These Things Happen." Listening to his music daily, I got hooked and was determined to see this man in concert.
I had asked one of my close friends to join me on this adventure to the concert that was located in New Jersey. We traveled 2 1/2 hours from Scranton to Holmdel just to see my favorite rapper.
We decided to splurge and upgrade to meet and greet tickets so that we could spend a few precious moments with G-Eazy. My friend and I were so excited that we didn't know what to expect when we met him in person.
When we arrived at the venue, we stood in line with other fans who had meet and greets and made casual small talk. As we moved into the line and waited for G-Eazy to arrive, we saw him and his body guards walk into the venue where the meet and greet would begin. I was so excited that I yelled out, "Hi Gerald!" and he responded "Hello Ladies," with a big smile and a subtle wave. Just from that little encounter, my friend and I were awestruck. I was so excited when I finally was next in line to meet him. I was so nervous that I would say something stupid and embarrass myself.
I walked into the meet and greet venue and was starstruck. He was just as handsome in person as he is in his photos and music videos. He stood at a tall 6-foot-5 and had his black hair slicked back in his signature style. He gave me a big hug as I approached him and asked me what my name was. I told him, and he responded that I had a beautiful name and thanked me for all of the love and support. After about 5 minutes of talking, I finally got my picture with him and I swear that was the happiest moment I had ever experienced in all of my life.
After our meet and greet, my friend and I went to our seats, which were located in the second row of the venue. While my friend and I didn't know much about Logic and his music, we were so excited and open to experience his style and stage presence.
I admired Logic because he was so down to earth, and told his fans much about his life before he was famous. His story and music resinated with me so much that he is currently one of my favorite artists.
G-Eazy was the final act of "The Endless Summer Tour." Every second was worth the wait and I had never experienced such an amazing time in my entire life. G-Eazy was so interactive with the crowd and kept the party atmosphere going during the whole entire show.
I can gladly say that Logic and G-Eazy put on one of the most amazing concerts that I have ever seen. I wish that I could relive every second of that day. My friend and I vow to go to any Logic or G-Eazy concerts that come our way again and hopefully we will get to hear new music from them, too.
2016 is definitely the year for both G-Eazy and Logic.
