SCREAMING THE LYRICS, And 4 More Reasons Why You Should Go To A Concert
Katrina Rector

My first music group I was obsessed with was the Jonas Brothers, back when I was in middle school. Unfortunately, I was not able to see them. Now that I am twenty-one, I have been to over 20 concerts. Here are the main reasons that I decide to continue to go to concerts!

1. The atmosphere!

Giphy

Concerts might get a bad reputation for "crazy" fan girls, but in the end they are just being supportive. Screaming the lyrics back to your favorite artists is one of the best feelings ever especially when you are surrounded by other people. You can expect to run into amazing venue staff that are willing to help you get to your seats and they are just as excited for the event as you!

2. Live music!

Giphy

Your favorite artist might sound great on an album, but how do they sound live? Concerts are a great way to listen to your favorite artist perform live and in person. There is nothing better than that adrenaline rush you get when your favorite artist's opening starts!

3. Meeting new people!

Giphy

Sure you can meet new people eveywhere you go, but there is nothing better than fangirling (or fanboying) about your favorite artist with someone else. Friends don't like your favorite artist? Have no fear, there are lots of people that you can meet at a concert that like the same artist as you. They might even become your new best friend, so don't be afraid to introduce yourself!

4. New music! 

Giphy

Every tour you go to has openers that you might not have heard of but that's okay! Openers are just as important as the headlining artist! The next time you go to a concert, go to the concert for the opener. You can be exposed to amazing new music and they just might end up being your new favorite artist!

5. You can be as loud and obnoxious as you want!

Giphy

Anywhere else you go in public, whether it is work or school being loud and obnoxious is frowned upon. However, at concerts you can be as loud as you want. Scream the lyrics to your favorite song! Dance as weird or as crazy as you'd like! No one is here to judge as everyone gets excited about their favorite artists, some more than others but that is ok!

Once the encore is over, you might feel like you have lost a part of yourself, but it is all worth it in the end. Concerts are my happy place and I know many people feel the same way. Next time you want to go to a concert, go to it! Life is too short to have regrets, especially when not all artist are around forever. Save your money and go to a concert, I promise you will not regret it!

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
