Is there anything more enjoyable than getting to see an amazing concert?

Between the bright, flashing lights, the rush of adrenaline when the band finally appears on stage, and the feeling of togetherness evoked by being in a sea of people, there is really nothing comparable to seeing live music.

While ticket prices are increasingly pricey, and it can be a hassle to get to the event venue, find a parking spot, etc., I am a firm believer in trying to see AT LEAST one concert a year.

Why?

Because music has this incredible way of uniting people, and seeing it live somehow makes it seem all the more moving. When you see how much passion an artist brings to the stage and can read on their face how much the lyrics of the song mean to them...that is something that transcends beyond words.

Furthermore, one of my favorite parts of going to a concert has always been what the artist talks about in between songs, or while they are introducing them, because it really gives the listener an eye into the life of the person who is performing.

You can tell a lot about a performer based on what they talk about, what they choose to highlight about the making of the song, etc.

Those snippets of chat in between songs are sometimes more interesting to me than the song itself because in that time it seems like you are bonding with the person that is being brave enough to spill their heart out onto the stage in the form of harmonies, melodies, and notes.

The world without music would be so much duller, and live music is something that is in a realm of its own because of the fact that there's nothing quite like the knowledge that the moment cannot be replicated by simply replaying a song. Now, what are you waiting for? Go book those concert tickets!
