The gig experience

In my opinion, there is nothing better than going to a gig. It’s more than just going to see a band or artist you love, it’s an experience. From the very moment you’re sat at your computer trying to get tickets. The stress of being in the waiting room and then the pure delight when you get confirmation. It doesn’t compare to anything else. Then the ridiculously long countdown you have to endure until you can see them. The endless planning with your friends of where you’re going to stay, what you’re going to wear, what time you’re going to get there… Then the day comes and you just can’t wait, it feels like yesterday you got the tickets. The support act comes on but you just want to see the main act… But then you realise they are actually pretty good and follow them on Twitter. The countdown on the stage before they come on and then the massive erupt from the crowd when they step on. It’s like nothing else. You scream your heart out for the entire gig and stand there in amazement of their pure talent. You get such a buzz that when it’s over all you want to do is book tickets to their next tour. It’s crazy, but true.
