that’s quite an adventure 🤣. I’ve been to a lot of concerts but I’ve never take. An airplane just to fly back after an all nighter 🤣
I did drive 3 hours to Woodstock New York to see a band called 3 right after I got my drivers license though and the singer was so moved he took me for coffee.
I mostly go to small shows with 30-200 people in the crowd. I missed a chance to see Coldplay like that, right when their first album came out and they were still pretty unknown in the US… 😭
I haven’t listened to them in years but since you are a fan now, I have to recommend “Shiver” cause that was my favorite song back in the day!
Glad you had fun, I can’t imagine a stadium show now, they’ve changed so much! The light up wrist bands, I heard some of my students talk about things like those.
Omg thank you so much for reading this entire longggg post and reblogging it! I went a little overboard with the word count on this one.
This was by far the craziest and most spontaneous (not to mention expensive) thing I've done. But still completely worth it.
It would have been so incredibly cool if you had gotten to see Coldplay back in the day! Imagine talking to the band personally! I would freak.
It's so amazing that you got to go on a coffee with the singer you went to watch! And yes, there's something really special about these intimate shows with a small crowd.
Thank you for the song recommendation! I'll be listening to it right now❤️
that’s the cool part about listening to independent music, it’s a lot easier to meet your favorites!
I went to see my favorite bands guitarist do a DJ set and we were able to talk to him for 15 minutes
Some of my favorite musicians are friends, that’s when it gets really weird cause they are normal people to you but their music makes you feel like an ultra fan, but you don’t wanna be annoying so you keep your obsession to yourself and just tell them you love it 🙃
I don’t know much Indian music but I should look for some small amazing artists you can go meet 🤣
I love to dig!
Ah that's amazing and smart! I'm jealous that you're FRIENDS with your favourite musicians 🥹
