Then that second when the singer points the microphone to
the crowd and every single person in that venue sings their heart out and this
is when the crowd truly has become one. Whether it is your first time seeing
this band/ artist or your tenth time you can’t help but get chills and freak
out uncontrollably. Everyone is so used to seeing their pictures and watching
their videos online but that moment when you’re actually standing before them
is priceless. Knowing you could look forward to this at the end of the night makes
everything terrible that has happened, the stress of school and life seem worth
it.
This is what I live for and though I wish I could experience
this every day I have come to the realization that if that were to happen I probably
wouldn’t be able to appreciate it as much as I do now. To you this is only an ordinary band, a crappy bar or venue, the set list is a simple piece of paper and a wasted night listening to noise but to us this is so much more. It's love, the soundtrack to our lives and what keeps our heart beating; it's home. Home is that one place where we can leave reality at the door and get lost within.
