MUSIC MONDAYS #2

So, fitting in perfectly with the schedule, I attended a concert last night, so it only seem fitting I do my music monday on my concert experience!

The concert I went to was Twenty One Pilots, they're a band, well, more like a duet. Their music is VERY different. They're kind of new age, rape, electronic, alternative indie, punk I-dont-even-know. Just look them up, they're awesome and a category of their own.

Now, this is not my first concert to say the least, but MAN this one was different. I guess since it was an electric/dance/rap concert thing, it wasn't the atmosphere I was used to. But regardless of that, I really liked the crowd and the vibe they were giving off. If there's one thing I learned from this concert, it's that Twenty One Pilot fans are DIE HARD.

Now onto how the actual concert went. We were pretty far back at first, but as the excitement rose, people started pushing around (which was slightly irritating but whatever) and somehow we got pushed to almost the front, which I'm not complaining about. After the opening acts (I didn't find them very interesting, sorry) the guys FINALLY came on, and I swear the crowd packed together like a can of sardines. I was okay at this point, because I was expecting that. But when the guys came out with their starting song (Guns For Hands, my FAVORITE) everything went insane. There was a lot of jumping and pushing and overall craziness. I loved every second. I loved watching the stage through all the hands, I loved seeing people being lifted into the air and screaming out the words, I loved it all. Maybe not the sweaty backs and stuffy air, but hey we all have to make sacrifices.

I'll admit, I had to bounce out before the last couple songs, I thought I was going to vomit. (I hadn't eaten before when I REALLY should have) So we watched the encore from the back, and I'm a little upset we didn't stay in because the crowd held the guys up on these boards and they performed from the crowd and that was AWESOME to see. But regardless I loved watching it.

These guys are honestly full of so much talent, and their lyrics are revolutionary. They can speak to so many people on so many levels, and I love that. The lyrics are everything to me when it comes to music, and Twenty One Pilots don't even come close to falling short lyrics wise. I'm so happy I got the chance to see them, especially in a small intimate setting.

Everyone go check them out right now!
