I went to my first concert last night.
The band I went to see was I-Prevail. But of course when you go to a concert, you can't enjoy the band before you hear the openers. That was a bit of a shock to me considering that there were three openers before I-Prevail played anything. I honestly had never heard of any of the opening bands, but they weren't bad at all.
Three hours passed and finally it was time for the band I came to see. But they didn't sing when they got on stage(舞台). They first gave a speech to thank us for coming to watch their concert.
After the speech, the band finally began to play. Though that was my first concert, I had always talked to people who went to concerts a lot. They always seemed to mention that the group or singers doesn't sound the same as they do on recordings. I-Prevail did not fall into this stereotype(陈规). The band sounded exactly like they do on their albums. That just shows this band was known for how good they are but not just how good they can make themselves sound on an album.
The concert was amazing and the night was great, but I honestly feel that a concert is 10 times better if you go with people you know and who just want to have a good time. The people I attended the concert with were amazing people and just had such a love for music, which made everything so much better. A concert is one thing, but having friends that enjoy music as much as you do is something you can't miss. Last night was so much better just because I attended my first concert with some great friends.
