Maybe I'm getting old, but somehow I am losing touch on how and why youngsters love certain things. Attending concerts for example. While it is good fun and all, but there are really a lot of things that can ruin your enjoyment. This is the place where people:
*Shove at each other. I don't get it. Why the hell people do that? This leads to some people:
*Squeeze their way in front. Sorry, it sucks to be short. But if you want to be front and centre, arrive to the venue EARLY, like an hour early (The place fills up like mad once the gates are open).
*Smoke amongst the crowd. Really? Don't you know not everyone prefers to inhale tobacco unlike you? At least bear it for a while until the show is over. Or move away to light up. Also, there ARE minors there.
*Endure the rain, sweat and suffocation. Also, people jumping all over and step on your feet. Think really hard before you come.
Well I went to the All-American Rejects concert on Halloween. The show was worth the wait, let just say the experience could be better. On the positive note, the songs they perform are pretty good. From usual crowd pleasing "Dirty Little Secret", "Swing, Swing", "My Paper Heart", "Move Along" and "It Ends Tonight", and also the songs from their recent album: "Gives You Hell", "The Wind Blows", "I Wanna" and more. Tyson the lead singer is a hoot, entertaining and funny.
