Concert At Boy Band Concert

The stage is lit up by luminous lights in various neon colors. Fog begins to fill the stadium of ten thousand screaming fans. It is show time. They run out from backstage. The crowd gets abruptly louder as the band begins to sing. This is a day in the life of a boy band member. Although nineties boy bands and modern boy bands are thought to be exactly the same, they are actually both similar and different in many ways. They have different styles of music, they are either synchronized or individual performers, and they became famous because of the influence of technology.

There’s no better feeling than being at a concert and jamming along to songs that you love while surrounded by people who share the same love for the music. Music concerts are majestic environments where a variety of different people come together in order to share their love of music. A few weeks ago I attended a Zac Brown Band concert for the first time and I was truly inspired by the band’s artistry and skill. The band was fully able to captivate their audience with their soulful tunes and obvious passion for performing. One moment of the concert that particularly stood out to me was when the band performed a cover of The Beatles hit song “Let it Be.” Zac Brown Band was able to stay true to the original song while bringing a whole different level of soul to the music through the addition of a gospel choir. The audience immediately related to the song and came together to sing along to a song by one of the biggest bands in music history. Zac Brown Band was able to successfully deliver such a powerful song as “Let it Be” which was off of The Beatles final studio album.

It is Saturday, November 14, 2015 at Mesa, Arizona. A large crowd occupies large spaces all over downtown attending different stages of the first Mesa Musical Festival. Facing the Automotive Callahan Stage at Il Vinaio Restaurant, and only moments after a Rock 'n Roll band finish its performance, the place begins to fill with a public made up of many familiar faces. Voices in Spanish are confused with the English. Suddenly, some musicians begin to take the stage. Six, eight, ten, twelve, fourteen people in total with a lot of musical instruments: keyboards, drums, congas, trumpet, bass, guitars, maracas, cuatro. The music starts, and immediately the public begin jumping, singing,

My friends and I walk into a packed venue, and are immediately met by a young guy with shaggy brown hair and a skull hoodie, who holds up a white piece of paper with a hastily scrawled "$8" in the center. I pull out my worn wallet from the left pocket of my leather jacket. My hands strain momentarily to pull the snaps open, before my fingers find their way to my single worn 10 dollar bill. The man hands me two dollars in change and stamps my hand with a blue paw print, and I turn to face the stage. All the while a man has been screaming and singing on stage, not unpleasantly. The vibe of this crowd feels different from the normal one, rougher. They have a more hardcore look to them, and I've never seen Alexia's band play with one that yells, other than one time at a small coffee shop in which a single kid with an acoustic guitar spent twenty minutes strumming and screaming slam poetry into the mic, while my friend and I sipped iced vanilla lattes in the other room.

The mass of almost one hundred thousand is edgy. The night is hot, humid, and alive with a feeling in the air so palpable you can almost trace it with your finger. The bleachers are filled to maximum capacity, along a mile-long stretch of paved roadway adjacent to an old brewery. People from all races, classes, and countries are celebrating together at the culmination of the orgiastic, pre-Lenten, hedonistic festival of Carnival. Soon, the first marchers proceed down the corridor to the booming cacophony of bass, snare, and friction drums. The rattling of tambourines, bells, and scrapers add flavor and accent. Like a bird set free, the singing cavaquinho (ukulele) emits its high pitched cries, adding to the frenzy. The marchers and

For my concert report, I chose to attend a University Chambers Players performance. Within this classical genre of music, the pieces performed were all homophonic in texture and each melody introduced was supported by chordal accompaniment. All of the pieces performed ranged from an eighteenth to twentieth century time period, and furthermore, each performance employed the use of western world instruments, such as the piano, cello, violin, and viola.

On February 25, 2016, I was able to see the Mid-Year Band Concert in the PAC. The pieces I have chosen to review were performed by the Varsity, Symphonic II and Symphonic I Bands and conducted by Mr. Bailey and Mr. Hillhouse. “King Cotton,” “Amparito Roca,” and “Valdres” were among my favorites in the program and are all coincidentally, marches.

As a crowd individuals lose their morality along with their aggressive

On October 1, 2017, I went to The Shins concert at the Cal Coast Credit Union amphitheater at San Diego State University. On this occasion, I accompanied my brother who is a devoted fan of The Shins. I agreed to accompany him when he bought the tickets during the summer. Further, the only song I’ve heard from The Shins is “Saint Simon”, which was included in the Windows XP media player, as one of the sample songs. Moreover, we arrived at SDSU around 5 pm. We easily found parking at one of the parking structures in SDSU. If I remember correctly, they charged $15 for the parking. Upon arriving to the venue, I observed that most of the concertgoers were adults, some parents took their children to the concert as it was an all ages concert. Also,

I have chosen to review the musical Guys and Dolls Jr., performed by the Charlotte Country Day Middle School. At the beginning of the musical, there are many discussions about the unknown location of the famous Nathan Detroit’s next crap game. Nathan has been engaged to Adelaide, who is a performer at the Hot Box, for fourteen years. Nathan Detroit learns that Sky Masterson, a well-known gambler, is in town. After a failed attempt at a cheated bet, Sky bets Nathan that Sky would be able to take any ‘doll’, including Sarah Brown to Havana, Cuba. Sarah Brown works for the mission, and has trouble arousing attention from gamblers and drinkers on the street. After much persistence on Sky’s part, as well as a promise to bring sinners

On October 1st, 2015 I attended the Rich Homie Quan concert in the HUB Ohio room. When I first walked in I was super surprised at how they transformed the room to look like an actual concert area. The venue consist of cool lights, the stage, speakers, security, other staff, etc. My two friend and I were first in line, so we ended up being in the front row. As time got closer the venue started filling up with a bunch of hyper college students. Everyone was dressed casual because it's important to dress comfortable at a concert to have the most fun. It was the complete opposite atmosphere from the orchestra. The performer Rich Homie Quan is a rapper/singer. He was dressed in a t-shirt, very expensive jeans and sneakers. He performed about 6 songs

Glassboro High School held a Board of Education and budget submission meeting on March 26, which lasted about 50 minutes.

On November 18, I attended the Cabana Boys concert presented by the Music Department at Fullerton College. The band itself was made up of Fullerton College students, and the concert was directed by Dr.Gregory Woll. Generally speaking, The Cabana Boys are a “high energy group performing contemporary music including latin, rock, fusion and pop” (department). The band consisted of these eight members and instruments: Jonny White, Trumpet; Jack Sneddon, Trombone; Oscar Soriano, Sax; Blake Rambo, Bass; Gabe Barraza, Guitar; Nico Vasquez, Drum set; Juan Garcia, Percussion and Gio Thomson, vocalist.

On Sunday, May10 2015, a concert was held in The Broad Stage. The concert was played by Santa Monica College Symphony Orchestra, whose conductor is Dr. James Martin. For this concert, I would identify myself as a referential listener at this concert. I say this because I am not an expert in music, therefore it would be hard for me to be a critical listener. I wouldn’t be able to tell what went wrong with a performance even if some incorrect notes were played. I was more of a referential listener because the music was soothing and brought my mind to peaceful thoughts. This essay will tells my experience of the concert in order to persuade my friend to  attend a classical music concert with you in the future.

Heavy metal listeners are often categorised as violent people and are often misunderstood, through this multi-stage research I will undercover the truth behind the stereotypes and try to understand if listeners of different music really have differences in behaviours.
