It was the perfect location for this concert as Young is a musical icon. The size of the venue was just the right size to capture the heartfelt renditions of Young’s songs. To those unfamiliar with the venue, it appears like a large church more than a huge concert hall, providing for a quiet, intimate setting perfect for the acoustic instruments and voices to be enjoyed. The appreciative audience gave enthusiastic applause after each song performed; however, we are never given a glimpse of them. The stage itself was static throughout, backed only with the words “Prairie Wind”. The concert did not rely on visual effects to entertain, but solely on the musical abilities of the entertainers on stage.

In 2011 a new drug was created by Russian junkies looking for a cheap fix. The drug was named krokadil due to its effects on human skin making it green and scaly. However, one of the effects of prolonged usage of krokadil caused the users skin to fall off, thus being nicknamed the zombie drug. Somehow this drug found its way to a small city in a Californian desert named Static City. Things seemed grim until Pegasus Industries invented the miracle pill, a drug that cured the effects of krokadil. After their overwhelming success with the miracle pill Pegasus Ind. were granted a much larger fund and someone had the idea of creating an AI that could instantly cure any known disease, this was called Operation Dead Pegasus and it was highly classified.

have been well showcased in this difficult piece. These pieces are seen as challenges for many modern singers as well. It goes to show just how talented and well trained the performers were.

In conclusion, when the concert was over, I was able to feel all the energy and passion that the musician had for the each of their songs that they played or

The whole gang, which includes Paige, Brandon, Cyan, Jocelyn, and I, left The Spaghetti Factory. We started walking toward the general direction of the Public Square Park, which is where the concert was going to be held. Darkness had approached us, the sky was now pitch-black, and everywhere I looked, there were oceans of people, walking towards Live on the Green. Some people were dressed up and were wearing clothing that resembles that of a Fashionista. Then there were your “hipsters,” who dress up as homeless people, which made them look “groovy” and “funky”. We on the other hand, resided in the middle of that scale where we did not dress to impress, but certainly did not look shabby.

What is Krokodil? Krokodil is a liquid substance that contains many indigestible ingredients. These ingredients are; lighter fluid, gasoline, opiates, cleaning solutions such as bleach, hydrochloric acid, iodine, red phosphorous, and many other lethal ingredients. Krokodil is made different every time, mostly just ingredients that a person can find for little to no money. One of these ingredients is paint thinner. To make Krokodil, a person simply puts these ingredients in a bowl, transfers it to a spoon, and adds heat to the bottom. Next, they find a syringe, and suck the liquid into it so it can be injected into the body.

Warped tour, it's something i've always been aware of and wanted to go to, but i've never had anyone to go with. This year I just so happen to have an amazing boyfriend who just so happens to have the same taste in music as me, so we made a plan to go, like 4 months in advance. Anyways, the day of warped tour comes around and I missed a full 7 hour day of cosmetology just for some emo bands, but I don't regret it one bit. So we got there early and there wasn't too much going on, I was neither excited nor nervous at that point, I was fairly neutral about it. So it's like 11:30 and we hear these loud ass speakers of the first band that was playing and I don't know what it was but the intensity of those speakers filled

After that call, we found ourselves at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, waiting for a life-changing moment to occur. I don’t remember much about our initial performance, the lights were so bright, and I couldn’t hear the judges’ comments. But what I do remember is hearing

The headliners were Madeon and Porter Robinson, both DJs. The latter is my favorite of all time, which created much suspense for me and my friend when we arrived to the venue. Ever since we were assigned this project, I immediately thought about this show. Before taking this class, I always thought music was one of the greatest and most raw forms of art and I cannot go a day without listening to it. Doors opened and there we were, T-minus three hours until the headliners came on. The wait was rather boring as the other smaller DJs were neither as good nor as well-known as either Madeon or Porter Robinson. When one a.m. hit, the crowd was ready. The show started strong as they both played their most recognized songs, and we were having a great time. Then as an hour passed, Porter went to Madeon’s side and started playing the piano. In this moment, I felt as if nothing else mattered in the world. I started to match the sound of the piano with the songs I knew and then I realized he was playing my favorite song, Fellow Feeling. The song, which will be in the PowerPoint presentation, embodies how we can have a certain perception of someone or something but as we grow closer to them we realize the reality of who or what they are, which changes our perspective. It embodies the infamous saying that everything is more beautiful from a

We had stayed on the South side, little did we know this was the mostly Canadian side. All of our Bainbridge friends had bought camping passes to the North side, which was another trek all the way around the festival venue. About half an hour later, we reached the North side and met up with some of our buddies. I finally had found my friends Hannah and Julia, we caught each other's eyes and I had sprinted forward with open arms giving them each a big hug. After a couple hours of drinks and hanging out, the boys, Hannah, Julia and I decided to head to the festival. The bright sky had started to darken, we all had grabbed each other's hands and skipped passed thousands of people. We watched Joey Bada$$, Flosstradamus, J. Cole and Miguel perform that night. The boys put us on their shoulders, and we had started to sing along to every word we knew. I had never felt so close and connected with a group of people before this experience. The luminescent white lights hit my face at the same time as the sudden rain. The rain poured so hard soaking every inch of my body. I had looked over to see all my friends with grins and the inconsistent flashes of concert lights on their faces. Julia and Dashiell were hugging like there was no tomorrow and shouted all the lyrics to Miguel’s

We had just arrived in the room to see I Prevail. My mom, dad, and I were up on the rail; the stage was much closer than at any other concerns I had been to. Even though I had been to many concerts before, I was still nervous, but I was also excited. All I could smell was alcohol, Vape and sweat. We waited for what felt like hours - already sweating, listening to people talking around us, and hearing some background music. Then it finally happened ,the lights when down. The whole band ran onto stage.

Three years ago, I embarked on a quest. Something I thought would not happen until I was in my early twenties. Around that time, I experienced my first ever concert. A concert that will forever be relieved through my memory vault for the rest of my life in a such a vivid and breathtaking way that it is almost as if I can recount it as if it happened yesterday. Also, it was my first time going to such event by myself without the comfort of friends or family. A true experience that changed the way I view concerts, and it changed my perspective on how to act in such a public setting.

The vibrations from the drums felt like they were beating in my chest. The guitar pierces through my ears and the singer’s voice is so dark and deep, it sends shivers down my spine. It was exhilarating, it was my first concert.

The air was buzzing with soft whispers and laughter. My stomach was in all sorts of knots. I could feel my heart thumping vigorously inside my chest. It was a hot night and the giant sun-like lights that shined down on us from the McCallum theatre didn’t help at all. I held my bass guitar with a tight grip, repeating the notes I had practiced over and over in my head.

Thank you for always being a great friend of mine. We always hangout, do fun things, and make great, unforgettable memories. You almost always come to concerts with me, show me new music, and inspire me to love music even more. This is why I want to share you my three-day experience at a music festival called Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC), which is the second biggest music festival in the world.
