Tonight’s concert will forever remain legendary. After waiting 3 years (I couldn’t make it to Warped ‘08:/), I finally got to witness history - GCH, TAI, and Cobra all in one venue<3 And VersaEmerge and ARTTM were quite amazing; it made my heart happy to see everyone pull this night off so perfectly. Everyone sang along, and if they didn’t know the words, they just danced. You could really tell that everyone was there for the music. The only thing I didn’t understand was how a lot of people were violently pushing to get to the front. I understand that this is a norm for concerts, especially rock concerts, but it just made me sad because those people focused more on getting to the front than to the actual band in front of them. On a plus note, I was able to bond with the people around me, people who were complete strangers, and become family in the face of music for one night - And I’m usually not one for clichés.
The best part was when the Butcher, former drummer for The Academy Is... came back
out, alone, for a final goodbye. It honestly made me a bit teary.
After seeing how invested we all were, I couldn’t stop smiling the whole train ride home.
Fun was had all around.
Indeed.
:D
