Day 8 of the 30 Day Challenge

Day #8: Bands/Artists you have seen live

Todays post is an easy one for me considering I have only seen one (boy) band live. I know I am only 27 but going back to when I was 14 years old seems like a long time ago. When I was 14 my godmother, Sherry, took me to see The Backstreet Boys. I was so obsessed with that group. T-shirts, watches, posters, and CDs. You name it I had it as long as it had their picture on it lol. I will never forget the day Sherry called and told me she got tickets. I could hardly believe it. I was super excited.

I remember counting down the days until the concert. The drive to Los Angeles seemed to take forever. When we got to Los Angeles we went to a little restaurant and had dinner. It was nice but I was so excited I could hardly eat. I just wanted to get to the concert and get in our seats. When we finally got there it was crazy. There were so many girls with posters, security everywhere, and a lot of noise. It was a bit overwhelming. My godmother bought me a program and a t-shirt and we finally got to our seats.

The opening acts were a guy group with 3 members, that I can't remember the name of and Mandy Moore. I loved her right away. She wasn't really big yet but I remember her. Then The Backstreet Boys came out and it was awesome!!!! I had so much fun. I screamed until my head hurt, sang my lungs out, and had the time of my life. It was a great night. Now that I look back on it I realize it was one of the nicest things someone has done for me. My godmother did a lot of nice things for me and I am grateful for that and for her.

Have you been to any concerts? What was your first concert? Which has been your favorite?
