ELEVEN PEOPLE YOU COME ACROSS AT CONCERTS

April 29, 2015

I was at the Walk The Moon in at Lupos Providence, Rhode Island last week and I had one of those "novel" ideas that someone has probably thought of before, but in that moment it seems so new to you. I remember saying to my friends, "Guys, someone should make a buzzfeed listical of all the different types of people you meet at concerts, you know, the normal characters." My friends responded the usual "YASSSS." I was so pumped about my novel ideas until Google ruined my dreams, there were already tons of lists just like this out there. However, I will continue with my idea. Here is my list of the eleven types of characters you come across at concerts. 

1. The "My friends are up there"


Yeah, and I'm the queen of France.

2. The parent that doesn't want to be there


Anything to ensure their child's safety, though. You don't know what kind of crazy people you meet at concerts. They should have just read this blog post.

3. The parents that are more into it than everyone else


All that begging for the aux cord in their car finally paid off. 

4. The people that just met 


This interaction can go two ways: they're making lifelong friends or are trying to make a new romance.

5. The too tall guy in front of you


If you're short, it's inevitable.

6. The unfortunately short people


See above...

7. The awkward couple


That doesn't stop smooching and cuddling. 

8. Those who would rather watch the whole concert through their phone screen than their eyes


Watch out for their documentary of the concert on YouTube recorded through an iPhone.

9. The overly dedicated fans who made their own tee shirts

The aisles of the nearest Michaels has never looked the same since.

10. The head-bobber


It's easier than tapping your foot!

11. The boyfriend who just doesn't want to be there.

But his girlfriend was sooooooooo excited when he bought her tickets for her birthday!

THE 5 STAGES OF A POP SONG'S LIFE

December 04, 2014

Pop music - we can't live with it, can't live without it.  When a new song comes on the radio it somehow rises from background noise, to a jam, to the most annoying song, ever. How exactly does this transformation occur? After surveying a few of my friends, we've complied a list of the "five stages of a pop song's life."

1. Awareness


Sometimes you go bouts without listening to the radio, or you hear a song on a TV show or commercial but you just haven't gotten around to downloading it yet  - that's what I call the "awareness" stage. If you heard the song you'd remember some lyrics, but you haven't learned the name of it yet.

2. Intrigue


Finally, the intrigue kills you and you do your research. Shazam or SoundHound leads you to the mysterious song you've been jamming to and it's added to your iTunes library.

3. Acceptance

Perhaps you like it soooo much that you've decided it's not all the bubblegum stuff they play on the radio and you really like it. If it is the typical radio stuff, embrace it shamelessly, roll down the windows and jam out. You've accepted the newest hit.
4. Obsession
That one windows-down jam session turned into a daily occurrence. When you're with your friends, you play it and scream it on the from the top of your lungs. You started to hashtag tweets jokingly like the lyrics are relevant to your life. "My mom went shopping without me #TheHoesAintLoyal",  "I only like big booty hoes #MyAncacondaDon't". 

5. Annoyance

After the fun has subsided, and the radio stations haven't gotten the hint that the song is sooo last month, the annoyance sets in. You've become disgusted with everything that has to do with the song and the artist, and flip by it when it comes up on your iTunes, radio, or streaming. However, it'll be forever buried in your "top 25 most played" grave of regret.
