I Do It Digital

I used to go to concerts pretty frequently when I was in high school and loved every adrenaline pumped minute of them. I think the last concert I went to was in my freshmen year of college which would make it well over 7 years ago. When I heard on the radio of 3 great shows coming up in August I knew the time had come and I had to go to one of them. The headliners for the 3 shows were Linkin Park, 311, and Korn; three of my favorite bands. Korn being my #1 fav made it my obvious first pick but since I had seen them 3 times already i started leaning towards the other two. Then I called my buddy Alex up and asked him if he had thought about going to either of them. He said that they had planned on going to the 311 concert and that we should join them. That made it easy to decide after that.

After making the decision that we were in fact going I went and looked up who was playing with them and found out it was Matisyahu which made me that much more excited. I hadn’t listened to his whole album but from the singles played on the radio I was really diggin him. Went to iTunes and listened to a bunch of his other tracks to get a better feel for him and see if there were any other songs I would recognize of his.

Fast forward 3 weeks and I’m in Dodge Theatre rocking out to some hard core beats. The concert was from 8-11 and the energy was there the whole time. It was so gnarly that I can’t wait for the next concert to come up. It’s too bad Korn is this weekend and not a few more weeks out; I might have actually gone to it. My ears are still ringing from the sheer noise coming from the tower of speakers, but the excitement of the whole thing overpowers any amount of damaging decibels.
