Personal Narrative On September 3rd of last year, I met one of my favorite bands, Grouplove, at their concert. It was a beautiful, sunny wednesday afternoon. As soon as i got home I ran upstairs to start getting ready. I turned on some music and played it as loud as my speaker could play. I had picked out my outfit the night before because I was so excited. All i had to do now was curl my hair and fix up my makeup, that I already had on from going to school. After burning my fingers a couple of times on my curling wand, I applied some powder to my face and mascara. I put on my outfit, then my shoes and I was ready to go. I went downstairs to see if my mom was finally ready to go because she is as slow as a butterfly without wings when it comes to getting ready. Once she was ready, we got in the car and headed for the venue. We had to wait in line for what seemed like forever to get up to the door. When we got up to the door the woman working asked, “Can I scan your tickets?” I quickly handed her my ticket. Once my mom and I walked through the door, I could barely hold in my excitement. We quickly walked up to the stage, so that we could be in the front. …show more content…

I don’t have very much body strength, so I was just being pushed around the front of the stage. Tons of people had drinks in their hands while pushing eachother around. I got beer spilled all over me, I smelt so bad once it was all over. After performing for a couple hours, they said their thank yous and goodbyes. The lights in the venue turned on after that so everyone could gather their things and leave. Everyone tried to run out to their cars to beat traffic, meanwhile, my mom and I sat outside by Grouplove’s tour bus hoping they would come out to say hello. All the workers at the venue kept telling us that they were not coming out to meet anyone. We waited there for about 30 minutes, I’ve never been so anxious in my

    After the long wait to get in you found your seat and waited for the group who was first. You would figure that know one would be doing any drugs due to the search before you got in there, but I was wrong not even ten minutes before the show you could smell the pot in the air. That was one of the few things wrong with this wild and crazy concert. After it was over that was all you smelled like and you were feeling the contact buzz as it felt like things were moving in slow motion.

    On Monday March 25, some members of the baseball team, my girlfriend, and I traveled to Murray State University to watch a concert performed by Nelly and the St. Lunatics. It was a terrible night to go anywhere because it was raining and storming the whole way, but there was nothing that was going to stop us from going to the concert. We where all so hyped up about it and couldn’t wait to head out. My brother, who attends Murray State, had gotten us excellent seats about seventy-five feet away from the stage.

It was still warm out and it still felt like summer; we didn’t know that we could have this much fun in one night, but we knew we were going to have fun no matter what. My first concert had to be one of the best nights of my life and one of my most favorite nights of my life during my senior year.

  • Writing a Personal Narrative

    473 Words  | 1 Pages

    Personal narratives allow you to share your life with others and vicariously experience the things that happen around you. Your job as a writer is to put the reader in the midst of the action letting him or her live through an experience. Although a great deal of writing has a thesis, stories are different. A good story creates a dramatic effect, makes us laugh, gives us pleasurable fright, and/or gets us on the edge of our seats. A story has done its job if we can say, "Yes, that captures what living with my father feels like," or "Yes, that’s what being cut from the football team felt like."

    I remember everything, just like it happened yesterday. It had always been my dream to go to a Justin Bieber Tour Concert. I remember getting a phone call on February,16th from my friend, Brooklynn. She asked me if I wanted to go to a Justin Bieber concert with her. I remember running outside, screaming at the top of my lungs, just being so excited to finally fulfill my dreams of going to see Justin Bieber perform. The concert was months away, and I couldn’t wait. We both did some research and found out all of the songs that would be playing, so that we could memorize them all. Then our tickets came in the mail. I couldn’t believe how close we were to the stage. The week before the concert Brooklynn, and I got together to design our shirts. The t shirts were purple. On the front we wrote We love you Justin, and on the back, Breanna Bieber with a pink heart. The night before the concert, all I did was sit in my room listening to Justins’ music.

  • Analysis Of The Hair Metal Band By Mötley Crüe

    It was New Year’s Eve. Often during so, the clubs and bars would be brimming with youth and underage teenagers waiting to count down to New Year’s Day. However, I spent my New Year’s Eve in the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The sports arena was mostly crowded with middle aged adults and everyone was there not to watch a game, but to bid farewell to a legendary hair metal band, Mötley Crüe. The band’s career spanned three decades and they ended it all at the birthplace of hair metal - Los Angeles, California. I really enjoyed the show because even though the band has aged staggeringly, they managed to maintain the elements of a hair metal concert – face-melting guitar solos, pyrotechnics, female dancers in skimpy clothing, and to

    Once I let my thoughts return to the music, I knew what lie ahead of me. I tapped the nearest "big guy" on the shoulder and pointed towards the ceiling; the universal signal on the concert floor. He nodded, grabbed my foot, and pushed me on top of the crowd. Once I was up there was no turning back. Soon strong hands were surfing me towards the stage. I had the best view in the house and reveled in the moment. I was fueled by an adrenaline rush that was only heightened by the fusion of the music and the energy of the crowd.

    Everyone loves a thrill. We watch movies that make us rethink what is in the dark with us, jump off of bridges and cliffs with our only savior being a bungee cord that may or may not be 10 years old, and we create gravity defying, speeding cars without motors and brakes. The crazy thing is, we do it all for fun. I, however, didn’t have a fun time when I went on a roller coaster that went upside down for the first time.

We went to breakfast at Denny's, after which we made our way to Denver, the site of the day's big event. On our way to my cousin's apartment, we drove by the multi million-dollar complex.

    It was on September 9th at the Austin360 Amphitheater and it had started a seven that night. At this concert was a mixture of artist such as Chris Brown, Omarion, Kid Ink, Fetty Wap, French Montana, and Teyana Taylor. The concert was called One Hell of a Nite Tour. From the many different topics we have learned in Sociology I noticed that there was only a specific group of people at this concert. When I had looked around I noticed that it was only people within the age range of about 18-25. Most of the people I talked to there were college students. It was a mixture of all races but it was diverse. You could easily tell who the wealthy was and who did not have much money. The wealthy people sat up close to the performers, while the ones with not much money was on the

    Then audience members who were perfect strangers who were screaming loudest would turn to each other with knowing glances and smile because they were sharing the same excitement and connecting with one another over their love of this man’s music. There was no pushing or shoving to get closer to the stage – it wasn’t that kind of crowd. Instead, there was mutual respect for one another’s space within the confines of the too-small venue. Nobody wanted to be the person who ruined it for someone else. It was this respect that made the audience members’ connections with one another that much stronger – we were all here to listen to this wonderful man’s music and see his performance – and, of course, we were here to enjoy it.

  • The Day I Almost Lost My Father

    One day in the midst of summer, my friend Mike and I got off from a hard day of work and were on our way to the mall. While at work we had planned to meet a few people there. I was going to be seeing my friend Jessica who I had not talked to in years. Before leaving, we stopped off at our houses, took showers, and got ready. As I anxiously waited on the stairs for his car to roll into the driveway, my mom said, “Be careful and do not drive like an idiot.” I obviously said alright and she was on her way. Minutes later I see my friend Mike pull into the driveway. I slipped my feet into my shoes and got in his car. We were almost to the mall when his phone rang. He picked it up and said, “Hello?” It was my mom and she wanted to speak to me. Upon putting the phone to my ear she told me that I had to come home right away. She said that my dad had just gotten into a car crash and that I had to come home and watch my sister. I did not know how to break the news to Mike, that what we were anticipating all day would not happen. He was upset, but he understood what was going on. I came home thinking it was the same old same old; he had gotten hit by a drunk driver, the car got totaled, and he was fine.
