The best concert I've had



One of the best concerts I've had was Lollapalooza festival. I went last year, and it was awesome.

I remember that the first time that the show was in our country, I really wanted to go, but I didn't have the money to pay for the tickets. Something similar happened the second year. When I knew there would be a third edition on april 2013, I thought that the story maybe the same as the other years, but when the line up was published I told myself that I couldn't be absent: the Red Hot Chili Peppers would be on stage! I worked all summer to afford the tickets, and I made it, I went to the festival.

I bought a two day ticket. The first day I went with one of my best friends, Roxana, And I had a great time, because she showed me a lot of bands that were playing in Parque O'higgins. They were pretty good, but I was expecting my favorite band. When the time came, I was nervous waiting between a big crowd. Then, suddenly, Anthony appeared on stage and I start shouting like I was nuts. But, during the concert, I realize that they weren't as good as I imagined, they let me down. At the end, I was really bored, because their show wasn't as crazy as I thought it would be. Actually, I would say that it was as if I was listening to my mp3 all the time, nothing really new happened.

I went with my boyfriend the second day. We had a really good time, and we listened to Casablancas and Johny Marr. But the show I liked the most, was Arcades Fire's. They were original, and the sound was perfect.

I like the experience in Lolla because I got to know a lot of bands that normally I wouldn't have payed attention before, so it made me grow in some way. Also I like it because I went with two really important people in my life, and we had a great time.

  1. I looooove RHCP and I was feeling so bad for not going to their concert on Lollapalooza... then I realize that I didn't miss anything special... that's so sad because they are a really good band, one of my favorites.

    Hugs!
