Personal Narrative: My 5 Seconds Of Summer Concert

563 Words3 Pages

Gerard Way, a former member of My Chemical Romance, once said, “Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about.” My perfect day would be the day I get to go to my 5 Seconds of Summer concert. This paper will include the people that will be attending the concert, how I will be preparing for the concert, and the events that will occur at the concert.
I bought a pair of 5 Seconds of Summer tickets and I gave a ticket to Hailey Boyer for her sixteenth birthday. Hailey will be the person attending the concert with me. Hailey and I have dreamt of going to a 5 Seconds of Summer concert for two years now. Hailey and I will be carpooling with Maddie Hite and her friend Meghan. We will meet up with Haley Holt when we get to the arena. Hailey, Maddie, Meghan, and I will be surrounded by a couple of thousand other 5 Seconds of Summer fans in the arena. …show more content…

Hailey and I have to make sure that we are wearing the perfect outfit, because our dreams could come true and we could casually bump into Luke, Calum, Michael, and Ashton, who are the members of 5 Seconds of Summer. We have to make sure we have everything that we need with us. We will need to bring portable chargers for our phones, red glowsticks for a project that will be occurring during one of the songs at the concert, and plenty of money for food and merchandise. I have been a fan of 5 Seconds of Summer for three and a half years now, and I have never had the chance to see them in concert, so we also have to be ready to breathe the same air as our

    There were a lot of people in attendance at this game with which I spoke who said that they come to the games, whether they be home or away, to see and hear the Highlander Marching Band perform both pep tunes and their halftime performance. While many of these people that I talked to were friends and relatives of the band members, there were a few who really had no affiliation with the band whatsoever.

However, those who really did not have affiliation with the band gave me some more
