Rock festivals are something different

Let’s take a break from writing for a moment.

I don’t attend too many rock/metal shows and that’s a huuuge mistake.

 

I had a charity event in my city, where a few local bands played a concert. Of course I couldn’t miss it, since rock/metal shows in my city are a very rare thing. And you know what? My jaw dropped.

It’s awesome to see how people are passionate about this music. A few guys in my dad’s age enter the scene and keep rocking as if they were 20-30 years younger.

And when you feel bass vibrations in your whole body, you just can’t stand still. Maybe your ears and neck hurt the next day, but that’s just a minor inconvenience.

However, it was the kids that stole the show. A group of 3-4 girls (around 5-7 years old) sneaks into the corner of the scene and just… dances. No shame, no fear, no insecurity, they just enjoy the show. I think adults could only learn from them…

 

There’s also a downside that made me worried a bit. Around 90% of the audience were middle-aged people and their little kids. It was hard to spot anyone between 15-25 years old. Maybe it looks differently in bigger cities, but here the teenagers were quite… stiff. It’s always the older people who express their engagement the most. Weird thing.

 

Oh, and do you know what's metal AF? My book is metal AF! Check out
