Rock On?!?

Last Monday, I attended my first "rock" show with two of my co-workers. I didn't know what to expect and well I didn't know if I would be able to stand through the music, I don't really listen to rock music. I however, had a great time. The concert was held at the beautiful Rapids Theater in Niagara Falls and Jeff and Rob were great at prepping me for what to expect. We saw Digital Summer, Trivium and Volbeat. I will admit once Trivium took the stage I thought a fight broke loose, but it was only the mosh pit that formed. It was quite distracting as I was more interested in the people bouncing off of one another than the band on the stage. For the headliner, Volbeat the music was a little "softer" and there were actually a few songs I bobbed my head too. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely attend another show with the guys again. I don't know if I can say I'm a "rocker chick" now, but I may use that term from time to time. Thanks Jeff and Rob for taking me under your wings and showing me how to rock. #Rockon

{7 Things I've learned from the rock concert}

1. Be prepared to see people crowd surfing

2. When you fall in the mosh pit, they help you back up.

3. You have to wear at least one thing that is black

4. It took me 3 beers exactly to "let loose"

5. The girls that attend these shows are tough!

6. Be prepared to stand close to people.

7. I tried understanding what the band was singing and even saying for that matter...DON'T, just go with it! Halfway through the 2nd act I gave up trying to understand what they were saying.
