MUSE

MUSE. 
-Holy fish paste.-
Their name says it all.


I do not have the capacity to accurately express the magnitude of their performance in words. 
The closest I can get is... mind-blowing. Impeccable lighting. Choreographed lasers. Technological. High Energy. Face-melting guitar solos. Dramatic. Loud. Exciting. Continually climactic. Amazing vocals. Original effects. Tight. Grand. Fun.
One of the most money experiences in life.
I LOVED it.

Here's a little taste of what I'm talking about...
The pyramid lifted up and the band was set
underneath it.




His piano lights up on the inside when he plays it.
That's the reflection of the lights on the lid.



Seriously...can't stop thinking about the show. Muse has earned the reputation of being one of the best live acts to see, and my opinion fully supports it. I was floored.
If you ever get the chance, and concerts are your thing, go see MUSE.








...and to think... I would have never taken advantage of this concert opportunity if it weren't for the recommendation of one of my favorites, Chelsea Karch. (Name drop.) Glad I got to share it will you, friend. :)

"It's Time" for Imagine Dragons


Imagine Dragons... LIVE.


I would pay to see them again at the drop of a hat and recommend one of their concerts to anyone.



 Why? Oh, I'll tell you.
They have: 
  1. Great songs. There's a mix of intensity and fun--all of it is clean and uplifting.
  2. Epic drum breaks.
  3. A drum big enough to hold at least 6 adults inside of it, not to mention a few children.
  4. A foxy lead singer with even foxier pipes.
  5. Swell lighting.
  6. Glow-in-the-dark beach balls.
  7. Fantastic energy!
  8. Beats that rock you right to your center.
  9. Humility and sincerity in their performance--these guys are grateful for the opportunity to share music.
  10. A tight sound that maintains a fresh quality.



I have been aware of Imagine Dragons for  about a year and a half now, and I'll admit: my love for them was always a little hesitant and half-hearted. I wasn't sure about all they had to offer as a band. However, seeing them perform live changed everything: I now consider myself a true fan. Thanks for getting me a ticket, Dave.




If you have yet to give Imagine Dragons a listen, I will tell you now: "It's Time."
