II: The best concert I've ever had

This one was a hard choice, because I really love concerts, but I'm gonna go with the Future Hearts Tour (September 9th, 2015), performed by All Time Low, my favorite band so far. They had their show in Teatro La Cúpula, which is inside the O'Higgins Park. It's like a small version of Movistar Arena.


They were formed in Baltimore, MD, started in 2003 making covers of Bowling for Soup, Blink-182 and Green Day. Then, they throw their first EP: The Three Words to Remember in Dealing with the End.

It had a really bad quality. Then, they signed for Hopeless Records, a pop-punk/post-hardcore label. Alex Gaskarth (lead vocals/guitar), Jack Barakat (guitar), Rian Dawson (drums) and Zack Merrick (back vocals/bass) came to Chile in 2012, but my mom didn't let me go to their concert because I was too young (I mean... 16? Until today I think that I could take care of myself back to these days).


That concert was really special to me, because I felt (and I still feel) like them and their music have grow up with me. And saw them first, live, was one of the most priceless experiences. Well, maybe not priceless, because I have to pay, but you know what I mean. The athmosphere was amazing from the beginning to the end; they interacted with us, and sang a lot of old and new songs. Also it was more intimate; they aren't the most famous band in the world, so the place wasn't sold out. I really liked the ilumination too, I don't know how they do it, but the rythm and the lights were so coordinated!

this is the only normal guy in the band
Also I was just beside a speaker, so it blew my ears away. That feels way better than drugs, trust me.

Meanwhile the band was playing "The Irony Of Shocking a Lifesaver", Jack came to me, stood in one of the speakers, and passed me a guitar pick. At first I couldn't believe it, because I didn't think that he would notice me! 

the guitar pick!

Other of my favourite moments was when us, like good chileans, started to sing "Mijito rico, mijito rico, lalala la la la lalala la la" and they started to play music underneath our voices. We made a great song!
