My best concert
On the 11th of april, in 2018, I went to one of the most memorable concerts ever. It was on the national stadium (Estadio Nacional) in Santiago. At the SUE Festival -where bands like Junun (which is indian) and Flying Lotus amazed me- I had the oportunity to attend to Radiohead latest album concert, A moon Shaped Pool.
The tickets to the concert where a gift from my sister, who is also my best friend in the earth. It was a beautiful gift because the festival was one day before her birthday, and she spent her earnings from work (she is a student as I am, so the money was not a lot) to buy those expensive but precious tickets. My sister has been a big fan of the band since her infance, so we have been listening all their albums during most of our life. She is almost two years younger than me and, at first, I was really reticent to fall deep with Radiohead, because it felt really sad and nostalgic (also because I was more into Metal music, but that's a different story). But during my emo adolescence their albums where a significant part of my daily sountrack (as dramatic as it sounds).
Radiohead is a british rock band formed in 1985. Their first album is Pablo Honey, where the song 'Creep', was a big hit (and, their worse work, I think). I believe it is a very relevant band because the development of their music, which became a referent to a lot of musicians and artists on early years.
The atmosphere during the concert was a little bit exciting, but it was more quiet than other rock concerts that i've been. Maybe as it is supposed to be, people enjoyed the concert singing loudy to chorus, mostly sitting on their chairs, or standing straight in their positions. In the antipode of the ambient there, we where so excited that we screamed and danced like, literally, crazy people. The most funny fact of that concert was that people where melancholic crying at the same moment that we where dancing and screaming.
I was so overwhelmed by memories and emotions that emerged listening and watching their performance that I couldn't care any less the little show that we where surely doing. I have to say that I'm a shy person, one that blushes easily and cries just after talking with more than two people at the same time. But it was a joyfull happy instance that I'd never regret.
