late night drive home is a band that i haven't been a fan of for too long. i had only started listening to them in early 2023, around february. however, their songs are.. really good. i really do love their songs, they just hit so good. when i found out they were having a concert near me, i was really excited. i have a job now, and thus money to spend. i thought i'd treat myself. after talking with my parents and negotiating with my brother so he could drop me off, i was able to go! and i'm glad i did. it was a great experience!

i brought my emil sinclair (limbus company) cotton doll with me. otherwise, i wouldn't have taken any pictures.. here's some!

i was really nervous about people thinking i was weird.. i mean, i was showing up to a concert alone!!! and i had a mask on and dressed in mostly black and was periodically holding onto and taking pictures of a doll!! and then i realized. i will literally never see any of these people ever again in my life. why should i care about strangers that have no impact on my life? theyre not gonna kill me, and i could care less even if they did make fun of me. it wont ruin my life, if anything im hindering my enjoyment by NOT taking my pictures. so yeah. i got over it.

anyways, onto the main event. the concert!! texana and estrada were the opening bands, they were pretty good! i didnt record much though. i saved my battery and storage for late night drive home. the concert was so so good. i got there pretty early so i got a good spot for most of my videos! i only recorded the songs i knew, but later i listened to the ones i didnt know. star love is soo good.. also, this was my first mosh experience! people were jumping and rocking and i felt like a salad the way i was getting tossed and shuffled around.. it was so fun!! i was scared i'd lose sinclair, but my coat has zippers, so once i was able to get him in safely, it was fine! anyways, here's my recording!

after the concert, i went to buy a hoodie. i wanted a shirt or a long sleeve, but they didn't have my size ): here's the hoodie!

i like it a lot, it's pretty simple. i saw on the website they also have another hoodie, i might get one eventually, it looks really cool.

all in all, a great experience. im glad i went (:
