Kings on Fire - Mission #24 - 1/10
This week blew by as I was studying for two exams but I managed to catch a concert the day before one of my exams which is a highly un-Sloane thing to do and thrilling to say the least. The band performing was Kings of Leon, a band composed of three brothers and a cousin from the U.S . I had heard good things from mags like Spin and from Strombo but, I never thought to take a listen till one of my friends was like, "I'm in love" (however this was not so much a reference to her enjoyment of their music more so a reference to the bass player). Anywhoo I listened and I liked. We ended up getting tickets to the sold out show and I personally had never been to a rock concert that hyper or big and the experience was overwhelming in a good way; thousands of people signing together was an amazing spectacle and everyone stood till the end even the people like me in the upper most balcony of the stadium. Safe to say it was memorable. Unfortunately it was a no camera/video show and my friend's camera phone wasn't of much use since we were so far away, still got the memory and that's good enough. I think everyone should go to at least one massive rock concert in their life time.
