  1. When I was in 5th grade, we had a talent show, and it was hilarious. It was the last act, and it was 5-6 girls, all wearing a giant decorated brown bag over their heads. Each one had a face and hair. They all got into place and danced funnily to music.

    There is also a show that the Harlem Globetrotters did at Kings island, and it was also a bit funny. They had 3 guys from the team, one short, one medium, and one really tall. The short guys name is too tall so they made a game called "get the ball from too tall" and a few kids would try to get a basketball from him. They all trampled him and beat him in less than 1-2 minutes.
     
  2. I've seen a couple of Cirque du Soleil shows. Of course, everything looks great and is elegant with a hint of surrealism. But they weren't super memorable for me. Last year I saw Celine Dion in Vegas and she seems to be a very energetic and fun person. Her voice is still the same which is awesome. But if I had to pick a really memorable show, it would be Broadway.

    I went with my mom to see Les Miserables when I was 5 or 6 because my school was promoting it. I remember being enthralled by the whole thing and my mom said I didn't even fall asleep. And then there's Wicked which I've seen 2 times and I wouldn't mind watching it a 3rd time. I think the charm with Wicked is its relevance, its script and its message. Always get goosebumps in Defying Gravity.
     
  3. My younger sister when she got up in front of our school and sung a song she wrote in respect to our brother who passed away, my whole body was overwhelmed with pride for her and I felt resolved about his passing and felt well- happy, it was as though the room and every person in that room were something much bigger than any of us had ever dreamed of and ugh, no performance will ever beat that
     
  4. The best live show I've ever been to was at a local comedy club. My friends all do comedy, so I often go to support them, one night my best friend told me to make sure I made her set.

    It went well and she got some great laughs, but right at the end she asked for the lights to be brought up.She called her boyfriend up on stage, the whole crowd was confused as to what was happening. She started telling everyone a list of reasons why she loved him, we were all waiting for a punchline.

    But she turned to him, got down on one knee, and asked him, in front of all their friends and loved ones, to marry her. Of course he said yes, I swear there wasn't a dry eye in the house. They got married 8 months later and have just celebrated their 2 year anniversary.
     
  5. Last summer I went to a music festival where I saw the killers. I've been to tons of concerts, but theirs was a top fav for so many reasons, starting with the fact that I've dreamt of seeing them live since I was probably 12!! This was the best opportunity to see them because they haven't been to my home state for about 9-10 yEaRs

    They did a cover of a Muse song, which I appreciated since the first night of the music festival ended early. Muse had played maybe 3 songs into their set when the entire park had to be evacuated due to an insane storm, so we had to miss out on them.

    They also played my favorite song by them and belting out the lyrics with my best friend at the top of our lungs will always be a great memory. Then the last song they did was Mr. Brightside, and every single person in the crowd knew all the words. Hearing everyone sing so loudly and get so hype was beautiful :')

    Anyways there's my cheesy but amazing experience thnx
     
  6. My favorite band in the entire world is “Say Anything”. I’ve been obsessed with them from the moment I first heard any of their music. I was 13 when they came out with my all time favorite album, and was too young to be able to see them in concert. Although I liked their other albums, I always wished that I could see them preform songs from my favorite album, but they never do old album songs on a tour.

    I had been dating my boyfriend at the time for about two years when the band announced they would be doing a 10 year anniversary tour for my favorite album. He surprised me with tickets. I was so very excited and became even more excited when I found out that our group of friends all got tickets too.

    There is a really awesome song on the album which is really a kind of love song. Before the song he said my name and said that this song was dedicated to me via my boyfriend. Next thing I know, my group of friends were pushing people away as my boyfriend got on one knee and proposed while the song was playing. After the song played, the lead singer congratulated us and continued with the show.

    Apparently, my boyfriend wrote in to the band and told him the plan and they were all for it. He had already gotten the tickets, so the band threw in vip passes so we could meet the band after. It was a seriously unforgettable concert.

  8. I had trouble choosing a favorite live show, since Ive seen quite a few. A lot of good ones, too: concerts, circuses, Lion King on Broadway almost got described here; however, the one to take the cake as the most memorable, although maybe not technically a live show, was when I was 6. My grandparents had taken me to Paris for the first time, and we had dinner at a rooftop restaurant overlooking Eiffle Tower. As evening fell, the lights started to come on, and I remember hanging over the balcony with my mouth hanging open as I watched the city become even more beautiful at night. I told my grandmother I wanted to live there. When she asked why, I said because it's like Christmas every day! That night, my 6 year old heart fell in love with the City of Lights.
     
  9. I went to a got7(kpop group) concert 2 years ago and it's my first ever live concert and it's was the best.
    I was standing at the front row of the concert and I got up close with the members and some members even make eye contact with me
    I literally almost faint and was dying due to the lack of water as we can't bring water to the hall but 2 hours plus of shouting n screaming and what's best is that I can see the members itself its the best day of my life.
    Overall I totally enjoy myself and I went out of the hall having post concert depression and almost losing my voice. But I totally enjoy it.
    Ps: I cried seeing them as they look so real as I only get to see them in videos but seeing them in real life make me so happy
     
  10. Was at Neon Countdown for New Year’s this year, and everyone was hyped up for the party. Neon paint everywhere. Techno music pumping through the background. Things heated up when DJ KSHMR started playing.

    Even saw a couple went into a small portable potty to.. *ahem*

    But, anywayyyyyyy..

    The fireworks was amazing. In my whole experience of life, the fireworks at that event was so real.. so close.. it felt like you could just reached out and grabbed them. And, they fall down around you like falling stars as they fade away. I could not fully appreciate the beauty of the fireworks then as my female sugar glider had recently passed away.. but, I wish that somehow.. she knows that she will always be remembered.

    Thus, my 2018 started.
