The show

The show that I went to on Friday was amazing. We left Cortland at around 1:45pm, right after we had finished classes and finished eating. Since one of my friends here couldn't go, I invited my friend Conor from Binghamton to attend the event. After we had picked him up from Binghamton, we were on our way to the show. It took us about three hours to get from Binghamtom down to Poughkeepsie, where the show was being held. The time went by fast though because we listened to all of the bands we were going to see. We got to Jill's house at around 5:25pm, and the show was starting at 5:30pm. We quickly made ourselves a sandwhich and headed out to the show. We got there just in time to see one of my bands I was looking most forward to. The show was such a fun time. The Chance, the place that was holding the show, was really packed. When we listened to the bands we stood in the pit, and watched as kids around us went into the mosh pits. There were two different bands playing at the same time, one in the main stage, and one upstairs in the loft. It was also a good time because after the bands played, they would walk around the place so people could talk to them. I talked to a few band members and just asked them how it was to be touring and let them know what I thought about their music, things like that. The show lasted from 5:30pm to 12:30pm. When I got back to Jill's house I was pretty tired from standing the whole night. It felt good to lay down, but it took me awhile to fall asleep. We woke up at 10:00am, ate breakfast, and headed back to Cortland. Overall, it was an awesome time.
