I often feel like music and live shows are one of those great unifiers, meaning it can bring people together and forge new friendships. I was in Anaheim on Monday for Fall Out Boy, The Maine, Jimmy Eat World, and Daisey Grendae, and ended up making new friends in the process. The show was as great as expected and seeing it in an arena instead of an outdoor venue, definitely provided a different perspective, especially because my perspective was from the side, but all that being said, it was the nourishment I needed to make it through my week and I got a new friend out of the whole thing too!
This week seems a bit lighter than usual for us but there are still some bright spots to check out!
