The topic I’ve chosen to write about this week’s journal is about a concert I went to this past Monday. Actually‚ to my surprise‚ it was not really a concert. The title of the event was Julieta Venegas with Rafa Esparza. Julieta Venegas is a very talented Hispanic singer that was born in Long Beach‚ California but was raised in Tijuana‚ Mexico. Rafa Esparza is a Hispanic artist that crafts bricks through the traditions passed on by Mexico’s history. Arriving at the event‚ the lights dimmed down and

DESCRIBING: AN OUTDOOR CONCERT At first parking seemed to be extremely overpriced; thirty dollars to park in a parking lot full of trucks with grills and coolers full of beer in their beds. The music from the speakers that were about a mile or two down the road traveled into my car as if it were a ghost and took over my CD player. Suddenly the rap music that was being played was taken over by Big and Rich‚ one of country music’s superstars. The blazing sun felt like an oven compared to

world‚ I chose two concerts to attend that were completely different from each other‚ in terms of performance‚ genre‚ and audience appearance. The first concert I went to was held in the Ted Constant Center at Old Dominion University‚ hosting Hip-Hop and Trap artist and songwriter Lil Uzi Vert. He’s categorized as an charismatic‚ hyper‚ and a naturally entertaining artist who young teens to college adults gravitate to due to the non-traditional rap he portrays.

As I entered the concert‚ I could hear the beat of the music‚ the atmosphere was full of excitement. I could see my band playing music‚ I could see millions of people in front of me! When I went in closer‚ it felt a little hot and uncomfortable‚ the place was burning like hell. It was an outdoor concert.

Jazz concert On Friday April 30 at 8 pm‚ I attended the Spring Instrumental jazz concert at Yuba College. This was the first time I have been in the school auditorium. There was a count off and the music began with nearly a full house. The first song played was "Won’t you be my neighbor" from Mister Rogers’ neighborhood by Fred Rogers and Mike Tomato. I liked the intro it started with Ron Hake tapping on the symbols then the trumpets‚ and trombones cut in and the music begins. This song made me
