The best part of my spring break was
driving down with my brother to Carrboro, North Carolina to see one of his
favorite bands. The band we went down to see was called Tinariwen. The drive
was four hours, but I slept for one, which was great. When we got there, we got
some food, than met up with a friend of ours. She took us to the Duke
University Campus and we walked around there. We saw this church that that was immensely
large. It looked medieval. When we were driving back to the hotel we were
staying at we listened to the band that was coming before Tinariwen, and they
were called The Melodic. The first song we listened to was called On My Way,
and it was really good, so it got us more excited for the concert. When we
arrived to the concert, we were the first ones, but were accompanied by other
folks right away. We went in at around seven, and came out at eleven. The best
part of all, though, was getting to help both of the bands load up their gear
and talk to them personally. Since that happened, Tinariwen and The Melodic are
both one of my favorite bands now.
