On this last trip, I discovered the joys of lawn seating at concerts. I'd never been on the lawn. I love the rush and competitiveness of getting great seats to shows (for face!) so I've had my fair share of great seats.
But just this once, my little group decided to sit on the lawn at a massive show, and we loved it so much that we gave away our tickets for the next night and sat lawn again on purpose. Lawn is brilliant because you can 1. stand up and dance, 2. sit down and watch or 3. lay down and almost fall asleep - all depending on your mood!
I have one favorite memory from that last night on the lawn. There's a new song, one that I am really loving. All three of us laid down on our blanket, staring into the stars. When the chorus started (my favorite part) I reached my hand up to the sky and started to swing it left to right. Almost as if it were scripted and without speaking, my two friends reach up and start the motion too. Then we all raised both of our arms, swinging them in the air left to right, in unison, and to the beat. I have no idea what the people around us thought, all I know is that it was a magical moment. And every time I hear that song, I will immediately be back in that moment, in the most beautiful place, laying down, and watching for shooting stars.
