if i'm lost please don't find me

Crystal Castles was amazing!

I bought my ticket about a month in advance and, even though, the hours before the concert were stressful my sisters and I made it on time. This is what happened.

I had told my dad that we were going to take the car to the concert and my sister and I was supposed to pick up our other sister at school. She comes out at 3:30 pm, so at 3:00 pm we looked for the car keys and we couldn't find them. My dad had taken them to work, on this day of all days. We had to buy a bus pass and go downtown to my sisters school, pick her up, and go to the concert.

Luckily, we knew how to get there. By the time we got to the concert it was around 5:30 pm. At 6:30 they started letting everyone into the Congress Theater. We were standing in the third row from the stage. I had an okay view of the stage. From 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm a DJ played.... music.... that started getting on my nerves after a while. Someone asked a security guard at what time Crystal Castles would come on stage and he said 9:30 pm.

From 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm we listened to Kontravoid, an electronic group from Toronto, Canada. I liked him, his music was interesting.

Then, the moment we were all waiting for, CRYSTAL CASTLES!

At this point, I was still in the front but squished in between strangers. If I would've been pulled up from where I was standing, there would be almost no space for anyone else to stand. When Crystal Castles came on, everyone yelled, "Alice! Alice! Alice! Alice!" Others yelled, "Ethan! Ethan!" I saw Ethan Kath at the start of the show when he walked on stage and started playing Plague. Alice jumped and the show began. Soon, everyone started pushing. Since I am short I was pushed farther from the stage and closer to the middle. I jumped and sang along to all the songs. At some point, my shoelaces became untied, but I was having too much fun to tie them back again or to care.

The show lasted until 10:48 pm. After the show, while my sisters and I waited for the train to arrive, a man approached us and asked for our review of the concert for an online magazine.

The next day I woke up sore, but it was all worth it. I would go see Alice and Ethan again.
