Culture Shock: Death Grips And Social Anxiety

Similarities and Differences of Jamestown and Plymouth Plantation Many people were on an expedition to the New World of a better life. These individuals sought a new start in the Colonies rather than in Britain. John Smith wrote about his experience in Jamestown and William Bradford wrote it on Plymouth Plantation. These two places were alike, but they also had their differences.

My friends and I walk into a packed venue, and are immediately met by a young guy with shaggy brown hair and a skull hoodie, who holds up a white piece of paper with a hastily scrawled "$8" in the center. I pull out my worn wallet from the left pocket of my leather jacket. My hands strain momentarily to pull the snaps open, before my fingers find their way to my single worn 10 dollar bill. The man hands me two dollars in change and stamps my hand with a blue paw print, and I turn to face the stage. All the while a man has been screaming and singing on stage, not unpleasantly. The vibe of this crowd feels different from the normal one, rougher. They have a more hardcore look to them, and I've never seen Alexia's band play with one that yells, other than one time at a small coffee shop in which a single kid with an acoustic guitar spent twenty minutes strumming and screaming slam poetry into the mic, while my friend and I sipped iced vanilla lattes in the other room.

I wouldn't be doing the concert any justice if I didn't emphasize the buzz of the town on the day of the show. When my life long friend, and fellow DMB fan, and I rolled into the historic college town of Charlottesville, we could almost instantly feel the excitement crash into us (no pun intended). As we drove into

The only thing that kept us going was the hope that there would be righteous music to rock out to. We heard of all the funky artist that would be there such as The Who, Jimi Hendrix, the Grateful Dead. As we finally made it to the field after an unbearable fifty mile long backup of wheels. We saw the largest amount of people ever. It was packed. All that could be seen was a sea of people in bellbottoms and flowing shirts. Most people didn’t have shoes on. Everyone was setting up camp, whither that meant getting their van ready or setting up a tent like us. We patiently waited for noon to come around when the music would finally start. It took us a while to get to the performance area because of the mad amount of people that were in the area.

Rewind to six months earlier, it was Valentine 's Day and my parents were getting ready to give my sister and I our gifts. We were handed a small, narrow wrapped box that contained tickets to the DCX MMXVI World Tour. My parents had bought tickets for them, my sister, and I. This tour was said to be the final tour that the Dixie Chicks would perform and we were going to the concert in Nashville. Since I had a love for the group from birth, I was ecstatic! It was just a waiting game after we received the tickets because the concert was six months

The music was so lively and the people were friendly. I really enjoyed that the concert was literally put on for veterans, and between almost every song the bands would thank the veterans and dedicate songs to them. For tribute to the veterans, we did the Pledge of Allegiance before the concert began. I thought this was a very nice touch to get the crowd involved and to show our support to our veterans. I originally only went to the concert for Three Days Grace, but I walked out with two new good bands to listen to. All three of the bands put on a good performance. I had expected Otherwise and Adelita’s Way to only play for about 30 minutes each since Three Days Grace was the headliner, but they both played for an hour each, leading up to Three Days Grace’s two-hour performance. I thought Three Days Grace would play more songs from their new album, but surprisingly they played a lot of their old songs and just a couple of the new ones. My favorite song was “Never Too Late,” because it’s always been one of my favorites and it was amazing to hear it live. All of the songs they played sounded better than on their CDs because you got to actually feel the music and experience it in real time. The stage lights were set up to where they blinked with the beats in every song, and it was really cool to see because it made the music even more lively. All of the bands worked well together and put on a great show. They all thanked

The darkness is everywhere, the energy is flowing. That bass pedal thuds, the bass hits your chest. The flash of the strobe lights. The drums begin to blast, the guitars scream. The band is on the stage, the adrenaline fills the room. The crowd goes nuts, the music takes over, the mosh pits get brutal. The crowd surfers float above to the stage. The music is in everyone, the crowd moves as one, with every jump, with every pulse the metal runs through the veins.

I felt their hands land on my shoulders, pushing me forward and backward. It eventually made me feel dizzy, but once I help myself out of that sea of humans, my heart pumped very fast like I was on a roller coaster. After a 20 minutes of delay, the concert finally started. I screamed my lungs out as I clearly could not control my excitement. The intense and humid atmosphere fitted perfectly into the concert, making everyone enjoy the concert to their fullest. After the concert ended, I was exhausted but I could not believe that I was seeing the world star Bigbang with my own eyes. As soon as my dad starting driving we did not stop talking how amazing the concert was and how it should've been longer until we arrived at a restaurant to eat a late dinner before we went home.

A woman in a bright yellow vest was standing at the entrance of the aisle to help direct people to their seats. We walked up to her and she pointed us in the direction of where we needed to go. Once we saw in person where our seats were located, my eagerness was uncontrollable. Our seats were just a couple rows from the stage. I knew right then that this concert was going to be remarkable. Not only was I going to see my favorite band live but Joe's favorite band, Deftones, was opening for Incubus. So, we were both experiencing seeing our favorite bands

I went there because of the recommendation of my professor and I will never regret about it. It was in a small auditorium with a capacity of almost 150 seats and it was partially full. There was a small stage with a grand royal on the left-hand side and a drum set in the back. The concert started with an ensemble of jazz guitar playing old and new American style jazz music of famous and not very famous composers. There were 4 guitar players two of them were students and two of them were teachers. It was a big surprise for me that among them was also my professor Byron Delto. Although I knew before that that her wife is the director of that concert, presence of my professor as a performer was a good surprise for me. There was nothing special considering the interior of that place. The only thing that mattered were the performers themselves. As I found out later most of the performers were students and this concert was some kind of final exam for them to pass this class some kind of final project. For me was a great pleasure to participate in this big event in the very beginning of their career

My opinion of the concert it was something new for me, especially I have not been attending any concert in the US. Usually I focused on the kind of music because, it gives me an idea about the song and how beautiful is.

My general reaction to the concert was that it was very relaxing and enjoyable. I was impressed with the musicians and the way they performed. The musicians were rhythmically together and seemed very prepared for the concert. The visual setup was attracting because the musicians had a variety of instruments displayed, some of which I never seen before. The atmosphere was relaxed yet intense upon the performers, which made me more attentive. The performers seemed to have put a lot of energy into the concert. I

I never conceptualized I would be sleeping out in the streets of New York City. Living in the city with 8million other very diverse and different people, we see almost anything here. It's almost hard to surprise New Yorkers when we think we have seen it all. Some people might call me crazy, but I call it dedication. If I was told a year ago that I would be camping out on the streets to see my favorite band, I would not have even entertained the thought. But there I was on that scorching August afternoon, a day before I would actually see my idols on Good Morning America. I wanted to do it for the experience, not because I was just another crazy fangirl. Once I arrived at central park, the energy was buzzing. It was a place where everyone

The poems written by Emily Dickinson in the late 1800s construes her feelings about the events occurring in her time period through the extensive amounts of work containing a unique poetic language, grammatical characteristics, and cogent meanings. Released a little after the war between the states, the overall tone of these series of poems abides to despair and downbeat, reflecting the war’s miserable times. Emily Dickinson's series of poems provides a different viewpoint of the feelings people perceived during the war. The poem contains an anomalous form of technique in literature that exploits the melancholy mood and tone of the writing. By analyzing the poem’s structure and meaning, it helps illustrates a deep image of the scene
