There’s picnic blankets spread in patchwork squares
As people wait for music men in suits, with violins,
Their humming strings are buzzing with the bees
That flit between the sandwiches and champagne fizz,
Sipped from plastic beaker cups. And when that music
Strikes a chord, the wall of sound that rushes through
The audience that holds its breath, forgetting drinks
And canapes. They want to let that tide roll in
And let their bodies sing with joy, at the concert
In the field, as the sun sets golden on the stage.

You really capture the beauty of a summer concert here! It’s a wonderful experience, isn’t it? I’ve gone to several and there’s nothing like it. I hope this pandemic situation ends soon, so that we can enjoy some before too much time goes by…

I miss concerts 🙁 The one I had tickets to in May 2020 (not outdoor, though) was just postponed again to April 2022… 🙁

I’m dying to go to the O2 and watch a big act. I went to see Bruno Mars there and it was electric. I miss that.

Nice! I’ve never been to an arena- or stadium-sized concert… they’re usually too expensive, and a lot of the bands I would pay money to see don’t draw that big of a crowd. But someday…
