Early Birthday Celebration...

So, my sis Mina's birthday is coming up in about 12 days, I believe, she will be 14. So, I decided to get her a present early.

Yesterday, I woke up and started browsing the internet on my phone, and saw that OneRepublic (a really cool band) were going to play that night at the Orlando House of Blues(where we saw Allstar Weekend) and I sorta flipped. I told Mina, and after my dad agreed to drive us there, I decided to take Mina to it for her birthday.

When we got there, there was only 1 ticket left, and we were really disappointed, but we came back a half an hour before the show, and found someone that was selling tickets, so we bought them and got in just in time!

Since it was sold out, the place was PACKED! But we managed to get a really good spot right above the pit.

The concert was SO GOOD! I wasn't sure what to expect because I had never seen them in concert before, but I can tell you it was really worth the money I spent, they are such an amazing band in the way that they are so different than regular rock bands. They actually perform with a cello and a violin player, so it's a really cool concert experience.

Here are some pictures Mina took:






I would recommend their show for just about anyone, the would appeal to so many different kinds of people.I took this video of their performance of "Everybody Love's Me", which was the first song in their set, check it out, click here!

How neat! It's nice that you got to go in even after they only had one ticket.
