Imagine a field of over 50,000 people, once inside the gate you feel like nowhere else in the world. I could feel all the energy in the air listening the sound of the music in the background. I had this feeling that everyone is living in the moment. Music Midtown is one of Atlanta's largest music festivals. The memory is stored away in a cabinet of my mind, right on the top shelf. .
It all began when I was driving on my way to see my boyfriend, Tyler. We had been dating for about 2 years and his birthday was coming up soon. While listening to the radio I heard an ad for Music Midtown. Even though I live relatively close to Atlanta, I had never heard of Music Midtown before. As soon as I got home I began doing my research. Looking at the website, I was sure this was it. I knew not only would he enjoy it, I would as well. I could already picture how perfect those two days we're going to be. Two days of every genre under the sun, a trip into the city, and a chance to really bring us closer. I ordered the tickets for around $250 and that was that. In September we we're going to be there. After picking up the tickets, I anxiously drove straight to Tyler's house. I walked in to the house with a smile that stretched across my face and he immediately got excited. I handed him an envelope and I will never forget the look of excitement on his face. The countdown to Music Midtown had begun. .
It was September 20 and after a sleepless night, I patiently waited for Tyler to come pick me up so we could be on our way. Our first stop for our day was at one of our good friend's house to pick up a few things. While we were there we happened to get offered another ticket for only $20 by another one of our friends. Conner, one of my best friends, was on his way back to college at Georgia Southern when we called him and told him that we had a ticket for him. He had mentioned earlier that week that he really wanted to go but waited too long and the festival was already sold out.
