Music is everything. Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Music has been my greatest friend, my most genuine inspiration and most importantly my best motivator. Growing up I remember that I always used to carry around a walkman (the kind that can play tapes and radio too) and no matter what was going on in my life around me i could always play a song and find happiness. As I grew older the songs that I listened to turned into memories and I could always recall exactly the way I felt or what places looked like that made me feel so strongly.
I remember the first time that I saw a band live for the first time. It was at a house show and although the band was not even famous, the music was felt in the air. Everyone in the crowd stood and swayed to the music. I couldn't get over the feeling of standing in a crowd and feeling like I connected with the instruments as well as the whole band. The next time that I went to a show it was for a bigger band in a bigger stage. My sister drove out to echo park after school and although we were late we were still able to make it hear the last couple of songs. It was like magic, it was nothing like listening to the music it was about being able to really feel the music. The way the instruments seem to fit together and flow amazed me completely.
