MEET SAMANTHA SAMANTHA MELE, MELE, THE CREATIVECREATIVE CONNOISSEUR___
PICTURE THIS...
YOU WAITED 3 HOURS IN AN ONLINE QUEUE TO PURCHASE YOUR FAVOURITE BAND’S CONCERT TICKETS.
(A concert? What is that? Do those things exist anymore? Lol). On concert day, you arrive at the venue 2 hours before showtime in your vintage band t-shirt. With your favourite snack and drink in hand, you make your way to your floor seats (YES floor seats!). You are now shoulder swaying in your seat listen to the opening DJ or performer. Your adrenaline rises, and your flutters as the opening act comes to an end (oh boy!! here we go).
The stage blacks out…
Smoke billows from stage left….
A quick snare from the drummer and BOOM drops the bass of your favourite song. You called it! You knew this was going to be the 1st opening song. You are taken back to the 1st time you heard the song.
Goosebumps trickle up your spine, your eyes swell with happy tears as the nostalgic memories fill your subconscious mind. You are dialed in. You are engaged. You are ready make this night a musical memory to remember!
