Road trip to Gent with some nice tunes.

This Friday my boyfriend’s band some doing another concert, but this time in a different city and even though ended well we did run into a few problems which made the experience a tad more stressful xD

The concert was being performed in a city named Gent, which is about 1.5h away with car. Neither my boyfriend or I have a license so unless could catch a ride with someone we would have to take the train, which would make the entire traveling time at least 2h. Thankfully the drummer had space for us in his car due some plans being changed on his end. According to the schedule they boys were suppose to be there at 6 pm to set up everything, then sound check at 7 and the concert would start at 9 pm. Unfortunately the stuck in hard traffic on his way from work and picked us up almost 1h later than he originally planned, which already set us back quite a bit. On top of that, on our way to the other city there had been a car crash with a lot of cars involved which made the whole motorway slow for another 20 min. Because of all this, we didn’t arrive in the city until a bit after 7pm. Then we had to park across the water and with help from all 3 of us carry all the stuff for 350m. Even though we were 3 people, everything was still very heavy. but we made it in good enough time for everything to work out.

Despite everything, the concert it self went really well. They even performed 2 new songs which even I hadn’t heard. Everyone seemed to enjoy the show including themself. I was okay their photographer and tried my best to take as many photos as possible. I think they turned out okay. The concert lasted for about 1h with total of 11 songs. We stayed a bit afterwards, but not too long since we still had a long ride home. Thankfully the were no crash on our way home, so just smooth sailing.

When we got home we were quite exhausted and just eat something and then headed straight to bed. I’m looking forward to next time which will happen next Saturday.
