Concerts were never really my thing. I kind of grew up watching Gary V on stage and that was more than enough for me, hahaha. I never really loved any artist or band enough to pay thousands of pesos to watch them live...
Plus, I am an awkward turtle that only jumps up and down during super - exceptional occasions and can fall asleep at the wildest of parties. I'm also biased against "human aquariums" or venues for subconscious self - display. Like bars and concerts and stuff. Basically, I don't like it when people do things or dress up or talk or act in a manner that's obviously for show.
And that's why I was super happy at Wanderland. :)
Of course, there were still a lot of people that were so unconservatively dressed and others that were behaving in a way that's totally inappropriate while in public hahaha - but, there was just something about that... that was beautiful.
People were lying down on the grass, sleeping in the strangest positions, eating their dinner on the floor, and literally dancing like no one was watching. To my own surprise, it was precisely because of those things - because no one really cared about anyone else - that made the it all so great.
Imagine if we could have that every single day of our lives.
Ugh. If only.
The event reminded me of a school fair - except for the alcohol and the absence of a dress code, haha. There were games and booths and all that... but the nice thing about it was that it was basically just twelve hours of good music and good vibes.
There was no host that was trying to keep the audience engaged the entire time. There was no annoying guard that would kill the fun in the audience. There was no sign that prevented people from doing anything they wanted to do.
We were all kind of just there and that was actually kind of nice. I think people kind of need to be "just there" sometimes. You know, without the pressure of having to act a certain way or having to behave with a code of conduct in mind or whatever.
Anyway, the best thing about all this is that it was all free! Hahaha. This whole experience was sponsored by my good friend, Tim. (Hihihi thanks again!)
Anyway, I've got a whole lot of new music to download.
Hopefully, my attempt to recreate the chill Wanderland atmosphere in my room will be successful hehehez.
Happy summer! :)
