PTX Concert

Part of mine and Caleb's Christmas present was to get to go see one of our absolute favorite groups. They are an a capella group called Pentatonix (or PTX for short) that is known for doing modern pop songs and changing them up a bit. Everyone in the group is musically gifted. I highly enjoy their music, which they clean up and make more appropriate most of the time.

When we went to buy our tickets, our area had already sold out, so we ended up driving to Wisconsin and staying the night there.

Dad took the day off work and immediately after my piano lesson we drove up to our hotel. The concert was not until later that night, so once we got to our hotel, we had a lot of spare time. I started going stir crazy, so my parents decided we would walk across the street to the three story, indoor mall. It was really neat! The mall had a walkway across the street with a coffee shop inside and lots of quaint little stores, as well as larger, more well known stores. After walking around a while, we went to dinner near our hotel. Dinner was delicious! We went back to our hotel to get ready for the concert.

We had to stand inside the theater doors for quite a while before they let everyone in to be seated. As soon as we got in, Caleb and I each picked out a t-shirt from their merchandise table. We were really glad we did so before the concert, because afterwards the lines were incredibly long.

It felt like forever that we sat in our seats waiting for the show to start. Once it did, it was astonishing. After two and a half hours of amazing a capella, the show was over. Then we started the long, crowded journey down to the main floor so we could walk back to our hotel, which was only a few blocks away. Over two thousand people were at the show and this meant that we had to push our way through over two thousand people to make it to the doors.

It was only my second big concert, so I was really excited to get to go. PTX did an amazing job, even though they did mess up a few times, I still thought it was really cool!
