Before my license, I was restricted to just Chicago area shows unless I could find someone willing to drive out of state. After my license, I have traveled throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana with plans to throw in Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa, and Ohio with more to come eventually. ]]> 2018-11-09 15:47:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kbartou9/520ww2dq8pb8/wish/302621205 kbartou9 https://padlet.com/kbartou9/520ww2dq8pb8/wish/302622604 Milwaukee is 1 1/2 hours away.

- Meeting one of my favorite bands, and getting to hang out with them not only outside the tour bus but also during meet and greet.

- If given the chance, I will almost always buy meet and greet tickets. This can range from $30 to $150. 
- I usually save up about $150 to buy merchandise. 
- Out of state concerts usually cost more than in state, be suse out of state usually requires a hotel and more gas purchases. 
- Merchandise prices change depending on the area. The more out you go, the more the prices go up. Chicago has average prices, but Milwaukee is cheaper. 
- If I had to guess how much I have spent on concert tickets and concert related stuff between my first concert in 2013 and present day, I’d put the amount at about $5,000. Everything was paid for with money I earned, money I saved, or was a gift from family. ]]> 2018-11-09 15:58:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kbartou9/520ww2dq8pb8/wish/302627245 kbartou9 https://padlet.com/kbartou9/520ww2dq8pb8/wish/302630172 - First time I drove to a concert, I forgot to put the car in park. I turned the car off while it was in drive, kept my foot on the brake and tried to get the keys out. It didn’t work. My dad realized my error and to this day still reminds me to out the car in park everytime  we go to shows.
