The venue and atmosphere were phenomenal for Aaron's concert which I attended with my lovely girlfriend. It was very upbeat and modern considering the age but also the popularity of his music. Aaron Carter became hugely successful when I was about 8 years old and you could tell at the age of the audience that those were his best years. The concert took place in Bloomington, Illinois at the Castle Theater on October 7, 2013. I purchased the tickets for my girlfriend's birthday in August. I loved the concert and being able to hang out with my girlfriend and see how much she loved the music made it a great experience. It was also the perfect time for a group of strangers to come together to appreciate someone and something they also enjoyed doing. My girlfriend and I absolutely loved it. Aaron Carter and his band performed a variety of old pop and blues songs. There were two guitars, a bass, a piano and a guy on drums. These instruments were the perfect combination for the genre. There are several composers for most of the songs sung by Carter. Carter prides himself on writing songs himself and does many things on his own, including writing his own songs. He wants to give certain music a different feel, so having a composer can change the whole feel of the musical experience. This will also fulfill what he wants everyone to perform by changing the effects of his music. One of the songs he performed at the concert that was the main feature of his entire tour was "Aaron's Party (Come Get It)". Not only was it the main focus of his concerts, but it was also a smash hit when I was younger, my age listening to it. Some of the composers who wrote for him were Brian Kierulf and Josh Schwartz. Another popular song that...... middle of paper ......the that was there just for Aaron Carter himself and also for the music itself. Everyone in the audience felt the same way about the overall concert experience. When Carter sang "How I Beat Shaq", the whole audience seemed to go crazy when he started singing this song. The show was very entertaining and overall a good time. There probably would have been more people depending on the location of the concert. My only complaint would be the small number of people in attendance. It connected in many ways with the audience simply because it was a mixture of older and newer music. I was also extremely impressed because the concert ended up being more than I had initially anticipated. In fact, it was better than what a concert would be like when he was younger. Overall it was a very good gift for my girlfriend and I had a great time!
