So this past year every time Neon Trees has come into town (3xs that I was aware) I have not been able to go see them, until last Tuesday. I have loved them since February and just by chance I saw they were playing at SLCC last week and luckily AJ said yes she would go with me. Neon Trees come to Utah often because they hail from Provo and even though they are growing in popularity they remember where they started off and are proud of it.
First let me just say I am glad I am no longer in high school. So the majority of the people attending were probably college students, but the conversations going on around us while we waited in line to enter just made me think high school. Yes, AJ and I were towards the older end of the scale of people attending but we think we found around five people older than us.
Because it was a small venue we had great seats. In the end the concert was not one of my favorites I have attended this year but still enjoyable and I am really glad I went. What I liked: the lead singer loves the crowd, they have a girl drummer (I wonder if Watts was her inspiration), and of course their music. What I did not like: the stupid SLCC mascot that would not get the hint to get off the stage and the blaring lights that concerts now must have to show that they have succeeded and can afford special effects.
