Geek Fiction - You Have To Be There In PersonsteemCreated with Sketch.

The lights went out. At once, 10,000 people shouted in excitement. The show was about to begin. Carl screamed at the top of his lungs. He waited in line all-night to get these tickets. He missed them the last time when they were in town and he was not going to miss them again. On his head was his hat with the bands logo, the one he got in high school when the first c.d. came out. He also had a shirt that he bought at the lobby. It cost him three time the cost of a regular shirt. As soon as he bought it, he changed right there, in front of everyone. A group of females cheered him as he did it.

A spotlight came on. Carl looked around. There were three stages in the front. Then he saw them. He aimed his phone at the band. He didn't want to miss a thing. He bought a memory card for his phone so he could record the entire concert. The first note was strung. Carl let out another scream. He watched the concert through the phone. The quality wasn't the best. The band looked like a screen. But he had to make sure he got it. He wanted to have the memory with him.

The concert was coming to a close. Carl could feel the pain in his throat from all his cheering. What a show. He lowered his phone to clap his hands together after the encore. But then he paused. Where was the band? Carl was looking at a black screen. He turned to the right. There was the band, live in person. Carl looked back to where he though the concert was. It was the screen where the concert was being streamed.

He heard laughter from behind him. It was his two friends.

"How was the concert?" one said with a chuckle.

Carl looked at his phone and laughed. He opened an app for concert tickets and bought one for a show that was in a town that was two hours away. It would be in a month. He was going to leave his phone at home when he went to that one.
