Moving on into early adulthood, I experienced many changes with respect to what I was listening to. New worlds were opening up, my horizons were expanding, my tastes were gaining more depth and flavour, and many ideas about what music was were being blown apart.

Follow OBM on <a href="https://twitter.com/TheRobEsse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> and <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/therobesse/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Instagram</a> -   Have you ever gone to a live concert on your own? If yes, then good on you for making the decision to actually go and experience the music of an artist or band that you love. Don't miss out just because someone else's schedule doesn't align with yours or no one else likes a particular musician that you do. Go your own way! (Pardon the Fleetwood Mac reference).  Live music is one of the great things that you can experience, irrespective of whether you are attending solo or with friends. When you go solo, you are not really alone anyway, because the minute you arrive at the venue you are surrounded by people. You are part of a community that wants to be there, a community of music lovers who are all there for the same reason and to experience the same thing. Don't hesitate the next time someone is playing live in your city, if you really want to go and see them. Get there, be there, and be part of the real thing that is live music.
