My mother and I are big time concert goers.
We are always on the hunt for a new show. It is really nice that living in Florida means a lot of big acts come to us. Sadly most of them are country acts. I don’t really like country music. The rock bands tend to go to major cities like Tampa or St. Petersburg. Luckily that is only about a two hour drive for us. So anytime an act goes there, I immediately start texting my mom. We agree that if a band we want to see is in the state of Florida, we will go see them. Driving isn’t a big deal. It is nice being able to take our pillows, sound machines, snacks and all our clothing possible. When you fly that isn’t really feasible. St. Petersburg hosts a very nice venue for the concerts. I honestly prefer that over Tampa. I am on a list that anytime an act comes to St. Petes, I get an email. My mother and I plan a concert season every year. It usually happens around the summertime. In Florida the summer cna get quite hot. I honestly wish more bands came when it is cold. The winter season is more favorable. Yes a lot of the venues are outdoors. But Wouldn’t mind wearing a coat vs sunblock and a hat. The intense heat and humidity tends to be a big issue after a while. That is the only setback to Florida living I would say. Other than that, we have ideal weather for outdoor concerts.
