Here's a rewarding project for you to undertake.
Go back into your memory banks and try to remember all the terrific musical acts that you have found yourself present as a member of the audience. You will find this a most enriching experience. It will, no doubt, bring back all kinds of enjoyable memories.
...you will be surprised how many you have momentarily forgotten
Even more fun, is trying to remember who was with you at the concert.
