After the exiting the pit, I wandered around the entirety of the park, absorbing and taking in the energy of the music and the sights around me..
Everywhere I looked, there were reminders of what makes this fandom unique: old friends reunited, new friendships being made, and stories being shared of memories from decades ago -- or even just from the show before! It felt profound to me that in that moment, fans had connected with each other across decades and generations through the shared love and adoration of the music.
But what really struck me the most was the stark contrast between the passage of time and stillness. The band has evolved, and so have we in a sense. We have all grown older together.... Yet in that moment as we were all gathered together in that park, everything seemed suspended in time. I was so inspired by it, I wanted to see if I could capture that.
How did I do?
