I love live music, I love festivals and I love concerts in general. I don't care if it's some troubadour playing covers, folk music or straight up rap/metal/rock as long as he/she/they are able to bring some kind of special atmosphere to get whoever is there in a great mood and is doing a great job. I hate DJ sets and playback though, shit's lazy as fuck and makes me lose a little bit respect of what they do if I'm going to be completely honest.

The past 6 months I've gotten involved with festivals in my local area, I've helped setting it up, planning and worked backstage for 3 events (2 festivals and 1 concert). It's mostly been up and coming Norwegian artists since the festivals in my area just started popping up 2 years ago and it's still in the process of getting started to get economy rising so we can book better and more known people in the future.
Yesterday Boney M was playing, that's the only world famous group I've gotten to interact with so far. Beside of that there's been some respected Norwegian underground rappers and things like that. I managed to get the first rappers that started to rap in Norwegian booked, they're considered legends for that and it was cool seeing them play specially since I had a hand in getting them there.

I think it's dope to help out with the local music scene (my city has been horrible with clubs and live music the past 20 years and it's finally picking up again now), get people involved and party/interact with people I otherwise wouldn't even talk to that genuinely loves music is something I can recommend to everyone.

Beside of that I love the atmosphere smaller clubs in Oslo, Norway possess when rappers come to them as opposed to arenas that can host several thousand people. When JMT played in a club that could only hold about 800-1000 people the atmosphere was crazy, and a lot of the people there knew the lyrics to most of the tracks. I saw JMT a couple days later at a different venue that could hold a lot more people, it wasn't even close to being the same experience.
Same thing when Necro came to a place that didn't hold as many people either. Odd Future was amazing live too, I saw them at Hove (huge festival in Norway) they had the crowd control on lock and knew how to entertain them. Røyksopp, Slagsmålsklubben and Deadmau5 although there being a lot more people managed to do that as well.

The only thing that's been disappointing live so far was Master P, Pharaohe Monch and Ghostface, not because they did a bad job. It was dope to see them and I'm glad I went, but most of the crowd was horrible and didn't even seem to know who they was.
