In the summer I managed to get to the concert of your favorite band in Moskvu.Ya was very happy before the trip, only when I bought a ticket. "Green Day" appeared on June 21 in "The Olympic". All morning I was already in anticipation of this event, although the concert started at 7 pm only. At 16:00 I got on the train to Kazan railway station, and then I went on the subway. When the concert began, at first it was hard to get used to the loud sound, but then I started jumping with the crowd in the rhythm of the music.I finally saw their idols live! At this point I was very pleased. And at some of the songs I was crying, I could not hold back emotions. More precisely, crying with happiness that I hear them live. I finally saw Billie Joe Armstrong.
