Ever since the late 1850s, people have been able to enjoy music with the convenience of recordings. From vinyl to CDs to digital audio files, now that music is easily portable, we can relish in prime tunes wherever we like. It was a November morning, the weather being much like what we’ve been experiencing lately, that I first put to use the headphone port of my pink polka dotted backpack. If you followed the cord from the conventional headset that hugged my head through the raw port, you would find a pale pink CD player. It would either contain the soundtrack to The Prince of Egypt, Justin Bieber’s One World, or the Jonas Brothers album. During the summer of 2007, I decided to make a major change in my life, and upgrade to a USB MP3 player that could hold up to 100 songs! It was smaller, lighter and had a screen the size of my thumb. Fast forward past Limewire and the iPod classic/nano/shuffle. Today, if you follow a pair of white, supple headphones, at the end of the cord you would most likely find a cellular mobile device/camera/MP3 player. Music is enchanting in every form, whether it may be through the small buds we stick into our ears or with the imperfections that you would hear on a vinyl. Nonetheless, we must remember to appreciate live music. Here are some opportunities for you to do so!
