I love to listen to the artist before I go to the concert to remind me of all their songs. My husband will sometimes make a songlist and share it with me before a concert.

My husband and I have gone to many concerts over the years. Some concerts were incredible, some were disappointing. Concerts make for a fun date night, and they're also great for solo travelers. Whether you go locally or plan a trip around it, we did...
