the concert I enjoyed the most

 REC: Rock en Conce

REC is a music festival that take place in Parque Bicentenario in Concepción, the first one took place in 2015 and it have been keep going on until today. It begin at 11 AM and ends around 10 PM, usually take place 2 consecutive days, on saturday and sunday.

The whole festival is completely free and in open field, so you can come and go whenever you want. The park is next to a mall so you can step by the supermarket or the churros carts and then lay down on the grass to drink some beers or eat whatever you want, even smoke whatever you want. There are some cops around but because of the density of the people they don't nag too much. They are mostly for serious things, not for some drunken or high dudes.

The version I remember fondly is the 2016th. I was in cuarto medio and stay the whole day with my friends, dancing and drinking. The first day of the festival I experienced my first mosh in my life. And with nothing more than Molotov. I was preety drunk and without noticing, when Molotov start to play, I appeared in the center of a mosh pit, at first I got frightened and tried to escape, but was impossible. In my attemp to run away I almost fell. In that moment I thought I will die stepped on, but no, some stranger grab me firmly by the arm and pull me up to get up again. And then I realized that the same people that punch you and kick you will not let you die, because is a dance, not a fight.

 At the next day even more drunk, and with so much confidence about the mosh I waited patiently to my favourite band at that time: Chancho en Piedra, a chilean progressive funk band, that have a lot of disks and good songs. The environment in that concert was the best thing I felt in much time, the Chanchos Juanito (the band's pet) on the air, me and my friends drunken like nothing else matters, jumping and dancing in the mosh pit with no shirt and throwing beer to everyone. That was a really euforic party. I remember some shirtless dude, who was really fat and jumped from the fence to the public and we tried our best to make him swim on the people but he was so heavy that fell really quick.

At the next day I was with a terrible hangover and no voice at all. But I have not regrets at all.
