答案:I went to the Strawberry Music Festival this year in May 1. The Strawberry Music Festival was hold in Beijing and I am local here, so it won't take me a long time to get there.
Most music played in Strawberry Music Festival was Rock and Roll. But I am not a big fan. I just accompanied my friends there. So I had to clear up something: I liked the musical event not only because of the music but also the people there. For example, I saw the sweetest thing there which isn't something you would expect from a rock concert. A mom and dad brought their 4 year old daughter and the dad had her on his shoulders up in front of the stage. She had her hands in the air giving a peace sign and swaying along to the music. Rich Robinson, who hadn't smiled all night, broke into a smile when he saw her and threw her his guitar pick. Anyway, the general vibe of the whole thing was pretty fantastic. And at the end, the band seemed genuinely appreciative of the crowd's applause. And that's the funniest thing about the concert in my perspective.
