Abstrakt: The article presents a discussion related to sense memory in relation to several concerts held in different parts of the United States. It highlights the surroundings and attributes of three very different musical milieus. These musical concerts were convened during the summer of 2001. Predominantly male crowd that bought tickets to see the heavy-metal group Godsmack in Orange County, California attended the first concert. The second concert was attended by predominantly female movie star contingent that turned out for Oscar-winner actor Russell Crowe's band Thirty Odd Foot Of Grunts in Austin, Texas. The third group of people who attended were family-oriented, county-fair audience, who gathered to see a Bob Dylan concert outside Los Angeles, California, at the Antelope Valley Fair & Alfalfa Festival. In the same way that each artist brought something unique to the stage, so, too, did the crowds and their surroundings, adding to the total experience, mundane and otherwise, of each event.
