Ever wanted to be a teenager again? Here’s a chance to relive the days of giggly adolescence when it meant everything just to be close enough to the stage to grab the leg of your favorite pop tart.

The Blog Mouse weeded out one of the better ones so you can experience the screaming, bobbing, and hormonally enhanced love fest of a pop concert.
