I was just wondering if they'd be understanding of the situation if I decided to go through recruitment. If not, I won't go through, I know being at all the events is important and for good reasons.

One of the unfortunate facts of life as we get older is that sometimes you have to make choices. Only you can decide what is the most important thing for you.
A Chapter should understand why someone misses an event if it is school related. But harsh truth time, skipping out to see a concert won't go over well. That says you aren't even a member yet and are already showing you aren't committed to the responsibilities and time commitments of the Chapter. It won't matter if you hadn't seen your friend in 10 years, all they will remember is you blew off Recruitment for a concert.
