See Dave Matthews Band - CHECK

Morrigan and I made it to the concert, despite rain, traffic, and the abundance of walking morons!

And boy was it worth it!

The tickets were better than I thought they were going to be. We were 20 rows back, in the center. Ah, they were great!

And let me tell you what a religious experience this was for some folks. I thought at times we were in a Pentecostal church. There was some great people watching! I guess when you mix alcohol, pot, and Dave Matthews....you see the holy ghost or something. It was crazy! Morrigan and I couldn't stop laughing at some of the guys that were all over the place! Great fun!

And the show was just outstanding. One of the best shows I've seen! As a musician, I was amazed by the performance. And as a fan, I was amazed even more. They had a great mix of old stuff like Crash, Ants Marching, Warehouse and others. They played some great new stuff that I haven't heard yet that I'll be excited to get.

And they played for 3 straight hours! The show started at 8:30 and ended at 11:30. No breaks, intermissions or anything. We were literally standing up, having a blast for 3 straight hours. I loved it!

I can't define my definition of happiness any better than getting to see something like we saw last night. I get lost in the show and nothing else exists but what I'm experiencing at that moment; no work, no chores, no irritations, not anything! It makes me miss being a musician but appreciate the knowledge and love I do have for it. And as usual, each time I see a great show like that, I leave thinking I should get back into it. Nuts!

I can scratch "see Dave Matthews Band" off my list now, after 3 attempts. And thanks Mo for coming with! You made it a lot of fun and I'm glad you were part of it!
