The boys did not play to often on my Birthday.I find it kinda of odd because they liked playing holidays.End of May being memorial day weekend.

My wife and I missed getting tickets for the show when they went on sale, what with getting ready for our wedding. But thanks to an ad in the paper we tracked down a pair, for seats within a few rows of the back. I was happy as could be, but my new bride didn't like the dancers in the row ahead blocking our view. (And, come to think of it, I believe she got whacked in the face a time or two by errant hands, so she had a point.) She went to complain to the usher, while I sunk low in my seat, expecting a scene with the 'heads in the row ahead who just wanted to enjoy the show their way. But instead, the usher moved us to empty seats a couple rows in front of the soundboard. Sa-weet!

I really had a good time. It was a nice sit-down type show, but we had a few "twirlers" and that made it really fun. The only bummer was my companion. Not a true fan of the band and he brought me down from the serious high the band took me to. Didn't need any help, I felt the band was really on this night. Really close to the X! I miss these days!
