Cara and I, finally, got to see Dave Matthews Band last night.  We actually looked at the date on our tickets this time, ha ha.  The forecast said there was a 10% chance of precipitation.  When you add wind into the mix the 10% is pretty noticeable.  I had to wear a poncho, not my favorite concert look.  But the rain stopped by show time.
DMB played great, as always.  Cara is the super-fan.  I enjoy them as well.  But she REALLY enjoys them!  That said, it was a weird night for both of us.  We, really Cara, buys tickets through the DMB fan club.  The seats are usually pretty good but the selling point is sitting next to other like-minded fans.  It's fun to stand the whole night and dance.  We didn't buy fan club tickets this time.  Our section sat for the entire night, with the exception of the encore.  It made it hard to get into the show.

The woman in front of me was stoned out of her mind!  She spent the whole concert slumped over in her seat.  However, that didn't dampen her boyfriend's concert experience.  He spent the whole time dancing and rubbing her back.  Like that's going to make her feel any better.  He thought it was cute his girlfriend overindulged.  Get her the hell out of there!  He waited until the encore to leave.  Classy guy.  Very odd.  Cara asked me what kind of drug I thought she was on.  I said, P.C.P., you know, angel dust.  Ha ha.  I don't know why but that drug always gets a laugh.  Cara told me if that girl was on P.C.P., she probably would have jumped from our extraordinarily bad seats, ha ha.

For the first three songs the seat next to me was empty.  Then, she came.  The most-annoying concert goer, ever.  She bumped into me and said, "I'm sorry, sir."  Sir?  I'm not a Sir.  I'm a "guy" or a "man" or a "Bob" but not a Sir!  She would scream, loudly, at the weirdest times.  The screams went directly into my ear.  When she screamed I couldn't hear the band!  She would also clap along but to her own rhythms.  It was crazy.  "Sir, do you mind if I smoke?"  With my poncho and hat on I must have looked like a narc.  She left during the encores.  She came late and left early.  "!?"  You can hear her scream at the end of the clip above.

BAND: 10 out of 10.  FANS IN MY AREA: 1 out of 10.

Have a nice day.
