Gosh,
I must say that the evening with Interpol did not dissappoint!!
Got there around 6:30...sat at the bar...realized that
I was not the oldest or oldest looking there in the
least!! Many people there between 30-45 as well as those
there to chaperone/drive their kids.
Talked to MANY people...exceeded my 3 person
conversation goal by far!
The first band was not that hot (Q and not U) and did not start
until about 8 or so...which knocked Interpol back to a
9:30 start time...my usual bed time on a Sunday
evening. Had seats upstairs in the balcony
overlooking the mOsh pit...only because I did not want
to stand in the crowd of the Young!!! Turned out be be
a fabulous location. Was able to see the side view of
the band...right on top of them. Also had a GREAT
view of the crowd as well...which was quite
interesting.
Never sat down...swayed and bounced to the music for
the entire hour and 45 minutes!!! Paul and Daniel are great fun to watch...remnant visions of a bit of Elvis Costello going on!
I must say that
between the conversations with many that included the bartender, the usher, the interesting girl sitting next to H in the slinky black Elvira outfit that had seen the band in three other cities in one week and the other ADULTS that I met...the music, the
energy, and the $6 Miller Lite tappers (OMG!!), this
evening was the best I have had in a while. Not a let
down as so many times become my memory!
Very Sleepy today, however. Just dragging at
work...and hungry...for another night like this! The
Killers are scheduled there next month I believe...but
I am just gonna adjust my soundtrack to prepare for
the Psychedelic Furs...unfortunatley...that too is on
a Sunday evening. Sorta makes for a LONG work week!...But ahhhhh..it's all about the Pleasure!
