I went to the show last night. Although; I didn’t know any of their songs, they sounded really great. They only played about 45 minutes; Paul’s bass broke. In the middle of a song; he put the bass on the ground, the band finished the song and the lead singer says..”Sorry guys; we don’t have a bass, we are done.”

Strangest thing ever; I am assuming they were supposed to play longer. If you get a chance to see them; I recommend you do.

Damn! They're rockin'!

So frustrated. Get up anyway.
So complicated. Changes every day.

So the darkness fades
And the light, will come shining through.

Yup, I was there! They totally rocked as usual! There's a video on youtube of that guy in the suit that danced to the Prince cover. Funny stuff!

Did you bring your son? Tons of kids there. Call me crazy, but if you actually posted a photo of yourself on fb, then I might actually recognize you and say hi at the events we both attend! I swear I don't bite! :)
