Dave Matthews Band Night

Last night I was fortunate enough to get to go to a DMB concert at Staples Center AND to make it even better we had great seats, Section 119, Row 2. Basically we were nearly eye level about 30 yards back if that. I went with Kevin, a guy I met thru Tami & Carl out here who really treats me well. We went to J's Lounge for drinks & dinner before hand. I had amazing margaritas, pizza & tuna tartar.

After dinner we had a leisurely walk to the concert. Dave started to play around 8:30 and didn't stop for 3 hours! I was not able to take my camera nor did I even take my phone so I have no pictures to share, they are in my head. It was very heart warming when DMB first came out b/c the crowd was shouting "Roi, Roi, Roi" in honor of the band member that passed away on Tuesday. You can check out my neighbor's blog for pictures from the night before, looks like his seats were just on the other side of the arena.

It was a great last night out in the big city before my trip back to KS. My dad gets here today in a few hours. Gotta run so I am not late picking him up!
