Went to my 15th or 16th Dave Matthews Band concert this past Saturday in Manassas...always an amazing experience even if you're not a fan. NO group of guys that jam like they do
While we weren't the oldest couple there (yes, I went around and performed a license check), I'd say we've finally grown tired of being pushed and shoved around, being burned by drunken girls' cigarette butts, having some 'yo scream for his buddy in his cell phone right behind you as you're listening to that one song you just love to hear live..."REX!!! I'm drunk and can't find you! *burp*" I've been so messed up at a Buffett show that I barely knew my name, but I ALWAYS could find my peeps in a sea of 35,000 screaming fans
Lightweights nowadays
We did get quite a laugh from the gang of college kids trying to locate their dropped doobie by the light of their cell phones though
Ahhh, to be young and high again *cough* I mean, yeahhhhhh...
We left early...too much conversation all around us and not nearly enough fans. I guess it's some status symbol to say you went to a show; I'd rather be surrounded by true fans like those down in front where I wanted to be...I'm writing Dave and requesting a list of just what I have to do to get THOSE seats...whatever it takes man, I'm a true fan
Next year perhaps...shamelessly stolen pics from a lucky sap that had great seats...

) I hear you - we only go to small places anymore. The big shows with the SP's are just too annoying. Never got into the band but your boy Dave was great in that Winn Dixie movie!
