Thursday Thirteen

I don't go to concerts anymore
I was never a big fan.. It's just not for me..
between the traffic, the cost of the tickets,
Then all the people feel compelled to stand up
blocking my view - I'm 5' 1" ...sit the fuck down!!!

THEN you have to listen to the jerkoffs
standing next to you singing at the top of their lungs...
I don't want to hear YOU sing

But when I was younger..
I attended a concert once in a while..
so here are 13 random concerts
I attended long ago
So don't judge me
I was young and peer pressured
into some of these...

1. Aerosmith with the Black crows - Saw them twice, both times - good
2. KISS - the non make-up years - I went with my brother,
he's a BIG Kiss fan
3. Pat Benetar - I was 15 - I posted about this recently
4. The Eagles - I did a post about this nightmare a while back
5. Crosby, Stills & Nash - It sucked, they played stuff I never heard of..
I wanted to hear the old stuff
6. Alanis Morissette - isn't ironic? don't you think?
7. R.E.M - I was a huge R.E.M. fan in my younger days...
"it's the end of the world as we know it!!!" anyway I was so wasted
I don't remember any of this concert, I remember being in the parking
lot, that's about it.
8. Metallica - 1997 best concert I ever went to.. I had amazing seats
AND I got to meet Jason Newsted (bassist)
9. Bryan Adams - I can't explain why
10. Bon Jovi - I was in 8th grade.. enough said.
11. Weezer - They played at a small club in Providence, I was feeling a bit
claustrophobic so I left half way through... and sat in the lobby to wait for
my friends - instead I sat and watched all the Brown University students
hanging out, trying to act hip and trendy - that was entertaining
12. Def Leppard - all the cool kids were going - so I went too
13. Sheryl Crow - I drank a lot - I remember a little.

and that's my 13
as always - I tag you all
