Open Mouth

I love music and have been to 5,789,756,987 concerts/shows and all, but have never been a big “music geek”. I ashamed to admit I have not been any bit versed in who sings what/who’s who, etc. in the music world yet in my lifetime.

That is now going to change.

Let’s just say 5 minutes listening to these guys live tonight in an amphitheatre on a lake on a gorgeous night made me officially want to become that music geek and follow them around for the next, well- 5 years. Wow. The night couldn’t have been more perfect. One hiccup; me putting my foot in my mouth. As I was running around coordinating and planning and helping, trying to make everyone happy and everything just so (my company hired them to play) a young guy walked toward me. I smiled and exclaimed; “Hey! Are you one of my volunteers?!” To which he replied; “Nope, I’m in the band!”

GULP.

I apologized, we both laughed and chatted for a few. By the end of the night Johnny (the “volunteer”) the rest of the band and our crew were BFF’s. These gents were just straight up cool, fun, friendly, chill guys. They all could not have been nicer. We completely worked our butts off for this show and by the end of the night I felt like I had been beaten I was so tired, but what a fun job I have! So worth it the weeks of prep.

Thanks Railroad Earth. You guys were AWESOME!
