went with my brother and some friends after leaving work early to be there. we were all in the cosmos and my younger brother took a trip into the outer limits, if you know what I mean. unexplainable occurrences were on the menu and since music feeds the soul, we dined on an exquisite show enhanced by good people and the kindest of the kind of everything.

GOT IN LINE FOR TICKETS EARLY AND WAS ABOUT 10 PEOPLE FROM THE WINDOW AND I STEPPED OUT OF LINE TO MAKE SURE MY BOSS WAS AT THE RESTAURANT TO OPEN THE STORE THAT DAY 'CUZ I HAD TO GET TICKETS FOR THE SHOW. WELL, NO ANSWER AT THE RESTAURANT, SO AS THE MANAGER I HAD TO LEAVE THE LINE AND GO OPEN THE STORE, YEP, I WAS PISSED. SO I DIDN'T GET TICKETS AND THAT WAS WHEN THE WHOLE "TOUCH OF GREY" THING WAS HAPPENING, SO SHOWS WERE SELLING OUT QUICKLY WITH ALL THE NEWCOMERS. NOT A TICKET TO BE FOUND ANYWHERE! SHOW DATE IS GETTING CLOSER AND I HAVEN'T LET MY BOSS OFF THE HOOK FOR ME NOT GETTING TICKETS, AND I WAS LAYING IT ON THICKER AS THE WEEKS WENT BY. HE FELT TERRIBLE ABOUT FORGETTING, BUT NEITHER ONE OF US COULD FIND SEATS. HE OWNED A RESTAURANT THAT I RAN FOR AND WITH HIM, BUT HE ALSO OWNED AN AUTO BODY REPAIR AND WAS THE BEST CORVETTE GUY IN THE MIDWEST, ONE OF HIS CLIENTS WAS A BIG, BIG RADIO PERSONALITY IN TOWN AND DARRELL ( MY BOSS ) ASKED HIM FOR TICKETS AND HE SAID EVEN HE COULDN'T GET TICKETS FOR HIS KIDS. NO WAY IN HELL WERE THERE ANY TICKETS ANYWHERE AND HE LOOKED ALL OVER. GRADUATION TIME WAS COMING SOON AND DARRELL WAS RESTORING A STINGRAY FOR THIS PERSONALITY ON THE RADIO WHO SAID NO TICKETS ANYWHERE! nOW DARRELL HAD BEEN WORKING ON THIS CAR FOR LITERALLY YEARS AND ALL HE NEEDED TO DO WAS FINISH PAINTING IT SO IT COULD BE PRESENTED AS A GRADUATION GIFT FOR THIS CATS' SON. WELL, NOW WE HAD HIM! " NO TICKY, NO LAUNDRY! " OR SHOULD I SAY " NO TICKY, NO STINGRAY! " I OPENED UP MY PAY ENVEOPE A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE SHOW, AND THERE THEY WERE. 10TH ROW ON THE AISLE, A GIRL THAT SAT BEHIND US TOLD US AFTER THE SHOW THAT SHE WAS SAD THAT THE TOUR WAS OVER (FOR THEM) THAT NIGHT AND THEY HAD TO GO BACK HOME ( TO PITTSBURGH, REASON TO BE SAD IN AND OF ITSELF) BUT THEY FELT BETTER BECAUSE MY FREIND AND I DANCED EVERY SONG THAT NIGHT WE WERE SO HAPPY TO FINALLY BE IN SEATS THAT GOOD THAT WE ACTUALLY HAD STUBS FOR!
