I am getting old.

Dave Matthews just reappeared in the CD player and reminded me that I really enjoy familiar things, including his music.

(Living in Austin, Jeremy and I are always being trendy and edgy. (Stop laughing.) We've actually been discussing how we've come to crave a dinner at Applebee's or Red Lobster because frankly, it is EXHAUSTING being so cool all the time. We never eat the same stuff at the same restaurants. We are always at festivals, co-ops, farmers markets, and hipster places. Yes, yes, I know that we inspire everyone with our ability to stay ahead of the latest organic food trends, but cut us some slack! Sometimes I really want a bloomin' onion.)

I checked out Dave's website and saw that he and his posse will be in Houston this August. "Whooo!" I thought to myself. I clicked on info about the venue and saw that his show is at an outdoor amphitheatre. A video started to play showing about a BILLION sweaty young people jumping up and down and singing along with whoever was performing. The film was supposed to show me, random website visitor and prospective concert attendee, what a great time I'd have at this venue.

After watching the promotional video, I was left with one impression: there is NO WAY we are driving to Houston to get trapped in a parking lot with THAT many people.
