The Calm Before the Storm

Tomorrow, August 5th, is a big day. It's Dave Matthews Day in Connecticut and my friends and I will be departing early at around 10:30-11 to head up to Hartford for the show. You see, I'm no die-hard Dave fan, though I still enjoy his music very much on the right occasion. But going to a DMB concert is like a rite of passage for any Connecticut teen. You don't go to listen to the music, you go for the experience with Dave's singing providing an interesting and warm foundation on which to base your evening. Last year's show was epic on so many levels, this year should be no exception.
The Meadows is a perfect venue for it too. Half-covered seating, half open-aired outfield, its a mess and a paradise at the same time. You couldn't pay me to leave the outfield, either. Lots of stuff that can't be mentioned on this blog but would be hilarious if someone could find a YouTube or something of just the mass of humanity prancing around out there.

In any event, I'll be sure to give y'all a detailed narrative of the event.
