Greenday Concert
As I’ve mentioned before, one of the perks of having your wife work for a radio group (doing web design and development), is all the free stuff!
So I get a call from her about 5:30 on Friday night, asking if I’d be interested in going to the Greenday concert. I said “Why not?”. Overall, pretty cool show…lots of energy. I can tell I’m getting old because it’s now Sunday morning and one of my ears is still ringing a bit. In my defense, it was MF’ing LOUD.
This concert highlighted a pet peeve of mine. Whenever the singer makes any reference to insert-town-you’re-playing-in-here, the locals go absolutely bonkers. Now on any normal show, that might happen once or twice…but at the Greenday concert, it was something more like a million…or more.
Anyway…good show nontheless.

Yah, we went to a big radio festival in Baltimore yesterday, and b-more got at least that many shout outs during Good Charlotte’s set alone (but it is their hometown).
