So Mike-the-Bellman knows a guy who knows a guy and got me free tickets to last night’s 311 concert. Paige, Liz, and I had a freakin’ good time.
Before the show started, the large screens mounted on the sides of the stage were displaying various ads. There was one for a specific brand of wine. It struck Paige and I as funny as wine isn’t typically a popular item with a reggae/rock crowd. Paige said, “Yeah, ’cause there’s nothing I like better than Chardonnay with my blunt.”
The opener for 311 was Matisyahu. I had never heard of him before, but ended up really liking his music. You know, once I got over the fact that a Hasidic Jew was rapping.
And now for the good stuff… I discovered too late that the pictures I took were a little blurry when transferred to a larger screen, but the following weren’t too bad considering the degree to which I had zoomed in.
The only disappointment of the night: Nick Hexum did not remove his shirt.
Fun Times!
Glad you had fun. 5 points to Paige for Chardonnay and blunts.
Matisyahu is pretty cool, good to know he got to open.

Love the lighting!!
What's a 'blunt?' (at the risk of sounding 'small-town'…wait…I *am* small-town!)
Blunt is a slang term for a marijuana cigarette, which is incredibly popular with the reggae crowd.
Thanks. For being fairly worldly and old, I'm really clueless about some things. *smile*
