My second time ever....

At a concert that is. Cherise got us tickets to see COLDPLAY on Saturday night at MGM. The concert rocked! The crowd was really into it and they played all of the songs I wanted to hear. It said the start time was 8:00 but they didn't end up going on until about 10:00 because there were two opening acts. The first was a DJ who spun while some crazy hypnotic animation appeared on a big screen. I found it entertaining for a while but it went on too long. I have no idea who the next band was cuz they never introduced themselves. Funny thing is we only saw the first song and spent the rest of their set standing in line to but a t-shirt. What a mess that was. There were like 60 people in line and only two workers to help them. When people finally got to the front they took forever to decide which freakin' shirt or shirts they wanted. Coldplay played for about two hours.... they finished up with Fix You and then did one encore.

Anyway, I've been to two concerts now and I've liked both of them. No idea when my next one will be... probably in a couple years. Before the show we had dinner at a sushi place not far from my house. It was good although I've had better sushi..... I did like the saki which we ordered a small one of. I ended up drinking half of it myself and we had to leave the rest because Cherise did not like it. I guess it is an acquired taste.....
