Sometimes life gets a little crazy and you just need a breath of fresh air. It has definitely been crazy around here lately and tonight I got a little taste of that fresh air. James agreed to go with me when I bought some show tickets a while ago to see this new band called the WPA (Works Progress Administration).
The band is a compilation of people with lots of experiences in other areas - Glen Phillips of Glen Phillips and Toad the Wet Sprocket & Sean Watkins of Nickel Creek. It wasn't necessarily the best show I've ever been to, but it was the best show I've been to in quite some time because, well . . . we haven't been to a show in quite some time and this was really good.
I love music. I love live music. I love it when people are talented and play their instruments well. It was also good because the place we went to - the State Room - still has seats like it did when it was the Salt Lake Children's Theater years ago. I'm glad I didn't have to stand the whole time and was able to just sit and enjoy.
Good music. Good night. Thanks, James, for going with me!
You should check these guys out if you are interested in talented, entertaining, acoustic/eclectric, folksy, wuss-rock type stuff.
(We also went to the Rio Grande for dinner. Yum!)
