Keane concert



Keane!!!


We went to the Keane concert last night at Kinsbury Hall for my birthday and had a great time. Chase is a big fan so we took him too. His first real concert. He knew more songs than either Dan or myself so it was a rousing time for the whole family.
Speaking of, we had an eclectic group last night to be sure! First we had gramps and gram up in front of us; she stood and he sat-- with his finger over his hearing aid the whole time. Then you had the primary president with her Dorthy Hamill hair cut totally rocking out with her two kids and husband. Dan was pretty sure they were headed to "This is the Place" Park after the show--or maybe they were coming from it--the jury is still out on that one folks. And don't even get me started about the old guy rocking out up front the entire time! I mean when you've got grey hairs coming out of your ears do you really think that you should still be headbanging? So where did we position ourselves? Well, we are the people that stand the entire night. It's a concert folks, not a movie.
Pretty mellow group in all. Dan was lamenting that there wasn't a little more headbanging going on, (besides the old guy of course). Hello, old man? Our thirteen year old son was there! Sometimes.... Thanks to Caitlyn for showing up and helping out with the kids.
Amazingly, Chase did not miss the bus this morning! That kid is going to need a nap!














Our favorite song of the night was crystal ball. They did a great job on it. If you aren't familiar with Keane, check them out on pandora, they are a poetic, easy on the ears alternative group. I find their music to be inspiring, helping the creative juices flow as I write while they play quietly in the background. That or I steal from their lyrics all the time, but hopefully it is the former. If not, hope they don't mind.










We came home to a clean, quiet house, so all is well in The kingdom of Bryan.
