So the hearing in my right ear is a little fuzzy, my entire back feels like one huge bruise, and lifting my right arm above my head requires a herculean effort. BUT! It was totally worth it. I went to see Cage the Elephant and it was fucking amazing. I danced and screamed and waved my arms around and thrashed and got picked up and tossed a couple times too. It was one of the top five nights of my whole life. And I almost didn't go because I didn't have a friend to go with. So here's what I have to say to you my dear readers: That concert you want to go to? That lecture you've been waiting for? That...whatever other super important thing you're super excited about? Stop dreaming about it. Stop sitting and trying to come up with reasons why you should and shouldn't go. Just buy the fucking tickets. You'll find a way to get there. This shit works out. If you've got the cash and you've got the desire just fucking do it. You'll find a way to make it work. Don't miss out on fantastic fucking opportunities because you're afraid to go alone or you're not sure you can find a ride or you're just not entirely sure it's worth it. Trust me, if you dig this band or this speaker or this whoeverthefucktheyare it's totally worth it.
If I can see Bon Iver by May then I will have seen the three out of six of my top bands of all time who it is still possible to see within one six month period. Who wants to help me make it happen?
