The Old 97's & a mystery man!

My sister invited me to go see The Old 97's at Stubb's last week.  After driving around the block a couple times for a decent parking spot, we made our way in.  Ben Kweller opened for them, but we were late, so I missed that performance.  (But I really could care less about Ben Kweller...)  So when we get to the gate I hand over my ID and give the guy at the gate my ticket.  I peeked past the bar to watch the band while my "Under 21" bracelet was being fastened nicely on my wrist.  After being told multiple times in detail by the security guard that if  I'm even holding a beverage I will be thrown out, we walk in.  To keep you from having to hear every single detail about the show, I will leave it at this:
The concert was AMAZING.  They are  the best performers EVER!  I absolutely love their fun music and I CANNOT GET OVER HOW RHETT MILLER PLAYS HIS GUITAR!  He does this thing where he swings his arm around in a circle and I adore it. You gotta see them live.

What do you do late at night when a concert finishes? You go get food...

SO GET THIS!  

After the concert, my sister and I went to eat at Magnolia Cafe on S. Congress.  When we are about to leave, she says, "The dude behind you looks like he is one of those murder mystery T.V. show hosts." and I just was like, "Oh.." and didn't pay much attention to it.  So then we get up to leave and I look behind me and after a quick double take I just stopped and smiled.  :)  It was John Walsh!!!  He is the host of America's Most Wanted in case you didn't know.  We shared a smile, and then I walked away.


The night was awesome.  I was definitely on a high afterwards for a good 24 hours.  If only we could meet celebs and see amazing musicians every night, the people of this world would be much happier.
