Mayer Concert... Some concerts far exceed their expectations. First off, shout out to the Mom's out there that are able to let loose and have a good time. The concert started off with traffic, but not as bad as we all anticipated (a plus). We ate at Ab's Drive In, pretty good food, excellent Coke, and I didn't get sick (a plus) We got to park in the Carpool parking lot, which is actually worth it, because you are closer to the exit (a plus). We won some t-shirts (a plus). The ticket taking people made us shake out our blankets, that's lame (a negative). They make you walk all around the venue to get to the grass (a negative). We were able to spread out 10 blankets for 5 people (a plus). The sun was out, but it was HOT! (split). USANA has no real bathrooms to speak of, you'd think by now they would (a negative). The opening acts were very good and got us in the perfect mood including some dancing caught by the people sitting behind us Check It Out. They should have gotten more, but I can't complain, it's just that we look like idiots just swaying in the videos they have posted (split, but mostly a plus). Molly shaking hands with John Mayer (a plus). John Mayer is an excellent performer with much talent that can't be ignored (a plus). We took the opportunity to continue interpretting his music through dance. I swear you'd think we were drunk, but we weren't ( a plus). The Moms were convinced they had a secret way of getting out of the parking lot quicker by taking the Tahoe up and over this dirt mountain, it was fun, but the gate was locked (a plus for the fun factor). Listening to Newsies on the way home (a plus). The first Sonic Drive In who was out of bananas (a plus). The second Sonic Drive In who had bananas (a plus).... we had banana splits (a plus). Getting home in the same looney mood that we left in (a plus). Going to bed at 1 AM (a negative).... At least we had fun (a plus).
