What a marvelous end to a hard month and a sucky day.
It really was.
There are a lot of ways in which concerts are not ideal environments for me—primarily the noise, although the air quality is a significant factor; the crowd aspect is fine so long as there are seats and not just a free-for-all in front of the stage—but I think they are more than balanced by how good it is for me to have live music in my life, which mostly thanks to finances I haven't for years. I was going back through LJ/DW trying to determine the last concert I attended before this one and it may really have been the Bernie Worrell Orchestra in 2013. In which case I am now even closer than I had thought to seeing Stop Making Sense in person and just need to collect Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz.
