Last night, Ann, Lisa, Steph, and I went to see the Police and Elvis Costello. We had all seen the Police earlier in the year, but the girls are huge Police fans and I really wanted to see Elvis Costello so again we went.

It was an outdoor venue this time at the DTE Energy Music Theatre (always be Pine Knob in my heart) beautiful weather and we were in the back row of the Pavilion we are too old for sitting on the lawn especially with Ann still recovering from knee surgery.

Elvis sang most of his classics and a couple newer things. What really got the crowd fired up was when Sting came out and sang and sang Alison with Elvis. I am just disappointed that he didnt sing Veronica by far my favorite song of his.

The rest of the crowd filled up when the Police came on stage opening with Message in a Bottle again. Nice performances by all. I especially watching Stewart Copeland preform.

After the show I picked up an Elvis Costello concert tee and the Rhythmatist CD by Stewart Copeland for Ann.
Mood:: groovin'
Music:: Veronica - Elvis Costello

Wait, you're telling me that there were people who didn't bother to show up for Elvis Costello? Are these people insane? I mean, I think I probably like the opening act for this show better than the main attraction. Now, why aren;t they touring anywhere close to me?

No they didnt. They were too busy drinking. The crowd that was there was very enthusiastic though.

THAT sounds like a great concert. Glad you could experience it.
