Blue Rhapsody in the midst of Souza's March.
I tell you what I never cease to be surprised by the white hairs. Tonight Mist and I went on a little date to the concert at Furman. Once again, it didn't fail to produce another interesting experience.
Tonight's concert was over the musical stylings of Gershwin, Cole Porter, and the Marches of John Sousa. I love going to these concerts with mist because I can almost be guaranteed that we will be the youngest attendants by a large margin. What's even better is realizing that they don't know you're actually there. These QTips go crazy at this concert. For instance, at the end, Misti had long since given up on paying any attention to the crowd, and managed to miss a confluence of fleshy dancing I haven't seen since I went to the Booty club and saw this really big girl shaking anything that moved (and there was a lot that moved.) I agree that "Stars and Stripes Forever" is beat heavy tune, but immediately you would have thought the band leader would have started playing free bird. THEY WENT CRAZY! Clapping, dancing... I kid you not, they were marching like they were leading a band. I had no idea what to think and almost thought I must still be dreaming after falling asleep to one of their rendetions of Cole Porter's music, but I wasn't this was really happening!
I looked over at misti to see if she was watching this once in a lifetime Old folks rave... appearently, Kate winslett's thoughts on being a new mom were somewhat more interesting. I don't doubt she was listening, but boy did she miss out on the real show. Next time I'm bringing my video camera so I can post this phenomenon on youtube.
I love living in Greenville. Seriously, I am absolutely loving it!!! I think that if anyone wants to move from their hometown and move somewhere I'd suggest Greenville. Then again, I guess that'd depend on who was asking. Everytime I think about how happy I am here, I become even more impressed by Misti's wisdom to request living here. She really is a smart cookie.
Chris, you were right, Easley and Anderson are definitely no substitute for Greenville.
