DMB Hollywood Bowl

It is 9:30 and I am still trying to recover from last nights show. What an amazing venue the Hollywood Bowl is. When you put someone like Dave Matthews up on stage it becomes the most incredible combo. Here is a quick run down from last night.

1. We ate at Mexicali which is usually star filled although none were there last night. My friend Jenny saw Jessica Simpson just last week and there are usually more milling about too.

2. Parking sucked so we walked a mile to the concert.

3. The line to get in reminded me of a herd of cattle except no one was moving. We stood in the same spot for 15 minutes before a worker came up and said they opened a side gate. We quickly ran to this entrance and were admitted in five minutes. It is nice to be at the right place at the right time.

4. Our seats were further back but centered.

5. Amazing concert!!!

Let me just take a break and talk about how amazing it is that marijuana becomes legal for the two hour span of the concert. It still amazing me how many people are smoking it right in front of police officers. There was definitely a haze of smoke hanging over the crowd as there always is at a DMB concert.

The night ended with a long walk back to the car and a quick drive home. As tired as I am I feel a lot worse for my wife who had to get up at 5 this morning to go to work. I don't think she was too happy when her alarm went off. If you have never got a chance to see Dave in concert it is worth the money and a late night anytime.

    Just went to DMB a couple weeks ago in Dallas and it was a great show. The one we saw was outdoors in a wannabe Hollywood bowl type place, and there was a cloud for sure - and it didn't smell like tobacco smoke.
