stormkeeper_lovedorisI was recently talking with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
denisia about rock concerts. The older I've gotten, the less fun they are for me since I'm often fatigued and all the noise and commotion aren't easy on me either. (Total introvert - it's true). But we were talking and I realized that I want to see the B-52's once more before they retire. Twenty years ago, their posters adorned my bedroom wall. Since "Cosmic Thing", I've been a fan even though it's been a while since I was a die-hard fan. They are even partly the reason why I decided to give vegetarianism a go (and I've kept with it for 20 years).
denisia mentioned that they were coming to Chicago in August, and I decided to do some checking. They are playing the House of Blues, which can be tough because mostly you just stand at the House of Blues. But I called the venue and if you purchase a dinner package, you get a bar stool you can sit on for the whole show. I should be ticked off at how expensive it is, but I'm not - I'm actually just thrilled that I am getting to see my favorite band one last time!! I don't know when they'll retire, but given that the band members range in age from 51-60, I can't imagine they'll keep going forever. Doris said she'd be glad to go with me even though she's seen them with me twice before. This will be my 7th B-52's show, though last time I saw them it was 2003 or '04. So I am happy and excited!
And thank youdenisia!
