Upcoming concert

  • Article

In the next 3 months, I'll be going to a concert. Since the period since I last attended a concert can be measured in decades, this is a big event.

I will likely be subjecting you to a review in the near future ("though the first 3 songs were full of energy, the drumming in the second set was almost pedestrian in its tempo..."), which I expect you will delete immediately. In fact, I will preface the title of the review with "delete this post:" to make it easier for you.

But enough of that. Who would pull me out of my decades-old retirement?

Please put your guesses in comments. A free souvenier program to the first person who guesses correctly. Oh, and no fair posting and ruining it for everybody if I happen to have told you already.

    My guess is Green Day. You were so favorable with your review of "American Idiot", it just fits.

    Depeche Mode? I know they're coming in the next few months, and I'd like to go to that one. One of the last concerts I saw was DM on the Violator tour (1990?) so the timing might be about right?

    It's got to be Paul McCartney... A decades old man for a man that hasn't attended a concert in decades.
