Opaque Lucidity

Goo Goo Dolls

As Matt said, we arrived in Indianapolis on Friday evening to actually spend the weekend together away from the house and all the work that we still have to do by the end of summer. On Saturday, we did a little shopping at a Keystone Crossing and checked out the new Mac store. It seems my husband has embraced the Mac as his preferred machine, while I have clung to my "gently used" Dell laptop. After looking around the store, I have to admit I am almost ready to upgrade to the new e-books. The store was clean, neat and the sales staff was young, hip and used words like "cool" and my personal favorite "awesome". While this visit was more for Matt, mine was only a few hours away. Later that evening, Matt & I attended our first Goo Goo Dolls concert together. I have seen them several times, but never with Matt. This concert was exceptionally interesting because in addition to having great seats, I won a ticket to a pre-concert Meet & Greet with the band. For those of you who know me, you understand exactly how cool this is for me. I have been a fan for a lot of years and have travelled far and wide to see their shows. I met a lot of other fans who enjoy the band as much as I do, but were even more fanatical than me. The band was very nice and took time to shake hands, introduce themselves and take photos with each of us. The concert was good and they played lots of new material. Of course they covered the big hits, but the focus was the new album. I will have pictures from the show posted later, but here is the photo from the meet & greet! http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ggdphotos/detail?.dir=f506re2&.dnm=15bcre2.jpg&.src=ph Posted by Kelli at July 9, 2006 06:47 AM
