taerowynWent to the Lodo Music Festival. I was told that the gates closed at 5 which meant I had to hang around for 4 hours to wait for Cowboy Mouth to play. Turned out I could have gotten there anytime, but since the web said they played at 9:45 and they actually started at 8:15 it worked out ok. I'd have been pissed if I showed up just to catch the end of their show.
I got a strange reaction from a friend when I told her I was going to the concert alone. She was just so shocked and impressed. Why is it so out of the ordinary to do things alone? I go to movies alone, eat alone and yes, go to concerts alone. I do enjoy company, but if nobody can make it I'm not going to deprive myself of the entertainment just because I'll be *shudder* alone. Why do people find that so hard to do?
