Concert review and opera drool
I went to a concert last night for the first time in six years or so. Link goes to my extended review, in case anyone is interested.
I kind of like going to things like that (concerts, operas, movies, plays) alone, actually. I can sit in the wayback without frustrating my companions, and enjoy it all on my own terms. I used to do it a lot more often, but then there was my partner, and now there is the Squid, and I just don't much anymore. I have other priorities, for the most part.
But if Damon Albarn's Monkey: Journey to the West comes anywhere near me - and I'm talking "anywhere on the West Coast" near - I will pretty much have to drop everything and go see it. Because hell yes.

I decided when I was first living in the city if I wanted to see a show or a movie I was just going to have to go by myself, because friends always flaked at the last minute. I always meet the most interesting people when I go to shows alone. I also like going to museums alone. I enjoyed your review.

Yeah, I don't do museums alone as much, but I really like movies and concerts solo, for some reason.
I am the flaky friend, so I can't speak to that aspect of it, and I actually don't really like meeting people - although I met a very nice girl at a concert once that I was too chicken to call after because she was obviously too cool to hang out with me - but I always feel good after I do something like that. Even if I do it with the baby, though that feels less and less like "solo" these days.
