Maroon 5 and Counting Crows Concert

The Monday after my last weekend of grad school classes, Brigitte, her mom, and I headed up to Verizon Wireless Amphitheater for a night of good music and fun times! Sara Barellis, Maroon 5, and Counting Crows were touring together. After being stuck in major traffic back ups (worse than I have ever seen for a concert there) and a long line at the will call, we finally made it inside. By the time we got in, Maroon 5 was about halfway through their show. We really enjoyed listenting to them and singing along. We watched as one of the men sitting in front of us chose to light up a joint and smoke with his friends. The people-watching kept us pretty occupied (lots of interesting people were sitting around us)! When the Counting Crows came out on stage, we lost some of the interest in being there. With a storm heading in (lots of super bright lightning) and only knowing one song out of the first ten that they played, we chose to head home early. We did have a fun night, regardless!!!
