Getting Back Into The Swing Of Things.

Man, I haven't posted on this blog for quite awhile. Well here's another go at it.

I was looking at the Coachella line up this morning, and then I thought to myself: Do I really want to go? Aside from paying a huge amount for the tickets, how well will I be able to hear my favorite bands? Will I get tired from standing under the sun all day? Will I get annoyed by people who are doing idiotic things? Will people get annoyed by me when I do idiotic things?

And then I realized that I was getting old. Man, oh man.

I remember the last festival that I went to; it was the Gentlemen of the Road Festival with Mumford and Sons and all that. It was great, but by the time Mumford came up, I was partly wishing I was at home, relaxing in bed. That's not to say that they didn't put on a good show. They absolutely did! and I had a great time! Their cover of The Band's "The Weight" was a nice touch as the last song of their encore. But I hated that my neck and feet were sore. So I guess what I'm trying to figure out is if festivals are worth it, if I'm turning into an old man, or both. Man, it used to be soooo easy.
