Jon and I had tickets to see Death Cab For Cutie in Davidson this past Thursday. We had decided awhile ago that we'd just stay the night down there and go to Ikea and the outlets the next day.
We left earlier than expected on Thursday, so we had a good deal of time to kill before the show. We decided to go ahead to the outlets then, and check into our hotel before driving up to Davidson.
We never made it past the hotel.
Sad, huh?
We talked about it, and decided that since we had an evening alone, we wanted to spend it together rather than jostling with a bunch of kids in a hot arena not being able to talk to each other.
So yeah, I'm old. Well, we both are.
On the upside, though, we got a lot of cute clothes for Ella for next winter and picked up some household stuff at Ikea (which was a MADHOUSE, even after being open for 2 months and going there on a weekday).

Arcade Fire!
Jon and I just got back from their show, which was also an Obama rally (sadly, he wasn't there... we were kind of hoping he might show up, LOL).
The show was FANTASTIC. It was the first time we'd seen them, and they really were tremendous. There were probably around 300 people there all together, so not crowded at all.
If you've not seen them and ever get the chance -- GO.
We didn't get have to pay for tickets, but if we had, it still would have been worth it.
Jon and I stopped to meet Win Butler (the lead singer) after the show, and had our picture taken w/him. Nice guy -- and VERY tall :)

2 concerts in 8 days.
A while back, Jon got tickets for us to go see Radiohead in Charlotte next month, which we're way excited for.
Then today, thanks to a heads-up from Jay yesterday, we got hooked up w/free tickets to see Superchunk (eh) and the Arcade Fire (WOO!) next week as part of Obama's "Change Rocks" campaign. FREE! We were downtown in front of the courthouse at about 7:30 this morning waiting in line w/a bunch of hipsters, which we are not. We were, however, the oldest people there.
But anyway, 2 concerts in a little more than a week ain't bad.
