my best and worst concert moments came on consecutive days
best-i traveled with a good friend of mine to see the black crowes on consecutive nights in richmond virginia at a club called the national,we traveled from the northwestern pa area so it was about 400 miles one way for us,quite a long drive but it was to see one of our favorite artists,when we arrived in richmnond we checked into our hotel so that we didnt have to try and find it after the show in an unfamiliar area,by the time we got to the club the line hadnt started yet so we were the first in line,within an hour two very attractive girls were the first to join the line behind us,it was great having 2 attractive black crowes loving girls to share 5 plus hours of conversation with us before the doors opened,when we finally got into the club the four of us went directly into the front row center since we had general admission tickets
the black crowes were amazing,they all looked liked they were having a good time and rich even managed to smile a few times throughout the set,they played for a solid 2 hours and the setlist was great as i had hoped and it turned out to be one of the better times that i had seen them,howlin rain was the opening band and when we got back to our hotel they were standing out in front of the lobby,after a few minutes of chatting with them the bass player and keyboardist came up to our room to hang out and party with us,it was the perfect ending to an already great day
worst-the very next day was pretty much the same as the first although we had met the 2 girls from the day before for a local bbq lunch before we all got in line again,we went in and again were in the front row center,i only had managed to make it through the first 2-3 songs before i had to go and find my seat because of an over indulgence of pain medication,i missed most of the set that night except for the last song or so,i was very angry with myself because i havent done something that stupid in well over 10 years
i will hopefully make up for it in detroit on dec 5th,ive got general admission tickets to see the black crowes again with the same friend and i will be leaving my pain medication at home this time,live and learn
