Just pre-COVID some friends from high school who have a band that has a cult following were doing a reunion tour. One of them called and invited me to the local concert. I was thrilled to hear from him because they are fellows I love very,. I havent seen them in decades and was really excited to see them after all these years.
But as the night approached, I started to run through in my mind what lay ahead - the concert was in a big concert venue. There would be no seats! I'd be standing up. It probably wouldnt START until 11. God forbid there might be an opening band before that. And then after 11 I'd have to stand up in a room full of people, music blaring at full blast, for potentially hours. It was a reunion! Tney'd do multiple encores.
I was gripped by terror and when the night came, i sent my regrets that I was feeling under the weather. Which describes my permanent state post-non-concert.
I am glad I am not alone on the concert thing. Recently went to my first one in over five years and left well before it was over despite wearing some extremely supportive footwear. I definitely need a concert that guarantees I can be seated the whole time.
Claire! You did it! You figured out how to get your
witches together! I congratulate you! I am
so happy for your readers, who all love you!!!
I would be thrilled to meet fellow witches in the Philly area!
Did anyone watch the Woodstock '99 docu-series on Netflix yet. Yeah. The whole thing. Holy shit.

I have always been too old for outdoor music festivals. Now even for seated concerts I wear earplugs and it is frankly great.
