I like them crazy

I wanted to go but at the same time I wanted to just stay home. I wanted to go because I already bought the ticket, they are an amazing band and she would be there. I didn't because I was cold, the ticket was cheap, it was a hassle for others and she wouldn't be there and we couldn't eat together and play together. They insisted I go, so I went. We rushed even though we had plenty of time and we left during the second band because they needed food and I left them to quickly get a drink but had to stay upstairs to consume it and I felt terribly misunderstood.

It is the second time I have seen this band. The first time was in LA for free at a bar I don't remember and I loved them instantly. She played the organ and he the drums and they both sang with their solid voices, the epitome of complimentary. I thought she was cuter back then in her jeans and sneakers and her dark blond hair in a practical pony tail. I remembered thinking I wish I was her and if I was I would dress that casually too. This time they were just as brilliant in sound but she wore a dress and heels and her hair was bleached blond and unruly. She was still totally cute. Just different.

I think it must be the perfect marital situation. I am sure, working together to create music, they must fight like mad. But every time on stage I imagine them falling even deeper in love as they listen to the fervor resonate from their spouse's vocal cords and see the passion spread throughout their spouse's features. A perfect and synergistic union. They are a lucky couple. Admiration has to be a powerful nfuel for long-lasting relationships.
