I did something out of the ordinary for me. Crowds. I simply hate crowds of people. I get anxious. My breathing increases and I lose some of my focus. But I have already been anxious. I sit around the house, watching TV and reading or listening to music. What I know is that I just needed to do something different. The Basilica Block Party is one very large outdoor music event right here in Minneapolis. I completed the online applicaton for Cities 97 and a day later I had a voice message indicating I had two tickets for Friday night. Wow.
The first two sets were great - Family of the Year and ZZ Guard. Matt Nathanson was the headliner at the Church Stage. He was engaging and entertaining. Fun.
Saturday was another day of music. Roots, Rock and Deep Blues Festival at Harriet Brewing, the Mosiac Cafe and Patrick's Cabaret. This time it was Chastity Brown and her band on the 89.3 Stage. She was funny and earthy and cool.
I am glad that I did both of these music events. I caught some flak as a result of this, but sometimes you just have to be true to your self. Be true to your self, too!
