I saw Relient K at the House of Blues in Chi-Town last night. The band were amazing as usual, but apparently I am old.
5 years ago at a Relient K concert, I would have been in the very front, right by the stage, and jumping for every song.
Relient K yesterday, my back hurt from standing for so long, I longingly looked on the mosh pit from the outside rail, and did not jump at all. And at 10:00, I was so ready for bed.
While the music was outstanding, it brought back memories of times when I was younger and was much less inhibited. Not sure, why, at the age of 23 I am feeling so very very old.
However, Ray is in town tonight and tomorrow, so maybe that will make up for feeling so old and lame.

Glad you went anyway.
It's all about perspective! right??
age is such a relational thing.......
i thought we were supposed to let go of our inhibitions with age. i know i certainly don't want to get more!
i remember taking my 5 year old cousin to a peter and the wolf thing that an orchestra in philly was having. during "intermission", they played music and little kids danced. ann was too nervous to go up by herself and i was too stupid to take her. as soon as the opportunity passed, i regretted that i had cared too much about what other people thought and now, when it comes to kids at least, i refuse to let that stop me. life is too short.
this is not to say you should've been dancing at the concert... goodness knows i know what it feels like to feel old. last night, chris wanted to go out at 10 and i couldn't stop yawning and wishing i was in bed. haha.
