On Friday I went out to see a concert. Muse played in front of 30,00 + at the key Arena in Seattle WA. I have been hurting for funds but a friend had an extra ticket and invited me along.
I appreciate it.
Its times like that however when I feel the most different. When I am at home I am me. There is no one to compare or contrast against so I seem normal. When I am surrounded by people I enjoy looking at them and studying them; but I have no idea why music does not make me feel the way that they do. They jump and dance and sing. They touch each other and look at each other like they are saying that they enjoy the music. I tap my leg to the beat.
And as all this was happening in what seemed to be a very surreal experience with a fabulous light show and magnificent engineering; I am wondering at what wave lengths the lasers are operating at. I am curious as to how the engineer operates the light show and how they musician operate thier instruments.
I really really enjoy almost all of Muse's songs. There where some negative parts because a lot of their music came out during my marriage and it reminded me of said marriage.
But all in all it was an excellently produced show. By far the best choreographed concert I have ever seen. I loved the tribute to Jimmy Hendrix with the national anthem.
When I am surrounded by that many people I become drained. I am anxious that the chances of someone doing something stupid is greater as well as is the threat of terrorism. But apart of the uncertainty of what may or may not happen; .. the people and their manners suck energy from me and leave me tired after shows.
