Last night the hubs and I went to a newish for us venue, the San Jose Civic, and saw REO Speedwagon. I had seen Steely Dan there many years ago with my girlfriend but Bill had never been. It is another one of the smaller venues (about 2500 seats) so almost any seat is a good one.

Interestingly, the opening act was called Sir, Please and two of the guys in that band were actually Kevin Cronin's twin sons.
After he told us that, I realized there was a little family resemblance.
I tried to find a song they sang that had anything to do with today's #SLS prompt of Lean/Sit/Stand and the closest I could get was this one:
She doesn't like the tough guys
They think that they can do anything they please
But they're gonna get a surprise
When she brings them to their knees
They think that they can do anything they please
But they're gonna get a surprise
When she brings them to their knees
'Cause she doesn't like the rough guys
They think they can have any girl they choose
They've got tricks but my baby got wise
So in case you haven't heard the news
They think they can have any girl they choose
They've got tricks but my baby got wise
So in case you haven't heard the news
She doesn't like the tough guys
She doesn't like the rough guys
So find some one you own size
'Cause she's not afraid of you
She doesn't like the rough guys
So find some one you own size
'Cause she's not afraid of you
She doesn't like the tough guys
She says that they've got brains all where they sit
They think they're full of fire
She thinks they're full of shit
She says that they've got brains all where they sit
They think they're full of fire
She thinks they're full of shit
She doesn't like the tough guys
She doesn't like the rough guys
She's gonna call your bluff guys
And you better believe it's true
She doesn't like the rough guys
She's gonna call your bluff guys
And you better believe it's true
She don't like you
She doesn't like the tough guys
They think that they can do anything they please
But they're gonna get a surprise
When she brings them to their knees
She doesn't like the tough guys
They think that they can do anything they please
But they're gonna get a surprise
When she brings them to their knees

Here's one I got last night, "Take It On The Run:"
We have no other concerts scheduled for this year but it was a good one to end the season with. Happy Sunday!
Sounds like a good sized venue - some are just so huge!
ReplyDeleteIt really is and the ticket and concession prices are not as expensive either.
