Back in 2007 we stumbled across this pop-up* concert somewhere around Gov't Center in Boston, and stayed for a few tunes reveling in the serendipity. I probably should know who the band was...they were clearly professional even though this tune was a cover. Anyone who recognizes them please post in the comments.
One thing that jumps out at me is that I'm almost the only one waving a recording device around, a pocket camera in this case. Today the audience would be a sea of cell phones instead of enthusiastic waving arms.
We'd been doing our usual...lunch, perhaps a couple of cocktails, and were making our way across town on foot as was our custom. My weekend visits with Bri [that's her in the pink] were always a bit of a celebration. She reminds me that this trip was actually to help her move out and down to DC.
Four years later we'd be married. Good times. :)
* I do have to admit here that while I thought it a serendipitous happenstance at the time, that this was probably a staged event being filmed for a movie or some-such, and hate to admit it, the soundtrack may have been piped in and lip-synced.
Pity. It was so pure and energetic at the time.
But I for one 'won't be fooled again.'
