Holy jeez, I'm an idiot.

Three things about that:

1. I couldn't get anyone to go with me. It was the sort of guitar dork concert that makes people who don't know better take a pass. So I was flying solo and therefore had no one to say, "Cool! That show's Saturday night, right?"

2. Print-at-home tickets. It was still just a PDF in My Documents.

3. The aforementioned date.


None of those make it any less stupid, but perhaps more understandable.

1. As a guitar dork you shouldn't have needed the reminder...

2. You do have a printer don't you?

3. I guess getting laid will have to be consolation enough...
 
Went to Sweetwater's Gear Fest last year. Had the day all planned out, what i was going to see when. First, best thing was first day, first day. Marcus Miller. Walked up to the place he was doing his thing, just as he, and everybody that went to see him were walking out. I forgot Sweetwater is in INDIANA, and thus a different time zone.

He said date, but never mentioned getting laid. HE BETTER HAVE GOTTEN LAID!


If he did not get laid, then, damn! you are an idiot! :grin:

1. Absolutely true. No excuse. The irony is that I was waxing lyrical last night at dinner about how cool that show was going to be. :facepalm:

2. I do, but:

a) I just bought a new computer last week. The PDF was on the old machine and while I copied my old files to the new computer it just wasn't in a prominent place. Plus I haven't connected the printer yet.

b) I just moved into a new house last week. Getting unpacked and settled has taken most of my focus.​

3. *sheepish grin*

I did something similar years ago. Nashville's on Central time and Louisville is dead north of Nashville, so why wouldn't it be on Central time too? I missed an hour of a Blue Oyster Cult show that way.
 
I'm failing to get the disconnect between "couldn't get anyone to go with" and "had a date"

Look, just admit that your best polyester shirt was at the cleaners, and you didn't want to be THAT GUY in the front row wearing cotton.

1. Just moved here within the last six months. My social circle is still considerably limited.
2. I started seeing her after I bought the ticket.
3. This is New Mexico. "Formal" means a crease in your jeans.
 
Has nothing to do with being formal. Mr Dave never hits the stage without a polyester shirt, and wearing polyester to his shows is a tradition.
