What Did You Not Do This Weekend?

I got a phone call from a friend of mine Saturday night.

This was no ordinary phone call, it was an invite to go to a little whole in the wall shit-dive of a bar.

This was no ordinary night at said shit-dive bar.

The said shit-dive bar was closed to the public for the night and only a 100 or so of the bar owners closest friends were invited over to enjoy a music filled evening with Greg Allman. Let me say that again... GREG freakin' ALLMAN!

What did I do instead? Instead of going out and listening to G.A. up close and in person, I stayed home and boiled 3 or 4 pounds of shrimp, hung out with my wife and kid, played PlayStation, watched TV, and went to bed around 11:30. Oh yeah, and baby-sat for the friend that invited me to go.

On a entertainment scale of 1 to 10, I'd have to say my Saturday night still rated a high 7.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to sound like man/dad/hub of the year for staying home. To be frank with you if it was somebody like Liz Phair, or Poe, or Garbage, or Dave Matthews I would've been there throwing my underwear up on the stage. But Greg Allman? Nah. I did alright by staying home. Let me back up, Dave Mathews as much as I like his music is still not BVD worthy.

Liz Phair on the other hand....
