I woke up with a little bit if a hangover from last night. I emphasize a little bit…
I went with Joe to dinner at Dasher’s in Homer before seeing Citizen Cope at The Homer Center for the Arts.
First of all, the food at Dashers was great. The atmosphere does not match the quality of the service or the food. It is a real gem of a restaurant. Bill Burdick has been telling me to go for years. I am happy to have finally made it there.
Then we went to the show. I have seen Citizen Cope before at this same venue but this was a different experience. I was quite irritated by the crowd. It seemed as if a bunch of locals decided to go who perhaps did not even know who Citizen Cope was OR they just knew one of his newer upbeat songs or the Santana version of Sideways. Regardless, there were some terrible people in the crowd. They heckled him, talked incessantly during the music, and laughed openly at some parts of the performance.
I will admit that I was a little tipsy and a little high, so I could have been over analyzing the crowd, but it was an annoyance either way. It did not ruin the experience, though. He is a fun performer who knows exactly who he is.
Courtney Chase was also at the performance. In fact, she bought the tickets. I got the chance to explain to her how different massage felt the last few days. It’s as if my short time with yoga has altered my awareness of the body in a functionally positive way. I will try to explain this more later.
