Friday night I took Mom to see her favorite comedian, Lewis Black, at Caesar's in Atlantic City. After a bit of her hesitation about being washed away by a hurricane, I got her into the car and we were off. We got there around 8 and the doors opened at 8:30, so it gave us some time to look at all the pretty things in the shop windows.... after we got our seats (at one of those neato booths that are shaped kinda like clam shells!) we had an hour and a half to kill... thank god the people next to us were pleasant....
The show was so funny! He, of course, made fun of the McGreevey situation and the state of our country... if you haven't heard Lewis Black, I highly recommend checking him.
Tonight, Holly and I went to see Maroon 5 and John Mayer at the Tweeter Center.... of course, I bought lawn seats (these tickets were originally bought for someone else, but things aren't always to be taken at face value so Holly went with me instead so the tickets weren't wasted)and of course, it poured. We bought ponchos and a tarp to put under the blanket we planned to sit on, but we still got soaked....
The show was good. I am not the biggest fans of either performers but John Mayer is an amazing guitar player, and I can appreciate that. I would have definately enjoyed myself more if it was nicer out.
After we got back to Holly's car, we were soaked... long story short, we drove home pretty much naked from the waist down.... never to be forgotten!
Tomorrow I am going to try my damnedest to get to go see Lisa in Gypsy!
