John Mayer....or was it Bill Mayer?

I love Groupon!  And this year they started offering concert tickets on Groupon and because I LOVE going to concerts....I don't think twice about purchasing tickets for a show when I get them for half off!

And so it was the case for John Mayer.  I like John Mayer.  I enjoy his music and find it quite relaxing so I thought....why not?  However, the day came for the concert and we were super busy with work and I had been up since 5am working non stop on the day of the concert.  Not only that, but Jacob was on a school trip and happened to come home the night of the show so I thought I better stay home.  I offered the tickets to my mom and she said, "Sure, I'll go!".  My thought was that she would take Bill with her.  But on the day of the show she called and asked, "what time should I pick you up for the concert?"  I couldn't say no and thought I would suck it up and go enjoy the show!

And I did.....for awhile.   Then I just became bored.  He is talented and I still enjoy his music but enjoy it when I'm in a bubble bath or reading a book.  Not so much when he plays an 'extended version' of every single song.  I admit it....I was bored.  And I never thought I'd leave a concert early (besides KISS because I was going deaf), I had to go home and go to bed.  Just couldn't do it any longer.

No offense to John or his music.  Maybe on a different day with a little less stress and a lot more sleep, I might have enjoyed him.  But on this night....he was just okay.

Regardless of the concert bust, I had a great time hanging out with my mom.  There is no one else I would have rather gone with!
