Now you got a bone to pick with me, but I wish you'd let me be

So yesterday my friend Justin emails me that he has an extra ticket to Ryan Adams...I reply of course w/ "I'm in...but how much?" Best answer possible: Free. Free? Then I'm so in. I'm more in than I was when I thought it would cost money (which was unfortunately not in at all). Okay, enough. And now I will give Reagan's cynical version of a concert review, that really doesn't talk about the music at all:
I've always been a fan of Mr. Adams music, but not so much a fan of him as a person...from various articles, sound bytes, stories, etc. he seems like an a**hole. And I'm not a fan of a**holes even if I myself can be one from time to time. But I digress...he opened w/ "To be young" and after that I didn't know a single song. I still enjoyed the concert, even if I would have preferred to be sitting down rather than standing behind two really tall girls (I'm talking over 6 ft tall...giants!). It ran a little long...my attention span stops at an hour and this went well past an hour and a half. His banter b/w songs was somewhat amusing...I particulary enjoyed his attempt at stand-up comedy:
(almost verbatim)
Ryan: So everyone kept telling me that I had to check out In & Out Burger when I came to LA. And now I know why they call it In & Out...b/c once you go in, you can never come out.
Oh Ryan, you're such a riot. You're so hilarious. I've never heard him speak before...I mean, I saw Whiskeytown about 6 yrs ago but at that point the name Ryan Adams meant nothing to me. He stutters a bit over his words and ends up sounding a bit like Bobcat Goldthwait...I kid you not. The only thing I really wanted to do, no matter how lame it would be, was to scream out "Summer of '69" when everyone else decided to recommend their song choices ("Wonderwall" was a popular one...and he didn't play it...and I was fine w/ this). I wonder if he'd kick another person out of his concert for making a Bryan Adams joke...one time, that's funny...two times, a little played out.
Oh, and I had one celebrity sighting...Alexis Bledel. Who? Well, that's Rory from the "Gilmore Girls". So there you go. And that's it...that's my night. I had a blast and have to say 10 times over THANK YOU JUSTIN!!!

p.s. Apparantly Ryan's dating Parker Posey..."Wipe that face of your head, b*tch!"
