I have been a country music fan for the past 15 years. Last night the inner rocker came right back out of hiding. Esmerelda and I went to see Bon Jovi at the Verizon Center in DC. We had a good time catching up, having a good brisk walk, people watching and singing along with Jon. I saw someone in their vintage Slippery When Wet t-shirt, I remember that from high school and I just had my 20 year reunion. The crowd was entertaing to watch--grandparents & grandkids, families, drunk college guys, lots of mid-30s to mid-40s folks and the librarian looking lady behind us totally rocking out!
Jon has definitely gotten better with age, Richie, not so much!
Here is the playlist from the show:

Just really great music from 1983-present, there is a band with some staying power! Oh the memories some of those songs brought back. Obviously I haven't been to a concert in a really long time because the $60 t-shirts made me blanch!

One word here:
JEALOUS!
Jealous here, too. FUN!!! I love me some Bon Jovi. And that man is getting more scrumptious with age!
I went to the concert too and nearly choked when I saw the prices of the tshirts!! How cool was it when he played songs in the crowd? I sure wish I was lucky enough to be sitting in THAT section! Jon has one lucky wife!!! :)
I am so glad you had fun!!!
