Duran Duran-GM Place March 4, 2005 Vancouver

Sure I used to like Duran Duran when I was young, but this is 2005 and I'm just not feeling that nostalgic, but Marsi can't go, and Peter and May are both friends of mine, so off we go. Unexpectedly high ticket sales have led to the horrible realization that our great seats have become bad seats with the movement of the stage. As the concert starts, Peter notices that a lot of seats are empty by the front. "Let's do a recon?" I say, and off I go to check it out.

Wow! I make it all the way to the front with no hassles! I go get Peter and May. As we make our way to the front I make the mistake of saying "Act like you belong" and they stop in complete unison. "No really!" I say, "Everyone around me didn't belong there either!!" but they wouldn't budge. No camera but my cel phone, and here it is to share.

These are from a surprize appearance the R.E.M made at this very small club in Vancouver. I was lucky enough to have a couple of ins, so I knew they would be there. Thanks Barb! Thanks Frank!

Yup, I got to meet Michael, and as he is my hero, I pretty much made a fool of myself but he did the right thing and pretended not to notice.
