Celebrate, Celebrate, Dance to the Music!

Well in true corporate fashion, to celebrate an outstanding 20 years of being in business my company pulled out all the stops. Starting with renting the HP Pavilion, handing every man, woman and child that walked in a fiberoptic glow light, and then inundating everyone with more food than could possible be eaten. Ever restaurant at the shark tank was open and ready for business, all free of charge of course. The possibilities and choices …. staggering, the spread … lavish. Lets not of course forget those drinks with a little kick to make the evening all the more enjoyable, those were just the icing on the cake. When we have eaten our fill and were rubbing our Buddah bellies in delight, we waddled our way to our seats.

Almost as if on command, the lights dim and onto the stage enters Five for Fighting. A nice opening bit, some lively music to help clear the food and wake up the crowd after a post buffet doldrums. In front of over 20,000 people, they even dedicated a song to a young lady who was on a third date, as previously arranged by her date. (insert, awwwwwww). After a light set, they depart the stage leaving an opportunity for last minute bathroom and drink runs (amazing how the colors seem to coincide), and ready for the main event (do I hear horns and drums in the background?). Yes Santana has entered the theater. This post retirement age musician can really play up a storm. Now as I was told frequently and strenuously from the ladies around me, the entire Latin band was simply ‘FINE’. From my perspective the music was enough to get even the nerdiest of nerds onto their feet and shaking to the groove. Although not normally my taste in music, it made for a great evening.

What a way to celebrate 20, can’t wait to see what they do for luck 21!!
