Rusted Root

Okay so being the old school flower children we are D and I decided to revert back to the college days and check out the Rusted Root concert at the new XPN venue the Queen. First off, the Queen is simply amazing. I cannot say anything but that. I hope to see as many shows as I can here.



I was not really sure what my expectations of RR was since I have not seen them since college. The last show I had seen them at in Pittsburgh was effing awesome. All I can remember was it was pouring and we were covered in mud, "Rain" came on it was just epic. I remember every second of the song and how incredibly lucky I was to share my love of music with such cool ass people. The three hour ride home however was not so much fun. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised that RR still had it. Despite the loss of my favorite member and the discontinuance of my favorite track I still enjoyed every minute of the show. It is amazing to see a group of people use such a broad spectrum of instruments. Liz Berlin is just so incredibly talented.



At the end of the show of course we stuck around, like old times, scored some autographed guitar picks and then peaced out.



Of course the night never just ends for D and I. Continued with some rooftop reminiscing.



The overall consensus of the night was that we would like to go back to college...even for a couple days. Danielle would like to return for the partying, I myself, would like to return for the naps in between classes. These 9 hour work days simply suck ass.

Next up at the Queen....Robert Randolph
