Son and his wife leaving for the Cincinnati Garth Brooks concert in a few minutes. They have friends in high places so will watch from a suite with drinks and food. Tough life


I like Garth Brooks - but 70k people in one place is not my cup of tea.

    Wow, after such a long hiatus raising his girls Garth has been back the last few years doing what he does best...perform.

    Hope they have a good and safe time.

    My son just left - he was so excited. They have a parking pass for a reserved spot right next to the stadium provided to them...close to the elevator going up to the suite.

    This is a case of good deeds coming back to you.


    Edit: 2 hr rain delay but they said the concert was great. Wouldn't it seem strange to be singing on stage and seeing yourself on big screens around the place? I guess the entertainers are used to it.

    Are you more of an introvert ? Do you have anxiety issues?

    I've never been a big concert fan. And as I've gotten older and my favorite bands have died off little by little, I'm not sure what's left out there.

    I'd love to see Jeff Dunham. I know, not a concert, but still.

    Glad they had a good time!

    If that is directed to me - yes, I'm a bit of an introvert or maybe just a 'loner'. No anxiety issues - I'd call them 'space' issues


    To me, driving an hour to the city to listen to 70k screaming fans, then braving the traffic again to come home....sounds like work.

      If never dawned on me that you were an introvert, Kay. It sure does not come out in your presence here.

      Personally I don't see anything "wrong" with being an "Introvert." It's kind of a "loaded" word where ... People associate it with being "shy" and "reserved" etc. ... In my experience , It just means they appreciate more time alone to "re-energize."

      I used to be very "Introverted" and now I'm kind of an "Ambi-vert" (somewhere in the middle.)

      You're right but at the same time, concerts and various entertainments may make everything worse. I remember the story of my friend, who have divorced with his beloved wife just because she gave him up and preferred to stay with another man.
      He was super suppressed, depressed and in a very bad mood. I tried to make him fun, because I understood that the best thing for him those times to distract from this situation. I invited him at the concert of his favorite band (don't remember the name of the band) and when he heard his favorite song, he burned into tears, because he together with his wife had a long trip by car to various cities, listening to this music.
      I blamed myself, but at the same time I understood that he had never told me about this trip before.

    Not sure that is the right word for me. "Loner" may be better.



    I like people in small doses, well spaced.

      I can totally identify. When I was single I could literally drive to the beach for 8 hours and have a blast... by myself. Put on some sandals, grab a suspense novel, and a beer and I was in heaven

      I like being with one person...maybe a couple at a time. They have to be interesting to me, or close friends.

      Even though I seem at ease with larger groups of people, to me...it's work. Always.

      Cheryl and I never go to parties or social gatherings. It has to be with a couple we care about. Our attention is on them.

      When I used to speak at conventions and trade shows, it always looked like I was enjoying the social interactions. But it was always work...always a drain. I went back to my room exhausted.
