Rockin' Out

I had THE BEST time on Sunday night!

My friend, "K", and I went to a concert at the casino in Temecula. Who did we see? THE INDIGO GIRLS! Only my favorite band in the whole world! The theater had great acoustics, and the seats were awesome.

They had a great opening act by the name of Thao (sounds like Tao) that I had never heard of before, but I ended up buying their cd. Very interesting, new sound with thoughtful, meaningful lyrics.


The Indigo Girls sounded great. I was worried that they would be playing all new music that I didn't know, but the set list included many of my absolute favorite songs. There were some great new songs as well, meaning that I am going to have to get their latest albums for myself sometime soon.

The crowd that night was energetic and friendly. There was lots of dancing and singing and laughing. It was interesting to see so many lesbian couples, since I have only heard the term mentioned once in my entire stay in Temecula. I wanted to run around the room asking all these liberally minded, enviromentally oriented people for their names and numbers. Those are the kind of people that I need to surround myself with, and they are few and far between around here. The whole evening was fabulous. I left making two promises to myself: I will most definitely be going to every Indigo Girls concert that takes place in the area, and I will be returning to the Pechanga theater for any concert that sounds interesting. It's a great place to see a show.

Next show: comedian Jim Gaffigan in July
