Jake called me Friday morning and offered us some tickets to the Fraternal Order of Alaska State Troopers (FOAST) fundraiser concert that evening. What a surprise!
So Dean & I hurried around after work and Thing 1’s drivers Ed class, and made a date of it. Went to Louie’s for dinner, oh so good. We haven’t done that in forever! And then headed to the concert.
I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical about this band. I couldn’t even recall one song that they had, they were a little before my time. Lol
The opener was a comedian and he was pretty funny. It was nice to be out in public, in a mixed crowd, laughing and enjoying ourselves.
Then the band came on stage. First few songs I don’t think I’d ever heard before but then they started playing songs that were familiar. Turns out I did know some of their songs I just didn’t realize that’s who sang them. Indian Reservation for one.
They did a few covers that were well done and very familiar, like “One” and “Devil in a Blue Dress”. There was a lot of singing along by all ages. It was pretty cool to experience that. All in all it was a nice little outing and we enjoyed it. Thanks Jake!
