Alive at five

I'd intended to write today about how Blues Traveler is either (a) totally awesome again, or (b) shockingly lame with skinny ole John Popper. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no clue. We took the Bug to downtown Stamford yesterday evening, to see Blues Traveler play as the first band in this year's Alive at Five concert series. We had an outside table with some friends at Bobby Valentine's sports bar, right across the street from the park where the concert was held. While we had a really nice time, and the Bug enjoyed flirting with everyone at the surrounding tables, we could not hear a thing. I'm not sure where you need to be to actually hear the band, but we were definitely not there. Alas! You'll have to get your 2008 Blues Traveler review elsewhere.
