Dave Matthews and the Bucket List

I've accepted that now is not the time for Monkey and I to see Dave Matthews together. Even if Dave is playing with Willie Nelson. Even if it's in MEMPHIS where I first saw Dave Matthews Band (back when you could get tickets and other accouterments, or cooter mints, for fifteen bucks). Even if it's DAVE MATTHEWS! Dave Matthews is in the bucket list.



Sigh. My Dave Matthews.

Other men in my bucket just because my summer's almost gone. Almost gone. Where will we be? When summer's gonnnnneeeeeeeee:



Happy Bucket.

Emily, great picture of Dave! Wish I knew who Monkey was . . . I'm guessing he doesn't like Dave?

I came across your blog in a strange roundabout DMB-inspired way, but just wanted to say it snagged me and kept me away from my own work for awhile. Even your "About Me" description was funny!

Hey you! NOVELIST! Glad you found me :)

Monkey is my eleven year old son. He loves Dave Matthews, but he's loving Guns N' Roses more these days.

We aren't going to the concert since tickets are being SCALPED at this point and are at or above two hundred bucks.

I've bookmarked you! Love meeting writers.
