Do you remember The Four Tops? If you are about my age then you will definitely know some of their hit songs. We were invited by our friend G and J since they had two extra tickets for last Fridays show. It was held in a smaller venue in Campbell but it was a sold out show. We went for dinner first at Rock Bottom, a local pub/restaurant. It was my first time there and they had great menus. The food was great and since they have their own micro brewery, Jean and I split the sampler beer.
My favorite would have to be # 3, 4, and 6 |
Since it is soulful Sunday, it is so appropriate to talk about the concert because these group had a lot of soul. Although only one member is left from the original, their songs were still as good as they were some 40 years ago. You know when they ask you to get up and dance, some people actually did get up. Oops I forgot that the majority of the people watching were seniors (that includes me). Here's the funny part, there were two ladies that stood up when they sang "it's the same old song" and started dancing a little. When the song ended and they were about to sit down, all of a sudden the woman behind us, reach over and hit one of the ladies that was dancing on the head and she said " Do you know how annoying it was when you stand up because I can't see anything? A little later, Jeff and I were leaning towards each other to say something and the same woman said "do you know how annoying it is when you are leaning and talking. You are not supposed to talk". So Jeff said, "just lighten up". Then she started kicking the back of Jeff's chair, so Jeff told her to stop and just chill". It was hilarious. When the show was over, we spoke to the two ladies in front of us and they really did not know what happened and we all talk about that woman who left so quickly after the show which by the way lasted one hour and ten minutes. I am guessing that everyone had to be in bed by 930 pm. We couldn't stop laughing about the whole exchange of words between us and that woman who probably have never been to a concert before, at least that's what those ladies said.
