Last night I had a crazy idea. I decided to go out with Jeff and Nate to the student union at UW and listen to some bands from the Twin Cities (can't go wrong with free music shows) . What we got when we arrived was a crowd circling some break dancers in competition. It was great! I can sit and watch that stuff all day long. The athletic ability of these guys twirling themselves around on their hands and heads and spinning, etc was awesome. I wish I had that talent to keep a beat like that and look cool doing it besides. After the competition, we were surprised by a performance by a group we know, The Crest. Those guys are great. I used to do real estate with one of the brothers 'Jack Cracker' and his brother 'AD' are the main two rappers in their group. I also know their dad pretty well (he's a lender at a bank I close deals at a lot). AD works at the bank too as a bank teller. When these guys get on stage, it's hard to imagine that they hold respectable jobs and are professionals off the stage. They pump up the crowd so much. It was a great treat to see them (we didn't know they were going to be there to perform).
After the student union, we cruised over to Mr. Roberts in Atwood to see a friend, Brendan, who works the bar. Jeff and Nate scored a few free drinks and they were happy as clams - until Nate found himself in the alley 'relieving himself of his last few drinks'. I'm so glad I was the sober cab! Jeff had a similar time when he got home. Not too good for those guys and a great reason why I don't drink too much anymore. I just wish I had my camera along for some photos. Maybe next time I will think ahead.
The best part about the evening is that Nate was not expecting to drink until we arrived at his house to pick him up with 32 oz. Colt 45 for him to drink. After he drank that and his body went numb, he was ready for anything...
