Standing 2-4 hrs. at a concert is still not something my poor knee is able to handle, so I really appreciate those artists that can emote all the way to the seats in the back of the room. This is exactly what I got last night with the powerhouse duo of Shawn James and The White Buffalo whose back-to-back sets left me with all the feels.
Next week we’ve got top entertainers in Butch Walker and Twenty One Pilots who are sure to reach the cheap seats, but I am most excited about Aussie siblings Sheppard playing the Moroccan Lounge Friday night.
