Memorial Day Weekend

What a fantastic weekend. Jam packed with good fun and great friends. I’m so sad it’s over! Here’s some pics to recap… loved every second of it.
Friday
Friday I headed out to dinner in Beacon Hill with Meg, Lauren, and Kate. Kate is a REALLY SUPER fun friend from St. Lawrence. She cracks me up and it’s always so fun when she comes to visit. We decided to go to Harvard Gardens and had a great meal. They’re food is actually really good, which I never knew! After dinner the girls went out for more drinks and dancing and I headed out to Cambridge to visit Rebecca who was in the Bean from Brooklyn. YAY!


Rebecca was hanging out in Harvard Square with some friends from college/NYC. We went to this really nice pub, Daedalus, which had an amazing roof deck. It was such a nice night, perfect to be spending time outside. And when the night got cooler, we made it under some cozy heat lamps. Warm summertime goodness.


Saturday
Saturday Zan and I hit the road to Hartford to meet up with Hannah, Todd, and some of their Maine friends for the Dave Matthews Concert. Woohoo! SO FUN.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
Sunday
Sunday we made it back to Boston in time to meet up with Bailey and Kevin for brunch. They were in town for a wedding and I was so happy to catch up with them and hear about their honeymoon in Hawaii. Becca drove up from The Cape and we had ourselves a real live Cusp reunion. LOVE!

The rest of the afternoon Beck, Becca, and I took a mini tour around Boston that consisted of going to Urban Outfitters and walking along the Charles. So great to have old friends in town. Love you girls so much– come back soon!!

DMB!

YAAHOOOOO! Just bought tickets to see Dave this summer in Hartford! We’ll be going with Hannah and Todd and some of their friends and I am so excited I could BURST. It’s so exciting isn’t it? DMB in the summertime?! SURE IS.
I don’t know how many of you know this, but me and Dave go waaaay back. We’re tight.

DMB 8.4.09

Well, folks, Dave Matthews finally made it back to Syracuse, NY. And I came home to take part in the thrill of it all. This concert marks Dave’s first cuse experience since 1999, when he played at the Landmark Theatre with Tim Reynolds. Bet that show was phenomenal. My sister and I saw Dave and Tim play at Westpoint in 2003 and it was the best concert I’ve ever been too.

Anyhow, back to last night at Alliance Bank Stadium, what a show! Brought me straight back to high school and my days of dave-mania. The night was perfect, the company was quality and I just LOVED it.
Here was the setlist that he played:

We had a great time singing along and dancing it all out. My personal
favorites were Crush, Lie In Our Graves, and Grey Street. CLASSIC. Boyd Tinsley just ripped it up on the violin. Sweeeetness! Now I will admit here in my post this was my first concert in about 4 years. Shameful, believe me, I know. But I sure haven’t forgotten the glory. Overall it was concert #17 for me… can only hope to go to 17 more!

I used to say back in the day and I’ll say it again: DAVE FOREVER. Thanks for a terrific concert DMB… amazing as always.
