Yes, Geeks do have fun

Though the guys at SNAPPS would argue that I don't qualify for geek status...

Monday night was awesome, the realization (finally!) of Liz's Christmas present...we went to the Eric Clapton concert in Kansas City at Kemper Arena - about 12,000 in attendance.  Fifth row, just left of center, about 20 feet from the stage.  Robert Cray opened with a magnificent yet under-appreciated set full of simple but elegant guitar work and vocals, and then joined Eric for a magnificent duet later on.  Of course EC played Layla - a very upbeat, pounding version of it, one of the highlights of the evening.  A set of reviews of the KC show can be found here.

Having said that, of course the real highlight of the evening was (turn on the sap-meter) the company I was with...

It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

     I feel wonderful because I see
     The love light in your eyes.
     And the wonder of it all
     Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

Sadly, back to work...
