now and zen

So Morrissey and Tears for Fears are coming to Golden Gate Park for the Now and Zen concert. $35. Debating whether or not to go. Partly because I don't yet know what the weather will be like and I recall once going to something along the lines of Arts County Fair or something at UBC in the rain. People started a muddy mosh pit and some just started rolling around in the mud. People were hammered and I was on the verge of getting trampled. But then that was a bunch of drunk undergrads. I imagine people who might attend Now and Zen will be about a decade older. But still, not sure if I want to risk going in the rain or getting stepped on in the "open seating" (ie big field and a concert stage) arrangement. But by the looks of Morrissey, who seems to have aged about 30 years, there may not be another chance to see him. And $35 isn't too bad. Hmm I think I'm leaning towards going now.

I think the crowd is going to be very different from the undergrad. I dont' think anyone under 25 really knows who Tears for Fears are.

I went to Now and Zen last year to see Duran Duran and that was absolute crazy fun. For some odd reason, it was like a hundred degrees in the city but it was cool jammin' to the old school stuff. Tears for Fears would be pretty dope to see =)

If I knew TFF was going to perform "Famous Last Words", i'd be there in a heartbeat if it was closer.

I taped a radio station live broadcast of a concert they did down here, eh... around 10 years ago I guess. Loved it! Too bad the casette is mangled now :/

hmm I was probably one of those rolling in the mud. Well I remember sliding down the hill rather quickly.
That was for the Crash Test Dummies Arts County Fair. Sorry if I trampled you.
