That Time We Saw Paul Simon But Didn’t See Paul Simon

Justin and I have come to the realization that if we don’t see certain musicians that are on tour now, we may never get the chance again as some of these musicians are getting up there in age and have been touring for decades and decades.  Anyway, so we jumped on the chance to see Paul Simon at Wolftrap.  I’m not the biggest Paul Simon fan..in fact, I probably only know a handful of his songs well, but again I wanted to be able to say I saw Paul Simon in concert.  So we dropped the girls off at my parents and headed to Wolftrap.  It was misting so we decided to tailgate in the minivan for one beer before we headed into the show.  I have been to Wolftrap dozens of times and although I like to get there early, the truth is it is usually pretty easy to squeeze into a spot for just two people.  Well not tonight…waiting in the rain out in the car was a big mistake!  It was packed!  We found a spot high up on the hill and this was our view!  

So we decided to take some selflies! 

And we moved a little closer some songs so that we could actually “see” Paul Simon…okay, see the stage….sort of…

Cheers Paul!  

We decided to enjoy the show by laying underneath the stars…except we were literally in the last row by the fence that we were underneath the trees!  

All kidding aside, we had a good time and I’m sure we will remember this show and the time we went to “see” Paul Simon.
