It’s with a slight sting<\/strong> that I tell you how my concert experiences have been on the decline over the last couple of years.<\/p>\n

A combination of getting older and not having the luxury anymore to jet off to a new concert venue at a moments notice have led to this, but I’m not complaining as it has been a good ten-year run, and I’ve seen some amazing shows and bands.<\/p>\n

These days though I find joy in something a little more low-key and relaxing, like the symphony<\/a>.

The Phoenix symphony here in Arizona<\/strong> likes to combine the beauty of rock and roll music with the classic stylings of symphony instruments, which results in hearing great music in a whole new way.<\/p>\n

Case in point would be the Pink Floyd laser show I went to at the Mesa Amphitheatre a couple of weekends ago.<\/p>\n

They played the Dark Side of the Moon album in its entirety, then threw in a few other classic songs, including one of my personal favorites, “Wish you were here<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

Apropos of nothing, but I do wish you were….<\/p>\n
