I see The English Beat at the Agora in Hartford, CT. That band with the weird singer that does "Carnival of Sorts" opens for them. Between sets my buddy and I are hanging out in the back of the venue when the guitarist walks by. He's really tall and thin, wearing cool pointed toe cowboy boots. I wave and try to tell him I enjoyed the set, but he just walks by, not even making eye contact.
