No Business Naming Things

Lexy and I hopped aboard a train mid day Thursday and headed off to Montreal to meet up with a friend so that we could all go and see Rush play at the Bell Center.  I saw them in Ottawa last year and they were excellent and this show was as good or better.  The seats weren’t nearly as good (no 12th row floor this time) but the sound quality was much better and there was an added vignette that was both funny and creepy.  The highlight for  me was once again Natural Science with Subdivisions as a close second.

It wasn’t all good  though. Once again we had to deal with That Drunk.  You know, the one who slops beer on you and elbows you in the head?  Yeah, him.  He was sitting directly behind Lexy and was knocking her chair around quite a bit.  He must’ve realized what he was doing because he eventually leaned over and put both his arms around her neck.  Apparently he was apologizing to her but of course, to me, I see a drunk man strangling my wife-to-be, so I haul off and smack him and push him off of her.  He gets this “oh shit, I’m so drunk and sorry look” about him and backs off.  From here on out I’m watching him out of the corner of my eye waiting for it to happen again, but I think he decided to bug his neighbor instead.

Still, an excellent show and I’ll definitely go see them again if they’re close by.
