A few weeks ago I said to Walker, I would really like to see Ben Kweller play one more time before I leave Austin. That same day in the car they announced on the radio the line up for Blues on the Green and guess what?! Ben Kweller was to be playing on the 27th of June-3 days before my departure date!! What?! I really couldn’t have planned that better if I tried. I like to think it was set up that way just for me. Did you know this year marks 10 years of my listing and going to Ben Kweller concerts?

But of course being Austin the day of the show was blazing hot so after biking there and then sitting in the sun Katie and I were sticky!! Can you see the sweat about to drip in my eye? Once the sun went down it was a bit better though. The show was so much fun. It was a bit weird looking at Ben with greenish blue hair (get it blues on the green) but that was only distracting for the first few songs. Then we just sang along and danced and had the best time. Until we had to bike home that is (it’s all uphill and I got a flat about a mile from home but we played in some sprinklers so it wasn’t all bad).
