Dan's MBA Interview and John Mayer ALL IN ONE DAY







What a day June 2nd was! At 8am Dan had to be at the UW MBA school for a group interview for the evening MBA program. After an intense several hours, Dan arrived home around 1pm and we quickly packed a picnic before heading out to the Gorge Amphitheatre to see John Mayer. If you don't know already, I LOVE John Mayer and have all of his albums. Once Dan asked me if I could "jam" with anyone who would it be? Of course I said John Mayer, so today I was finally a little closer to this dream :) Dan started out driving the three hour trip over the pass to the Gorge, but after an intense morning he could hardly keep his eyes open. He pulled over and I drove the rest of the way (he said he blinked his eyes and suddenly we were there). The show was absolutely fantastic. The opening acts were Rocco Deluca and Ben Folds (both put on great performances, but Dan was especially excited to see Ben Folds). John Mayer played for two hours and we were so blown away by how awesome he sounds live. The backdrop of the concert was the Gorge which sits right on the Columbia River. Amazing! Our seats were in the 12th row, so we could see all of John Mayer's funny facial expressions right up close. Dan started out the drive home, but again we pulled over and I finished out the trip getting us home around 2am...What a day!!
