Things I Learned at the Journey/Def Leppard Concert

at USANA Amphitheater (from observation), in no particular order:

1. Journey without Steve Perry is essentially just a cover band.

2. Apparently, you can smoke marijuana freely in the men's restroom.

3. Apparently, it is acceptable for men to wear eyeliner to classic rock concerts.

4. Likewise, it is acceptable for men to spend more time styling their hair for a classic rock concert than their female counterparts.

5. Ladies need not bother to remove their own panties to throw at the band because the merchandise booths sell panties for $20.

6. Do not throw out old concert t-shirts - you will need them.

7. It is perfectly acceptable to have your mom drop you off at a classic rock concert. In a mini-van. With your wife. And you are 42.

8. It takes approximately the same amount of time to drive from downtown SLC to USANA on concert night as it would to drive to Las Vegas.

9. 24 ounce cans of beer that cost $1.49 at convenience stores cost $7.50 at USANA.

10. 10 year-olds know all the words to "Don't Stop Believin'" and "Pour Some Sugar On Me." So do 75 year-old men.

11. It is best not to give your friend a lesson in Tawny Kitaen style dancing because it is quite possible that people that work in your building will see you and come over to chat. And then request that you repeat the lesson.

12. The ATM line is to be avoided at all costs.

13. Grown, tough-uy men tear up to "Faithfully."

14. An amazing number of people pack in sleeping bags. And then leave them.

15. The 70's are out, and the 80's are in.
