Saturday night we had our monthly date. Live music at the Wild Buffalo. Dale has been wanting to go since we were in college and it's never happened. That's what this year is all about. Going out and crossing all those things off the list! We went out for a drink at Boundary Bay because my meticulous internet research told me doors open at 8p and the band started at 930p. I wanted to arrive 'fashionably late' a few minutes after 9p. Backtrack to Boundary Bay.... Dale ordered a blond ale but they didn't have any... in honor of Cinco de Mayo they had brewed their blond ale with chili peppers. Dale gave it a try.Halfway through he said he was really starting to feel the heat. He didn't quite finish his pint. It was close to 9p by then and I wanted to make sure we got a decent seat at the Buffalo. We arrived at the Wild Buffalo, paid for our tickets and entered a COMPLETELY empty bar. Of course we secured the best seat in the house and grabbed a few drinks. Sat down at the table and checked our phones. 910 and the first band was slated to start at 10p ( contrary to my Internet research). Dale was starting to feel the effects of his chili pepper beer with a wicked case of heartburn. So what do two ( late) thirty something's do in a bar when it's just the two of us. We pull out our phones and start texting other people (how romantic). We quickly realized we weren't that lame comparative to other people our age at home sitting on the couch watching pvr'd episodes of Jimmy Fallon! Finally around 1030 the first band started. The music was okay but we were waiting for the headliners.....1140p Five Alarm Funk finally took the stage! They were good but by then we were $50 bucks in for the sitter and feeling like it was bedtime. We made it home shortly after midnight and called it a night. Maybe something to try again when the kids are out of town....
