John Legend under the Arch

Jeanette won some VIP tickets to see John Legend downtown at the Arch so we decided to make a night of it.  We got a babysitter and the three of us had dinner at Wasabi (sushi) before heading into downtown which was super busy.  We got to park free inside this gigantic parking garage which went several stories down.  After parking we then had to walk about a half mile into the park.  Wow, was it crowded!!!

Our seats were directly under the Arch and about 30 feet from the stage.  Right before the concert started security let in people in from beyond the gates.  It got a little crazy at first because everyone wanted in but things settled down when the concert began.  The music and weather was great.  After the concert there was a magnificent fireworks show began but we decided to get on out of there before the crowd did.  The walk back to the garage was super difficult…Eddie was leading, Jeanette had her hand on her shoulder and mine on hers.  If we got separated we would not be able to find each other.  When we got back to the garage the attendant said we had better hurry unless we wanted to be stuck down there in traffic for several hours. 

Overall, I don’t plan on going back anytime soon but if we do – we are definitely taking the Metro!  See more at http://www.flickr.com/photos/7148488@N02/sets/72157624450466955/
