I went on one of the most awesome dates of my life last night. Tyrone Wells played at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, and Adam and I went to get wowed once again.

He did not disappoint. The man is an amazing singer/songwriter, hilarious storyteller, and great entertainer. I’d never seen him with his whole band before, (last time we saw him, it was in his “home turf” – Plush Cafe in Fullerton – which tops the charts for weirdly bright decor and only holds about 50 people – a totally different vibe from the full band and bar at CH).

I’ve never been a celebrity follower, (it took me until J.Lo actually had a child to figure out that the GFY rumors were just messing with me,) and while most of my girlfriends will beguile time at the beach or pool with a gossip rag, I’m much more likely to be seen with a fat novel, recent news or a writing magazine. I have to be honest, though, and admit that I am a sold-out Tyrone groupie.

I’ve learned also, that I should listen to (and become groupies of?) the people who he shares the spotlight with… Amber Rubarth and Jason Reeves were fantastic as well.

ps – Thanks to Adam for being a great date and equally enthusiastic live music lover… at least somebody else feels the need to move to the beat and not sit woodenly like these boring Californians…

ps #2 – We didn’t have a camera… but the Blackberry did pretty good at catching the moment:

What a great night.
