Would You Go to a Matinee Concert Connecticut?
We talked about a brilliant idea that Jamie Lee Curtis had on our show this morning, and it really struck a chord with me. Why aren't more concerts held earlier in the daytime? We have matinee movies and plays, is it time for a daytime concert for those of us that can't stay up past 10PM?

According to ultimateclassicrock.com, Jamie Lee Curtis, who is 64 years old, called on U2, Coldplay, and 73 year old Bruce Springsteen to play afternoon concerts instead of the usual 7-9PM starts during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. You go Jamie Lee.
I love the feeling of walking out of a darkened theater into the brightness of a sunny day. It's happened a few times, usually it's been a festival, like the HORDE Tour or Farm Aid at Xfinity in Hartford, those all day events are great, but I love it even more when I get home before midnight during the week.
I get up for work at 3:45AM, and I'm usually in bed between 8-9PM. I'm really screwed when it comes to making it to any evening event now. The first thing that popped into my head after I accepted my job was that I'm going to not be able to see anywhere near as many concerts as I typically do. It's held up too, I've had to pass on a couple of them because they're mid-week. I realize that most concerts are held in the evening in order to cater to the majority of the population, that does work 9-5 jobs, but I'm sure there are a whole lot of us that read her comments and said 'Yeah, that's a good idea.'
