Hutch: DAR does blow.. but I think ultimately your priorities have changed and you are not as interested in live performances....you're more selective... it has to be at the venue you want, for the price you want, and a lot of other factors have to come into line.... this is not the way it was when you were a single young stallion back in the glory days of Space Cowboy concertgoing...
I hope I am not projecting.... Wink
You are right that I am more selective, and I think that's likely the case for most of us as we age.
In my case, I've never been someone who went to tons of shows at any point anyway. (lack of money while in my 20's, living in smaller concert markets, variety of other interests, etc)
But enough of me. These threads are the most boring when they become the most personal, imo.
