Tonight we got to see Carolina Liar do an acoustic show on the smaller boat, the Hornblower Adventure. I can honestly say that I had never really listened to these guys other than their two songs that are constantly on the radio, but I figured that there is nothing that beats live music, so why not? I took Ginger with me to bring back memories of our concert summers, and we had just as awesome of a time as we had two years ago. Chad and Rikard (I don't know how you spell it, he's Swedish, and hot) kicked it off with the perfect song, California Bound as the boat was sailing away from the harbor. So we had the San Diego bay backdrop, and halfway through the song, a Navy plane flew overhead very low, which made for an AWESOME special effects.
All in all, I have to say that the show was... ehhhh.... Chad's voice was a little off, and Rickard kept talking between songs sometimes saying things that were just completely out of left field. However, they did get the crowd going and clapping. During Last Night people got up and started dancing- something about songs about drinking and one night stands always get people, I guess. They finished off the set with I'm Not Over You and by this point most people were already up. I was distracted by an old man in the front row who was bumping and grinding with the people next to him which was AWESOME!!! That's the kind of old man I want at my wedding to make sure people get up and dance!
The rest of the cruise was pretty random. Since it was a 21 and up event because of the bar, I can only assume that the two skinny bobble head girls were recent 21 year olds (or had fake IDs) that seriously made me feel a little more dumb every time they opened their mouths-- I'll take "The Hills" anyday now. There was the one guy trying to sell his book about how to swim to Angola and how to survive there. According to him, the New York Times dubbed him the modern day, real life Indiana Jones, but even that didn't convince us to pony up $30 for his book. There was, as Ginger called him, the D.I.L.F. (yes, like MILF) who while hugging his wife with one hand, was rubbing his wife's friend's back and butt secretly. There was the extremely wasted guy who was with the two scary lesbians who looked like he was about to puke in his seat the minute the show started and his friends only kept pushing him around more. And there was the awkward run in with the band. Chad was pretty good about chatting, but Rickard on the other hand would just ignore people and jump over the chairs to chat with the hot girls with big boobs... figures....
one day i'll have my big boobs and I'll use them to score a decent conversation....
just kidding...
