• Old man and Metal in SLC

    Recently I've reacquainted myself with going to concerts, something that I hadn't done since the early 2k's or previously. Memory escapes me on the actual timeline, but let's just say that it's been a hella long time.

    Went to go see some bands most recently, it was a seriously great time I have to admit. One of the things that made me chuckle though, was the reaction of the parking attendant in downtown Salt Lake City.

    As I was processing for a parking permit, the attendant apparently wasn't aware what was happening that night, and asked me about it. I looked at her and said it was a music concert located about two blocks South of where they were.

    Her: "Oh, what kind of music?"
    Me: "metal"
    Her: "I'm sorry...what?"

    I repeat my answer and give her a slight grin

    Her: "To each their own, I guess"

    Why was it surprising to her that a "seasoned human being" likes metal music? Sorry but Lawrence Welk died a while ago, and I personally ban Hee Haw too.

    As I was leaving I swear I heard banjo's.
