So the problem is that you get so drunk and it's outdoors so you just talk and dont' really realize that you are still at a concert. So apparently we were being loud but whatever everyone around us was being loud. So this rather large bald man sitting alone in front of us felt the need to turn around and yell really loudly "why don't you shut the fuck up!!!!" The whole section was silenced and apalled. The Fabers said "how dare he! We're at the hollywood Bowl!" it was very unsavery. After that we didnt' quite know waht to do. Should be talk? Can we clap? Then Sergio started asking the audience to "make some noise" but we felt like we really shouldn't after that man's outburst. Then Bob Faber started singing along and Catherine broke the ice by turning around and saying somewhat loudly "can you please keep it down!" We all started rolling and that evil man in front of us was silenced for the rest of the night. he didnt' even clap or anything! Like i knwo you love sergio mendes but it's a concert and the point is to have fun. And fun we did have. Sergio had a few guest singers with him like India Ari and John Legend...so hot. But the best part of the night for me was when some 80's crooner came out and sang "never gonna let you go!! i wanna hold you in my arms forever!!" with a samba twist. Can you eeeeemagine! It was that good. I just kept wanting to shake my shoulders and hips separately. Good times.

Sergio Mendes
So Catherine had the brilliant idea a few months ago of going to the Hollywood Bowl and drinking and eating hummus. We finally bought tickets and tonight we went to see Sergio Mendes. Basically any Brazilian samba music you've ever heard (except the girl from ipanema) is him. My mom loves him and used to play his cd's a lot. It was the bomb concert! For anyone who has never been to the Hollywood Bowl i highly recommend it. It's a huge amphitheater nestled in the hollywood hills with the Hollywood sign in the background above the stage. And you can watch concerts with the 10 stars of LA overhead. So romantic. Also the best part is that you can bring food and drinks into the shows so everyone is totally drunk. We were sitting in front of the Faber family who were having a reunion. They were a jolly bunch.
