I don’t think I’ve ever seen my son’s eyes light up as much as tonight when the guitar playing Chad Bowmar took the corner of La Parilla to serenade the restaurant.
When we arrived, we were seated in a nearly empty restaurant. The tables around us filled up pretty quickly and shortly thereafter, Chad arrived with his equipment. He set up right next to our table.
We coaxed him into playing Just Like Heaven (The Cure), The One I Love (R.E.M.), and Fast Car (Tracy Chapman). My daughter bobbed her head in approval through each song, swinging her hair all around. We’ve not had them around much live music; the R.E.M. concert in June was really the first time, and we were a good distance away from the stage. It seems we need to start looking for more live music.
