I’m so happy when I go to a rock concert. I do it sometimes once a year, at least every couple of years. I can’t explain why I don’t do it more often because I end up having the best time. I feel like a kid again, remembering my first ever concert in San Antonio when I saw Bad Company and the opening act was so much better – Cheap Trick. I went to a lot of concerts in high school and college.

I saw Struts perform at the Mission Ballroom earlier this week with my buddy, Jed. We met for beers and wings at the BrewDog because it’s a short walk from the venue. I highly recommend it for that reason alone, but the IPAs are tasty as well. I have to ding them for charging a $1 for each additional ramekin of blue cheese. I’d let that go but they were smaller than a Dominoes ramekin and only half full. I mean, seriously, blue cheese is a condiment. But go, it was good.

I’d describe Struts as glam rock – which describes the performance more than the music itself, which I’d call pop rock. Struts puts on a good show. They get the audience involved. I’ve attached a couple of videos to give you a feel for them. Go see them if you get a chance. And go to the Mission Ballroom. There’s seating if you want it and a huge floor for standing with quick access to bars galore.
