I'm sure you've all heard this story, but I'm going to tell it again. It's the summer of '04... I'm at the Palace of Auburn Hills for the first time, for a Matchbox 20 concert. It's HOURS before the start of the show. I see that one of the opening bands is a group called "Maroon 5". Never heard of them. I see the bus. I see the "Maroon 5" equipment van. I see the band. Do I go over and say hi? No, no. I say something like, "Eh, they're just an opening band. Opening bands usually suck. Why bother?"
Ahem. Well, after the first few drum strokes of "Harder to Breathe", I knew that I'd made one of "those" mistakes. I was dancing my little heart out to songs I'd never heard from a band I'd never heard of. Adam Levine is a hell of a singer. He's just as unbelievable in concert as on the album.
Anyway, after about three years, Maroon 5 is releasing another studio album later this month. If you haven't heard it, check out "Makes Me Wonder". Don't play it work...you won't be able to keep your butt in your seat. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=18842010
