Not the typical groupies Ben and Sadie swayed to the music from the mid level seats. Just far enough outside of the mosh-pit to not have to smell the disgusting sweat of raging bodies but close enough to still feel the pulse of the music. Ben shouted every lyric back at the artist. Sadie tugged on his arm pulling him out of his musical trance. Irritated he looked over at her. They did not get a chance to get out very often anymore. They were in their thirties, committed to demanding careers, and with two kids alone time together did not come along often. Sadie looked at him worriedly. He popped one earplug out to hear her. She stood on her tiptoes to shout in his ear.

"The babysitter is freaking out! We have to go!" Ben rolled his eyes.


"Five more minutes! It's been years since they toured! When are we going to get a chance to hear them again?" he shouted back.

"You promised if I felt uncomfortable with your cousin baby sitting at any point we could leave." She shouted back trying to be heard.

"Just one more song then!"

Sadie glared at him.

"Let's just finish this song. It'll be over in a minute."

"Fine."

The two turned back angrily enjoying the music.
