Who knew I could be a fangirl?

Tonight I met Marc Cohn and Suzanne Vega.

They both signed CDs for me.

I got to have an actual substantial conversation with Marc Cohn, and cause him to reminisce about a concert a really long time ago.

Wow.

I can't say that I was expecting this.

Wow! That sounds terrific! What was the occasion?

A concert at The Lensic in Santa Fe, where I am currently visiting my sweetie. It struck me as too large a venue to get "artist comes to the lobby and signs your CDs" treatment, but apparently it's not.

Very, very cool! Well, that makes the last-minute tickets definitely worthwhile!

Oh, very much so. I would have been happy to just see the concert, but the venue was fabulous, our seats were amazing, and I got to actually meet one of my favorite artists of all time (and Suzanne Vega, too).

So yes, it was worth all of the mad rushing about I did to make it work.

Very cool. I've seen Vega but not Cohn

I saw Marc Cohn at a lunchtime in Central Square in 1991. WBCN was doing this lunchtime concert series, where they'd rent out the lesbian nightclub for an hour or two in the middle of the day. The concert was amazing, and I've wanted to see him perform again ever since then.

Too bad I missed the fact that he was at the Somerville Theater in January...but it all worked out.
