A Step-by-Step Guide, Volume 2

How to see a Tristan Prettyman/John Butler Trio/G.Love and his Special Sauce Concert

Step 1:  Buy your ticket.

Step 2:  Meet your friends at their house and grab a ride with your other friend to the show.

Step 3:  Make it to the show in record time-- not even 10 minutes.

Step 4:  Scope out a place on the lawn to sit and get comfortable.  You should look like this:
Step 5:  Make sure everyone has a beer and a burger.  This can be done before Step 4 or after. Use your own good judgement.
Step 6:  Be completely entertained by all three acts.  Be so relaxed that you start to make your friend's husband take lots of photos of you.  They should look a little like this:
Step 7:  Realize that while you wouldn't buy any of G.Love's albums, you would see him live again anytime.  He's part gansta, part homeboy, part grasser, but all FUNK.
Step 8: Go the parking lot and find your car AND leave in your car in about 8.2 minutes. Another record.

Step 9:  Always see shows at McMenamin's Edgefield.  Always.
