I know this is an apple blog site, but trust me this is still kind of on topic…and hey it’s a blog site, not a news site right?

Well about a week ago (last saturday the 18th) I went to see a Jack’s Mannequin in Delray Beach. Before the concert I went to get a preconcert snack/meal. Well a few minutes before getting the check guess who decided to sit down at the table next to mine???  Andrew McMahon and Bobby “Raw” Anderson of Jack’s Mannequin.

Well being too cool for school I didn’t want to just be like OMG OMG OMG…so I came up with a plan! I took out my iPhone and opened up the iPod app. I then drilled down to the latest Jack’s album The Glass Passenger (you should click the link & buy the album on iTunes) and selected Swim to play. After a minute it got their attention and was able to strike up a conversation. We talked about a concert in Philly, etc etc.

Ok, here is where it ties back to apple…Andrew asked me where the music was coming from. I told him it was my iPhone 3g and he was like, that’s pretty loud! So… Yeah, that was it for the apple connection, but hey at least I got to mention my iPhone right?

I also met another band at the concert called Treaty of Paris. These guys were really cool and hung out with us regular people after they finished their set.  If you like good music like me you should totally check them out (yeah, another iTunes link, but it’s an apple website so???). As of now Treaty of Paris is not an iPhone band and Phill has a blackberry (ewwwwwh!!!). Hopefully soon when they are making the big bucks they will opt for the iPhone

Anyway here is a pic with Andrew and Bobby!
