I went with Fred and Becky to see Maroon 5. Our seats were wonderful and the performance was great as it was last time we saw them.

But the opening act The Hives really caught my attention. I had never heard of them until the show and I have a feeling a lot of people in the audience were in the same boat. The band came out with tons of enthusiasm and put on a great show. The lead singer at one point in time said, “We are here for half an hour. That is enough time to make you fans!” With that said, I was interested in the show. They were great and even though their music wasn’t my favorite type, I will look into getting their CD now.

They were so enthused to be there and wanted us to have a good time and I believe they truly meant it. This true passion for life and what they did, made me a fan. Enthusiasm is a power tool that can be used when we are truly happy and passionate about something.

The lead singer towards the end said, “Are there lovelys out here?” and I screamed I AM A LOVELY! I was caught up in his enthusiasm or maybe…mine.
