But the owners of Fitzgerald’s found cause for celebration in music and threw a party that I’m sure they never thought would become what it is today.

If I go see someone, particularly someone I’ve seen multiple times and have a general fondness for, at some point in the show they’re gonna play a song I’m not all that into.
