“Dear PoPville,

Long shot, but I’d regret it if I didn’t… a missed connection from last night’s Samia 9:30 Club show! I was standing to the left of the stage, near the food spot, with two friends shorter than me. I was wearing jeans, a long sleeved forest green long sleeved shirt and have brown and blonde mixed hair. There was a man there, about 5’9″ish with a beard, light brown/blonde hair with a beard, by himself.

He was wearing jeans, a patagonia-like vest on top of a plaid long sleeve and was by himself. There was a young guy in front of him who was a bit taller, and I had room next to me, so I tapped him on the shoulder and told him he should move closer to she could see. He was by himself, and seemed really appreciative. We just stood there quietly and he didn’t say anything, but he was by himself which was unusual for this artist as her demographic leans more young women.

Anyway, I didn’t say anything else to him and left to go grab my coat at coat check right before the encore to beat the crowd, and I he followed me but I ran into a friend on my way out. Then I grabbed my coat and ran into him again outside of the Club on my way home. I regret not asking him his number or his name! Hoping he reads this on PopVille and wants to grab coffee or a drink sometime to talk about music!”

PoPville is not affiliated with either party, please proceed with any potential connection at your own risk using caution as you would any online encounter. For those curious about past missed connections, many have been made and when possible I’ll try to update when/if more are made.
