My Rockstar Night: Waiting in Line With Taylor Hawkins

On Sunday April 27th, 2003, some friends and I went to see pop punkers The Ataris at The Norva in downtown Norfolk, Virginia. I’m sure it was fun at the time, but nearly 20 years later the show doesn’t exactly stand out in my mind.

However, the events of the rest of the night will stand out forever.
