Bus Report #659

This morning there were already people lined up by the Fillmore, with a barricade partially set up. A dozen other people unloaded a large truck in front of the venue - loading in the night's show, I guessed. But who were these people waiting outside the Fillmore at 6:30 AM, in the dark?
A look at the show schedule gave me my answer: Metallica fans.

The 22 pulled up and I got on. It was empty. "How's it going?" I asked the driver.
"Better, better," he said.
"Better is good," I replied.
I sat down and the driver said, "You've got the bus to yourself, at least for a couple of stops."
"I'll make the most of it," I told him.
