Hey There, De-TRY-lah

Alrighty then.  Where were we?  After hill repeats two weeks ago and 1/4 mile repeats last week, we'll cycle to 1/2 mile repeats this week.  Beginners to intervals - plan for two or three 1/2 mile segments (or two 1/2s and finish with one 1/4), while the veterans should plan for three to four 1/2 mile segments.

A late arrival back in town from the weekend has left me a little short of time on Monday night, so I'll skip right to the essential part of this post:
Each year, we attempt to find a fun free concert at the New York State Fair for "TRY Night at the Fair".  I was flipping through the paper advertisement for the fair and couldn't find a night that worked.  (Admittedly, the one that jumped out at me was "Florida Georgia Line" on the first Monday, but unfortunately I have a conflict that night and cannot be there for that.)  There were a couple undetermined acts as of the printing of the paper version, so I went online to see what they ended up being and the new answer lept out at me.  On Thursday,  August 29th, Plain White T's will be the 8 PM free concert.  Done and done.  I cannot believe it's been seven years since "Hey There Delilah" came out, but according to Wikipedia it's true?  Wow!  It's time to see that baby live.  Who's in?  The "plan" is to show up 5ish or a bit later that night, use cell phones to find each other, have a bit a fun, a bit of food, and perhaps a wine slushy or two, then end the night listening to the song that launched a thousand parodies.

Here is an official acoustic version, including a story behind the lyrics:


And here are two of my favorite parodies, and by the number of views, I'm not the only one.  An Arab version:


And a Harry Potter version, that cuts a little too close to home.  (...The invisibility cloak didn't work that day...):


Share, if you have any other favorites, as I cannot get enough of this song, or people spoofing it (if they did a good job with it).
