Multistory midnight misery

In mid naughties my boyfriend and I went to see Kings of Leon in Manchester. We parked in a 24 hour multistory (parking lot) and because we were always late for everything had to park second from the top of about 8 floors high. Watched an awesome gig went to a bar after (I was sober!) then went back to the car around 11:00 only to find there was horrendous traffic trying to leave,  we decided to sit and wait as we didn’t know how long it works take to clear. Worst decision! We had no food,  water I was stone cold sober, tones of people kept their engines running there was no escape from the cooking fumes, we left it too late to give up & had back to a bar they’d ask closed. Trapped in this parking lot hell I could feel panic creeping in from behind my unconscious thoughts when……. Tonight Tonight came on the radio. We looked at each other and smiled, trapped in this misery after midnight realising it’s bad but it could always be worse we had had an amazing night. So we wound the windows down, turned the radio up full blast and sang as loud as we could through the fumes,  others joined in, we all embraced our misery and for a few glorious minutes I didn’t want to be anywhere else. We did eventually get out around 3am and never knew what the hold up was but that song saved our sanity. We also played Tonight Tonight at our wedding, thanks SP love your art. Mrs Tammy Woodland.
