Opening Night
Liner Notes
The Flying Squirrels and I moved to Richmond the same year, and I immediately jumped on board and got a bunch of tickets for opening night. I went every year that The Squirrels had an opening night at The Diamond, and the groups of friends grew larger over the years. It became a real source of joy for both me and many loved ones over the years.
Lyrics
There's something about a minor league park, Hanging with your friends as it gets dark. "Pass the popcorn" or "Can I get you a beer?" It's Opening Night, and the gang's all here.
Did you know that it could it be so great? Take something you love, make it a holiday -- Mark your calendar and invite your friends, Today's the only day that we get to spend
See a home run or a double play, Eat some Squirrely Fries or an ice cream sundae, Watch the skyline as the sun sets -- This is as good as life gets
Did you know that it could it be so great? Take something you love, make it a holiday -- Mark your calendar and invite your friends, Today's the only day that we get to spend
You can sit at home and scroll your phone, pour a drink, take your methadone. We all need our dopamine, But the best kind's from the people you meet
Did you know that it could it be so great? Take something you love, make it a holiday -- Mark your calendar and invite your friends, Today's the only day that we get to spend
Did you know that it could it be so great? Take something you love, make it a holiday -- Mark your calendar and invite your friends, Today's the only day that we get to spend with them

I love this!! Especially the lines “we all need our dopamine / but the best kind’s from the people you meet.”
Love “today’s the only day you get to spend”. Fun and soothing song, and encouraging! 🙂
