I'm not sure, looks like they have some events to get fans together to mingle, which would be fun. Hopefully someone who has been to these can weigh in here .

Do you have a link to the info? I would like to think about it anyway. :) Mr. blues was surprisingly interested in the idea of going to Toronto to see the Key ceremony. I think he wanted to spy on my heroes :D :D. (I woke up with stomach flu on Friday and have only started feeling better tonight. Story of my life.)

 

Oh, that's too bad! Hope you're better now. Mr. blues, that's cute.

I'm actually out of work too....but I really want to go! I wonder how much it will cost, I mean just the event. Airfare isn't too bad, relatively speaking.

Anyone going? I'm thinking aboot it....

Styx next week, woo hoo!

Raspberries and

 

no watermelon?

Me Earl and the Dying Girl. Really good and very quirky.

The weird thing is I didn't see anyone else at the Black Sabbath show wearing a RUSH t shirt. And other than seeing one guy wearing a Mastodon t shirt I didn't see any signs of prog or prog metal. However, several people did comment on my RUSH t shirt and a few seemed to be big fans.

 

Lol, I was going to wear my Hemispheres shirt tomorrow night, in the hopes of catching a cute Rush boy's eye!

I want to see Black Sabbath but don't have a ticket yet.

 

My next show is next Saturday and that is the Jelly Jam(members of Dream Theater and King's X).

 

OK, wait, did you see them in New Hope?? I was in the very back row, by the merch table.

 

 

Yes, I was there in New Hope. I guess I was somewhere in the middle. I thought I already replied to this but I didn't see it. Anyway, great show. I take it you are seeing Sabbath in Camden. I'm not looking forward to the parking situation there. I only saw one concert there before(Yes and Styx about five years ago)and don't remember any weird parking situation where I had to walk twenty minutes and pay thirty dollars. Not looking forward to that but even so it's worth it. I have lawn seats so if you see a tall bald guy with glasses by himself in a blue folding chair(more than likely although maybe i"ll find some people to mingle with)wearing a Rush t shirt(or black t shirt)that will possibly be me.

 

Oh, no I'm going to PNC next week. I bought the VIP parking, so that I can avoid the walking forever situation. And since the tix are free, it was ok to spend the money. (I'm currently unemployed) Anyway, have fun tomorrow.

I just now got a GA ticket at BB Kings for Trinity - Geoff Tate, Blaze Bayley and Ripper Owens, 11/27. I have no idea what they're going to do, but I'm a big GT fan, so it's all good.

Baroness in Charleston, SC on Sept 9

Heart, Joan Jett, Cheap Trick in Charlotte, NC ON Sept 16

Styx in Cherokee, NC on Oct 15

Marillion in Washington DC on Nov 5

 

oooh! I'm seeing Styx on 9/22 in NJ. Love Marillion, have never seen them.

Broke down and bought cheap seats to sabbath

 

I had good seats last time out, and times are tight but should be fun

 

Where? I won two for PNC in NJ next week, yay for me! Anyone else?

Fried egg sandwich on pumpernickel with cheese and ketchup.

 

Don't judge me.

I was there, didn't even know about them at all, but my friend (also a huge Rush fan) told me about it Saturday afternoon, and I love DT and have listened to some Kings X, so I was like sure, why not. And they were really good!

Steely Dan last night, crummy picture. I've never seen them, but they were great and their back up musicians were outstanding. Sick guitar solo in Bodhisattva. Steve Winwood opened, he did a lot of Traffic stuff. SD did mostly all their big hits, which was fine with me.

 

 

Laura, I just saw this.

 

I think I would have given almost anything to see both the Dan and Stevie Winwood. Love them both, and especially love Stevie with Traffic.

 

Did he do Low Spark of High Heeled Boys?

 

He did, yes. See, I'm a huge fan of his solo stuff, but not as big a fan of Traffic....but regardless, he was good.

Much belatedly, I saw The Jelly Jam last weekend in New Hope Pa! They were great!

 

And, I won tix to see Sabbath next month, very excited, I've never seen them all these years...

I put ketchup on my hotdogs, but I don't eat them often anyway. But if I do, they have to be Oscar Meyer. And yes, I know, it's all fake ingredients that will kill me, but I think I'm safe eating one or two a month.

I'm with ketchup & mustard myself. But if I don't have either, that's fine too. It's all about the meat for me anyway...or rather, the fake meat that'll kill me. I like that.

 

I probably have a hot dog about once a season and 99% of the time it's at the cinema. So I guess it'll be a slow, drawn out death by hot dog for me.

 

:hotdog: :D

The Rush tours I didn't go to. (And I regret not knowing about some tours in the early 80s because it was so hard to hear about them back then.)

 

Ultravox.

 

Metallica back in the 80s.

 

U2 when they played a free daytime show in SF somewhere around 1987. It was announced that morning on the radio, but I was already at work so I couldn't easily leave to go.

 

Ultravox! Cool.

 

I also regret so many Rush shows in the middle of their career, because at the time I wasn't going to shows alone, and had nobody to go with.

Caress of Steel is my favorite Rush album, without question.

I just had three Peppermint Oreos leftover from Christmas. They actually still tasted ok. Don't judge me.

 

The Oreos will do that.

Oreos judge people? ;)

 

LOL

Life cereal with some chia thrown in

What's "chia"? A kind of plant or vegetable?

 

It's a seed, they kind of expand a little bit with liquid. Good fiber and other stuff too. I'm far from a health nut, but it's an easy way to add something healthy in to what I'm eating sometimes.
