[MojoAlbum]

I couldn't post on that old thread. My heart literally flip flopped when you made that first post!  We've came a long way west coast youngin!  

[MojoAlbum]

Thankfully I spend most every weekend at my fellas house. It's my safe place. Just me and him. The dog. Sometimes two dogs. It's like an instant life shut down. Very healing for me. I'm thanking God for this man every day. He lets me be just me.
I may gain some weight though!  And I'm going through bottles of cleaning solution keeping myself busy. I'm battling some emotional moments. The tears from nowhere are the one thing that drives me nuts!  

[WantARealLife85]

Tom Petty and the HB are in my top three best concerts ever!!!! He's coming out with a new album soon. I am sure a tour will follow. Saw him at the Jones Beach Theatre, 5th row center. Lucinda Williams opened for him.  She's GREAT as well!!!! What a great show!!

[zerokewl123]

[WantARealLife85]

O man music festivals are best I camped out all four days 10 yrs straight at country thunder in az from 11 to 21 sooooo fun ESP yr ten lol... Age factor... But next yr I was into other stupid things.... Time to get back to those music festivals they happen all. The time here in CALI it seems like....

[MojoAlbum]

I'm not sure a concert comes within a 100 miles of me. Lol. Or that I wouldn't be terrified of that many people in one place!  But, I can rock some pandora!  
Today is day 12!  Who would have thought?  All the times I postponed and thought it would be too hard?  Lol. If I only knew that 12 days later I would be enjoying the day on the front steps. Brisket on the smoker. German choc cake waiting on me in the kitchen. I had forgotten.
I'd take the concert scariness risk to see Tom Petty!  I tried to catch the Mojo tour, but it was too far for me with the best friends health.
My music is playing!!!  Life is good. And your east coast momma is so flipping proud of you!!!

I just had a flashback to seeing dive bands. Shout, shout at the Angel, hold back the hands of time. That was an old Butthole Surfers song, back when they where a funk band, nobody knew them back in the early 80's. So many good memories.

[weaver71]

Growing up in Austin, then living all over Cali, I've seen more bands than I can remember. I was talking to my wife about Austin Aqua Festival, it doesn't happen anymore, but it was awesome. I saw Santana, Roger Miller, Cheap Trick, Willie Nelson, Asleep at the Wheel, Paula Abdul, and a bunch of amazing small time artists in one night. That Bill Graham memorial was Journey, Jackson Brown, Bobby McFerran, The Grateful Dead, Crosby Still Nash and Young, Tracy Chapman, Robin Williams did a skit, and....I can't even remember all of it. Bill Graham was the greatest concert promoter of all time, so many people influenced by that man. Austin is a little bit of everything, Country, blues, rock, jazz, heavy metal, punk rock, you name it. I like it all, if it's done well. I miss music festivals, they seem to be fading away. Angels Camp is pretty good, that's close to you. I saw Galactic play a 4 hour show there, super funky, then they played an encore until sunrise. I miss the Grateful Dead, they really knew how to throw a party. Phish is pretty cool, but they're no Gerry Garcia. I want to go to Terrapin Station one more time. Ahhhh, the good ole days.
