So, after a fun night in Charlotte, Maria, Marilyn and I hopped into a car for the drive to Nashville. As I have mentioned before in some of my blogs, I collect Build A Bears so I had 3 stores I wanted to stop at to look for location exclusives and get my Pawsport stamped […]
Well, OMD are on an American tour with B-52s and Berlin but not only am I not a fan of B52s, not much of a fan of Berlin either so originally didn’t think I’d see them at all this time around (no Chicago date even so…) BUT, it got announced that they were going to […]
Day 2… first I should probably apologize now as I won’t have as many specific quotes as last night but I think I was so intent on watching the orchestra and soaking it all in, I remember more the experience as a WHOLE in some ways vs. specific things said. But I WILL have some […]
So…my VERY first time seeing OMD play with an orchestra. I had SO wanted to go to the one in 2009 but my job was such that I wasn’t able to take as many trips and I had tickets booked already to go see them later in the year when they opened for Simple Minds. […]
Well…final show of the tour! Bitter sweet for sure! I woke up realizing it was going to be over soon and admittedly got a little sad. But…been in this spot before as I know many have so…I knew the day and night was going to be special no matter what! 😀 I hit a donut […]
So…day 2 in FL and it was a hot, humid one for sure! I made a couple stops along the way before arriving to my hotel. Nothing fancy and about 18 miles away from downtown St. Petersburg and the venue but…meh, I had a rental car so I didn’t care LOL. What I DID care […]
And…back on the road for the final leg (for EVERYONE LOL) of the OMD tour. 3 shows in sunny FL. I had an early flight that originally seemed like it was going to be late due to being “about 12th in line to take off so we’ll be sitting here at least the next 20 […]
So gotta say, it’s nice to be in a warm state and not having to worry about snow storms LOL. I walked out of Mark’s house (he was kind enough to host me for both Wednesday and Thursday night) to find it quite warm…NO need for my jacket today! 🙂 First was a stop at […]
So…tour leg #3 for me and the shortest of the 4 LOL. It almost didn’t even happen as I had been going back and forth about it. San D. and Anaheim were sold out by the time I looked into buying tickets (some life issues occured so where I would have normally jumped on buying […]
#4 and final show of my second OMD tour leg for me. This time I had my friend Cate coming up with me though she wasn’t going to see the show since she just saw the Chicago one on Friday. We were staying an extra day to hit Mall of America as Cate had never […]
