Well, this was my “home town” concert. I live about 45 miles NW of the city but I always say Chicago is my home base as there’s very few venues out in the suburbs. 🙁 And since it was local, I worked a bit (gotta pay for travel ya know 😉 ) Got home, ready […]
So…show #1 of Leg #2 LOL 🙂 I should probably put a disclaimer in here…This leg is going to be hectic as I’m working before Chicago and Milwaukee gigs and then driving up to MN with a friend so that’s that day. Staying up an extra day as said friend has never been to Mall […]
Gig #4 and the last in my “Leg #1” trip. Arrival into NYC wasn’t too bad except for a delay in traffic. Normally I wouldn’t have cared as I had plenty of time to get in, to hotel, to the NYC BaB store and back to hotel to get ready for the concert. However, my […]
Wow, what a night Boston was! But more of than a minute. Compared to the last 2 days, getting to Boston was a breeze! 2 short delays on the train but otherwise, whoo hoo, uneventful! Sun actually came out briefly the next morning for my walk around. I’d been to Boston before so had done […]
So…if my last blog sounded a bit off from my usual happy and excited self, sorry. But as it turned out, the fiasco of travel didn’t end when I went to bed Monday night. Though gotta say, my mentality was better yesturday. I actually got a bit slap happy at one point. I tend to […]
So I’m going to apologize right now for the lack of details and not as many pics and videos of this show. My brain was fried by the time I got to the venue (will explain in a moment) so all I wanted to do was try to come down and relax. I decided I […]
Wow, what a night! 🙂 But I’ll get to that in a bit LOL. Bexhill is a cute little city on the shore that I’d never been to. Didn’t remember OMD ever playing there either but couldn’t say 100%…but was pretty sure no. I had to say goodbye to Paula after we had had a […]
Well, after the super fun night with friends at Guildford, it was another fun day with Claudia as we had no gig on Sunday. Slept in til 8am, had a leisurely breakfast and then headed out to explore the town a bit. There’s an old castle that the main ruin wasn’t open, nor the museum, […]
I knew this show was going to have a lot of people I knew already but it ended up having a TON! 😮 😀 So first up was an early rise to catch a 6:30 bus into London and then change via tube to catch a train into Guildford. My German friend Claudia had arrived […]
Had a nice day off in Sheffield. Did some shopping, walked around to look at the city, even got to bed early LOL. 😉 In Reading, I was meeting up with an online friend and it was nice to put a face to the name! Nothing fancy for lunch but just a nice visit and […]
