So I woke up to a semi sunny day the next day and since I had a later train departure (Hull is only 1 hour 15 mins from York), I got adventurous and headed off to the York Designer Outlet where I hit the motherload of BaBs with some things not in the states yet. […]
Well, it’s that time again….an OMD UK tour LOL. I am only doing 6 gigs this round…small tour for me for sure…but ah well. Sadly, most of the friends I usually see the shows with are doing ones other than me. ☹ But have made a few new ones recently so will have them around […]
Well, it’s always sad for me to say goodbye to my sister tho I was glad I was having to get up early enough to be able to do it before she headed to work as she leaves early too. 🙁 Another day on the road ahead for the girls and I but not as […]
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 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…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 […]
