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 […]
Gig #3, jolly Ol’ Nottingham, city of Robin Hood. 🙂 Actually had a really lovely day prior too as my friends Paula and Wendy came into some spare tickets from someone else so we were all going to hang and then go together. Paula and I had a lovely meal and chat at a place […]
Man, I’m telling ya, Leicester was an interesting day/night in many a way LOL. 🙂 So after Cambridge, the band had a night off but I popped on over to Nottingham to see the final Blancmange show on his tour. Great fun! 🙂 Then it was off to Leicester via National Express. Gotta say, was […]
So my UK OMD tour adventure is starting in Cambridge..well, gig wise. I first had a little time in London as my flight was quite the early one. Not used to leaving Chicago at 6:05pm. Normally I head out around 8:45-10pm so…this early flight made it feel like I was taking a late afternoon nap […]
