Much better! This is more what I had in mind.

The Greek was sold out. We got there 1.5 hours early hoping to get a good disabled parking spot for Mom. There was actually quiet a few people already. The Greek is in the hills so it was fairly easy for her to walk down to the entrance but a bit tougher to get back uphill afterwards. We had spicy grilled hot dogs for dinner, then I bought a few t-shirts and a program. There was a full moon out later and the night cooled off nicely. Moisture! There was condensation! *g*

The Young Dubliners were good and had the crowd clapping along. They had Eric Rigler, who "is the piper behind such brilliant soundracks as Braveheart and Titanic." I tried to phone my good friend Bunny, who would REALLY have liked to have been there, to let her hear what she was missing but I got a No Signal on my phone. Drats!

Tull was in fine form. The acoustics were so much better. BIG difference. At the end of the concert they all were beaming from ear to ear. The set list was the same except we got Nursie tonight. Lovely version. :)

The crowd was fairly decent; not too rowdy. Unfortunately, my row had more than their fair share of people physically unable to sit for 105 minutes without getting a beer or having to go pee. I think I had to stand at least eight times to let people go past. Then there was the guy in front of Mom who brought his kid who was maybe eight-ten. The kid liked a few songs but in between he was playing a game on his dad's iphone or itouch. That wouldn't have been so bad except it's illumination is quite bright when one is in the dark. Annoying. Why can't people go to the concert sit still and listen?

But aside from that, it was a wonderful evening of great music. We're very happy right now. :)

This vid is to the song, Get My Picture (on the cover of Rolling Stone.) It's very well done, humorous, treating our team of 1969 as rock stars. As an extra treat, the vidders have mocked up four Rolling Stone covers and as the inside pages flip past, you can hit the pause button to read their content. My favorite page was an ad from the System Lords about Daniel--Wanted: Dead or Alive. *g*

This vid is guaranteed to make you smile.

It's by by iiiionly & Darcy, and can be found here:

It's under Gen Vids, titled Rolling Stone.

Feel free to pass the url to those that will enjoy it.

Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test...

NFPS - The Guru

Nature, Foreground, Big Picture, and Shape

You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on what's in front of you (the foreground) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the shapes around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to deal directly with whatever comes your way without dealing with speculating possibilities or outcomes you can't control. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You prefer a structured environment within which to live and you like things to be predictable.
