When I was in college, we learned quickly that we could go to a concert, stand outside, and very soon after the band started, a couple would walk out and we would ask for their tickets. They said sure. So we saw Journey that way. There were others we saw that I don’t remember right now. I saw a number of concerts at college, Elton John…[Read more]

That is a great story. You witnessed history in the making word.

Gibbon’s voice was not on for sure, but he was playing guitar pretty goodly. They were fun. My wife even noticed the 15 string bass the new guy plays for a joke. I’ve seen pics and read about it. They did it for a joke. First song was played on that and we never saw it again after that. But it is pretty funny looking.

I have to say,…[Read more]

The ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd was a great concert and the weather held, so it was really nice. I liked ZZ Top, but Billy Gibbon’s voice is really rough now, could barely hear him. I thought Lynyrd Skynyrd just tried too hard, but they played well too. However the guy that took Gary Rossington’s place had his guitar turned down to much. I’m…[Read more]

Yes, the recitals are excruciating!! My wife and I are going to go see ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd on Saturday. It was supposed to rain and be cold. Now it is not supposed to rain and be semi warm. So hopefully Saturday will be pretty good word.

That sounds like fun. We have one granddaughter that has played volleyball but seems to not to want to pursue that in HS. We have younger grand kids that are not ready for sports much. The 4 year old does dance. Quite the deal when they can hardly balance word!!

mspart

Yep, family matters for sure. That’s why we are staying put word. Rain on Sat, cooling temps.

mspart

Move here and you will get rain. All fall, winter, and spring long. Summers are drier word.

I think in the past when they do Tush, they pipe in Dusty’s vocals cause Billy surely can’t do that word.

I think ZZ Top would be better 20 years ago. But I have read a few reviews and they play at tempo and are still pretty good. LS just isn’t the same but they have everyone there that has been there for the last 10 years so they should be good.

Just concerned it will rain and be cold. Hopefully I’m under cover. They have that here because…[Read more]

Agree. We are going to a ZZ Top/ Lynyrd Skynyrd concert at an amphitheater on 21st. Highs for 10 days from now are projected to be 60 and they are steadily dropping to that point. I hope we get a warm and dry day.

I have not seen ZZ Top and am looking forward to it. I say the LS tribute band in 87 with all the surviving members minus…[Read more]

It is supposed to be 91 here today. That is really hot for here. But then the temps fall for the next 10 days. Fall is coming word.

Ha ha, ain’t that the way. No way I treated my parents so brusquely. No way word.

Yes, the wedding went well. It was great in fact. They are now in wedded bliss. After that we took our youngest son to Pullman where he will be going to school. He is doing a Community college on the WSU campus. He really wanted us to leave, embarrassing parents and all you know. I get that. We came back home yesterday. Now we have…[Read more]

Our #3 son is getting married tomorrow. Big wedding party tonight at our place. I took the last 2 days off to get the place spruced up word.

My #3 son gets married on Saturday. We went to dinner last night with his new in-laws. Nice people. It was a good evening word.

mspart

Yeah, for sure a lot of dough to put out for green grass. The last few years ours has gone black, like it was burned by fire. Very odd for PNW. We’ve had 1 inch of rain so far and we are supposed to get another inch today and tomorrow. Gonna be wet and cold here. Next week temps go up again. Looking forward to the weekend word.

mspart

Yes, there is that. Now the rain is forecast for the next 3 days. Seems like it is coming back a bit earlier than usual. But to be honest, we need the water. Our lawn is brown. We have to water the plants to a high dollar number. Temps have lowered also, which is good. #3 son getting married in a little more than a week. Things are…[Read more]

We have 3 dogs buried here. Those were pretty emotional things to do quite honestly. My daughter in law who is a vet tech suggested I help the process along. I probably should but can’t do that. But the bunny is not doing well. I haven’t yet seen her this morning, but I will soon. We have been moving her from outside to a cage inside…[Read more]

Well, the rain has started. We had a very rare electrical storm Saturday night. Apparently 1150 lightning strikes, very unusual. It was fairly mild in view of the storms we saw in MN when we lived there from 94-01. Those were some crazy storms. Anyway, we received 0.95 inches in our area. A lot of water came down. It is raining again…[Read more]
