What was your high points this year and low ones. My lows ones were unfortunatlely losing my sister/niece and 3 friends. High points following the Stones in Europe and trading music (which btw was my best year ever, thanks everyone). Have a great New Year everyone.

Pivately only highs: 10 concerts in Europe, 25 in 3 years during Bigger Bang. Seeing so many nice people, met new people and saw old friends again.
Went to many different places we would not have gone the summer.
The only low: work sucks and I'm hoping to get a new job in 2008.

High - almost 90 gigs most of which I enjoyed immensly.

Low - a piece of equipment dying, pretty much the rest of my regular routine, no Hanoi Rocks U.S. tour yet again. Pretty trivial stuff really.

OK, I gotta tell a true story here.

A bartender friend of mine had the rear end in his
Chevrolet go out on him.
I referred him to a friend of mine that specializes
in automotive differentials.
Later, I walk into the bar and say (loudly) "Jack, how's
your rear end? Did Steve take care of you?"

The place fell silent for a few seconds. Most people
there knew each other and had a good laugh when they
remembered Jack's car was in the shop for a blown-up
rear end!

As for my own personal highs and lows. Looking back,it was fairly uneventful with out too many peaks and valleys. Basicly,still trying to nurse along a nice little inheritance from a few years ago and trying to make the right decions with my money. With varying degrees of success.

Highs - more than I can remember.

Lows - too few to think about.

If that doesn't define a great year, what does? The only thing left to do is remember the people who were there and who helped make some of the good times truly great. 2007 was a year of incredible music and memories, and I had the pleasure of getting to know or meet a lot of fine folks from IORR - cheers to you all! Toronto Gal was truly blessed in '07.
