I got DC tickets.

I just got tickets for Clapton & Winwood in DC. Top price for tickets were $158, and then $88. I got some good seats in sectioin 109 for $88. IF you paid me $500 I still wouldn't go see Michael Jackson. His nose might fall off in the middle of the concert and I don't need to see him grab his balls either. I can't imagine one month of MJ in England at those prices. I do

Outstanding--I really liked the Buddy Guy piece, it really shows that they are still a great blues band. Chistina was cool, she held her own against Mick and was just sexy enough. I really enjoued, You Got the Silver, wonderful guitar playing from Ronnie. A masterpiece.

My wife is going to graduate school so she has to write a paper this weekend.I have to get out of the house. I will do all the food shopping, drop the clothes at the dry cleaner, do the banking. I will also take in a movie. I'm thinking about 10,000 BC which appears to be pretty stupid, but I need a pretty stupid movie right now, my job has been realtively stressful lately. What are you

Since things are a bit quiet I thought we could share some of undiscovered gems. My Blues artist gem is Terry Garland. I've seen him live once,really wonderful. You can fins his cd's on e-bay or amazon and he has a yahoo group and web site that lists his shows. He usually plays in the Richamond area and travels to Pennsylvania to play sometimes. I highly recommend him. Who are you

I've owned it for years, its wonderful. I always liked the Band, regret that I never saw them in person. I have a wonderful bootleg of a concert they did in Chicago. I have all their CD's. I was at the movies last week and they had a preview of the the movie, it look out as good as the Last Waltz. If you pay attention to the end of some of Scorsecee's movies you will occasionally s

This is my all time favorite Rolling Stone song. I loved it the first time I heard it and it only gets better with time. I've seen it twice live and was thrilled. My interpretation of the song, is that its about despair and the worst things about the world, but its all made right somehow by love. Chris

I saw Dylan Saturday nite, sorry I didn't get the set list, bt he did Like a Rolling Stone and All Along the Watchtower. His voice is pretty well shot, but his band is great. The tickets were $47.00 but the beer was $7.00/bottle. Great little baseball stadium. If you et a chance to see him, its a nice concert, three openers, you get your monies worth. Next concert, Dr. John in November.

Thanks for the tips...Saw the Stones in DC at the beginning of the tour, wish they were coming back for one more time, but at least I got to see them again. Going to see Dylan on Saturday and Dr. John in November, that will finally blow all my concert money for the year. Also if you like the blues check out Terry Garland, I saw him in Maryland one nite for $12, great blues guy. Thanks again C

I've met Stones Doug and he is a real decent guy. I think all this stuff about boycotts is just crazy. I check both boards and comment on both. I like talking to people all over the world. I set up a nice trade with someone in France during their last tour and it worked out fine.
