The 25 Bands for October 01, 2007

Here's how it works. Copy this list. Leave in the bands you've seen perform live. Delete the ones you haven't and add new ones that you have seen until you reach 25. An asterisk means the previous person had it on their list. Two asterisks means the last two people who did this before you had that band on their list.

I had to scratch my head to come up with my list too. My age really shows....


1. U2**
2. The Who

3. Stray Cats

4. The Pretenders

5. Styx*
7. Foreigner*
8. Rocko and the Devils**
9. Pearl Jam**
10. ZZ Top
11. Michael Buble’
12. The Eagles
13. Kings of Leon
14. Dashboard Confessional
15. Elton John
16. AC/DC

who cares, you saw The Eagles!!!!
ALOHA from Hawaii!

Yes, from Hawaii. A few weeks ago, after working solidly for the past two months, which of course meant waking up to sub-freezing tempertures, scraping windshields and driving on packed ice and snow I knew i needed sun. I was just chilled to the bone, but not only physically but emotionally. The dreariness of not seeing the sun for the past two months as my day starts and ends in darkness just took its toll. I needed to ecape to someplace warm!

My funds were limited though...like everyone else in January, I felt that post-Christmas pinch. And becuase of that, I really needed to work and not take time off. But the pull of the sun was stronger so I started looking at my frequent flyer miles....

I looked at Florida and Mexico. There was nothing at all that did not include flying nearly 20 hours for a few days on the beach. I was about ready to just chuck the whole idea until Jim suggested I look into Hawaii. Usually it takes a big chunk of miles to get to the islands, but to my surprise, I needed only 40 thousand miles a piece for non-stop fare to Honolulu! I quickly bought three tickets to Oahu, leaving on Thursday and returning Monday Night/early Tuesday morning.

So my nice long weekend in warm, sunny Waikiki started last night. To get by on the cheap, we are staying in Waikiki and its just as congested, busy and full of life as I remember. Lots of construction and noise, but that refreshing Hawaiian congeniality and warmth is always not too far from the surface. We don't have much plans...we just finished breakfast and our biggest decison this morning is beach or pool. And then to recharge my batteries so I can live through another two months of winter!

Remember next time, I sometimes qualify as carry-on luggage.

Hope the trip was all you needed. It's hard to remember the sun these days -- so glad you got away for some r&r.
