We should bring food...I'll bring something yummy to go with either the Colada or Sangria...what would that be????

AIN'T THAT A SHAME, that you can't come up with any Cheap Trick Songs off the top of your head! Why don't you SURRENDER and CRY, CRY about it! I'll still be eating salad while journey is playing or I can mix drinks.

IF YOU WANT MY LOVE, you can't have it, but I'll bring some hot wings and something sweet! There will be no crazy WILD THING dancing though without the umbrella in the drink!

and btw - just because I danced in Truckee to Surrender - doesn't mean I'm going crazy in Chula Vista!

I'll bring something to snack on as well. Sangria is on - brace yourselves.

It's THE DREAM POLICE, THEY'RE INSIDE OF MY HEAD ...that interfered with my ability to quote Cheap Trick lyrics (that and I wouldn't want to steal your thunder my friend)...

You are, after all, the GODDESS of Cheap Trick...

What's wrong with the line I COME TO YOU WITH OPEN ARMS. Is that wrong?

You guys are killing me with these lyrics!
I am sooo sad to say I am not going to be able to join you tomorrow. I have to have some emergency work done in my backyard and my handyman just called and the only time he can come do it is tomorrow afternoon :(

Have a BLAST and I can't wait to hear about it!! (And see pictures!)

I'm gonna hook up with my handyman tonight!

Speaking of Handyman - let's go see some JT (James Taylor) also! Stateline, Nevada on the 26th! Sounds like a road trip!

  1. Did you ever think when you were fluffing up your perm and padding your shoulders that decades later you'd still be just as excited to see these bands?!

  2. I am so jealous. We were Heart geeks back in the day. Enjoy yourselves.

    Say hi to my husband, too. I'm not sure where he's sitting, but he got ONE ticket from a business associate. Just one. *GAH*

    I've seen Heart and Cheap Trick a bunch of times, but would you believe I've never seen Journey???

    I look forward to your concert report! Enjoy!
