Last Friday, my husband and I drove down to Glendale (Phoenix), Arizona to go and see Bruce and the E Street Band. Yes, the bills and rent were paid and I've been eating a lot of soup and noodles just so we could go (sacrifices must be made). That is how important it is for me to see The Boss. They have this system for people who have general admission tickets, you get to the arena between 2-5pm and get a wristband with a number on it. At about 5.30 you line up and a guy tells you how many are allowed in the "pit" for that nights show. Friday it was 400 and then they call a number and the first 400 after that number get in. The number was 161 and our numbers were 315 and 316 so we were in. Ok, so we weren't as close as we were in the above pic but still pretty darn close. That is why I used that photo. It was taken last year in Kansas City and if you look at the bottom where the Security guy is, to the right is a redhead and a guy in a black t-shirt....that's us. Now, I may never get that close again but I'm sure as heck gonna try every chance I get.
Without music in my life I probably would never have done the things I've done or become the person that I am or I might very well have not even been here at all. This is why I love music so much and why it has meant what it has to me throughout my life...it has made me feel alive. So as Bruce would say......
I'm jealous! Those guys rock! Glad you enjoyed it!
