Nostalgic Night

Thanks to Bryan's keen ears, Brad and I were able to get tickets to go see AMERICA in concert last weekend.  Holy Schmoly!  I felt like a teenager again!  They were great - their songs transformed me back into the teenager whose biggest problem was not having a date for the weekend.  Brad has raised our kids on America songs - they all can play them, sing the melody, the harmony, and even make up more harmonies to go along.  They know all the words.  All this makes them more a product of the 70s than I am!  

The concert was held at The Cannery in North Las Vegas.  It was nearly 100 degrees, so I was SO glad for the frozen wash cloths they were handing out.  The venue was small, so it felt intimate.  I looked all around once we took our seats and commented to Brad, "everyone here is SO OLD! - glad we're not that old!"  It would have been a perfect night, but the lady sitting next to me needed 2 seats, so she used mine.  It was already killer hot - she had to put her arm around me to fit.  It was rather uncomfortable.  

Still, it was a great night out together.  Afterward, we joined the line at the CD & t-shirt table to say a quick "hello" and get autographs.  We were near the front of the line (thanks to sitting in the back at the concert :)  Back in 1990 when AMERICA came to Guam for a concert, Brad was Dewey's divemaster when he joined Micronesian Divers Assoc. for a day of diving.  After the concert the 3 of them had a good time reminiscing about it.

THANKS FOR A FUN NIGHT, Brad!
