    Turning 55 in March and already have my tickets for Wrigley. This will be #41. I'm a Partner in a regional CPA firm in Virginia and my other partners just don't get it. So as they plan the same family vacation, at the same beach house, year after year...I sit waiting for the band to announce their Fall tour so I can plan my vacation schedule.

    As a side not, I plan on making it four years in a row of going out for the Bridge School Benefit weekend...sure hope the boys play there this year.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
    arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
    slide in sideways, BBQ sandwich in one hand, cold beer in the other,
    body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "Woo Hoo what a
    ride"!

    I'm in the 30 gap.
    I told my doctor during a physical today, "I just had that birthday and I really feel old."

    He replied , "I have shoes older than you... :lol: ...
    :D

    The other day my 18 year old nephew said something along the lines of that he was an adult and knew everything, to which I replied "I have tattoos older than you!".

    Stickman tattoo btw. :D

    That is really awesome! You are very Fortunate! What are the holidays like at your house???
    My brother won't drive on an interstate, and my mom doesn't like Crowds (unless it was actually a sports game).

    I would have to skype my family from my seat, if I wished for them to join me.

    That really makes a great Friday! Nice story. Thank you for sharing :)

    I remember the day Ten was released.
    My little brother lived in Port Orchard Wa. in the late 80's/early 90's and would call me and tell me about all these bad-ass bands he was seeing in the clubs in Seattle........ahhhhh good days indeed.

    This makes me smile for so many reasons: Mom of 4, teacher, avid PJ fan. I can relate! just turned 40, mom of 2, also work in the schools

    Love these words from Eddie at his Vegas show on 11/1/12 when talking about "Just Breathe:" "That's not just a love song written for a good woman who deserves it, or just on a romantic level...it's actually more about... a love song for a woman who's uh uh a mother who's unselfish and gives so much to her kids. um... It's kind of the only way it can be... and that's.. the dad can follow the lead."

    and Eddie in the Iconoclasts episode with Laird Hamilton: "Can't get mad too at the wind, it's like getting mad at your mom... can't do it."

    Wish I knew more PJ fans with family, if only to commiserate our limited time & funds to see Our band and to talk about the way their music has changed since four of five are now dads.

    I'd go nuts without the boots to relive & imagine.[/quote]




    Yup. Agreed, on all counts. :)

    Have been a fan since very early 1992 when my boyfriend's friend handed me a BASF cassette onto which he'd recorded Ten for me, and said, "Listen to this, it's your new favourite band. I promise." He was not wrong!

    Have seen them 6 times, first in August 1993, most recently in Sept. 2011 (not counting RNDM in Nov. 2012), hoping for a 7th this summer- trying my luck with public on-sale, having been shut out in the lottery :? .
    Love this...good luck tomorrow


    Thank you!
