    After hearing the Master Blaster sing on Saturday night , I think it's time for choruses of "Let Mike Sing" to ring out in venues from WPB to Mansfield. I'm still on cloud ten , nine is too low a number, after the weekend. Can't wait to do it all again next year.

    Totaly different styles... can't compare the two shows, I loved the raw live energy of FTM, and I loved the fuller old school sound of the UFO rumble... They reminded me of Spinal Tap :) I'm just too lucky to get Rock Bottom twice in one week!

    I apologize to Chris Adams profusely in advance, but the Seattlest hit the nail right on the head with their review of the Feral Children. I have thought long and hard about commenting on this as to not step on any toes, but someone needs to say something! Chris, what were you thinking????

    Bah

    Love,

    Wow. What a great show. I can easily say the most fun that my husband and I have had in over 10 years. Many thanks to Wishlist and CCFA.

    So,the "meet & greet" was more of a autograph signing & photo...but the in and out priveledges were very cool. Nice to walk by the big long line of folks waiting to get in. I now have enough t-shirts to sleep in for years ;) And I haven't yet broken into my books or posters, should be fun when I finally do.

    Mike signed my Drop in the Park shirt telling us how the band was bummed that Seattle made them bus people to the show and wrote "busses suck" on my shirt with his signature. Nice :)

    The bands were great. Kristen Ward had a great blues sound, nice opener. Shadow's Hendrix tribute was a lot of fun - Mike was screaming on the guitar! Feral Children was ok - very interesting drumming, but really felt like they needed a guitar player. However, that could have been part of how the sound was - we were on the right of the stage and had a hard time hearing any guitar at all.

    Then Flight to Mars got up there and we had a rocking time :) I was able to get second to the front by the end of the show, however, we were opposite from Mike's side of the stage - again, having a hard time hearing his guitar. And holy cow - was that bass player stoned LOL I don't know what he was on - but I want some! All in all, it was a great time. Thanks, Mike :)

    It was good to see some of you again, and to meet new folks. And thanks to the guy with the cigars - holy moly. That was crazy!

    I dare not say why this is funny, but MY GOD it is!! =))))

    HAHAHAH!!!! I think he was a willing participant in the cigarfest that was going on..

    I have NOT unrolled my poster to even look at it. Did we all get the same poster? don't ask me why, I was waiting for the right moment...
