    I went to Bruce 8/25 and while I loved it, I really wish I went to 8/30
    My seats on 8/23 were 3 rows from the top but I had a blast and loved it. I lucked into GA tickets in the front section through a guy at work who had a hookup with the venue for the 8/30 show. The combination of the awesome tickets and the rare setlist on 8/30 made it my top show of the year :smiley:

    Looking back, it was a pretty tame year for concerts, but a lot of that is because of kids. I think our 7 and 3 year old were at all of these except 2. Love to expose them to live music!

    1. The Head & the Heart - Minneapolis
    2. Trampled By Turtles - Duluth
    3. Charlie Parr (x2) - MN
    4. The Okee Dokee Brothers (Kids love them) - St. Paul

    We did a lot more theatrical/play shows this year than concerts. My wife went to The Doobie Brothers & Journey and Indigo Girls with friends. She also scored us complimentary passes to one of the final A Prairie Home Companion shows with Garrison Keillor by writing an email to his secretary because our 7 year old loved his show and tickets were insane. At the rehearsal they surprised us with on stage tickets for the live show and our son got to meet the cast at the end. So cool!

    Hoping for some PJ in 2017!
    It's a hopeless situation...
