We got free tickets to Boz Skaggs last week and went. I was a little disappointed. I didn't really know much of the music and he seemed to be a bit of a snob. I think I may have even spelled his name wrong. Shame on me! We are going to see another oldies band in June. Lets see if you can guess. They began down under.

men at work? INXS?

I went to a concert, well a few that was a part of a big youth conference. I saw Leeland, and Jeremy Camp. I loved it. Jeremy camp is one of my favorite singers so it was great to see him in concert.

i love to see my favourite bands and artists performing live, especially at summer festivals.

It was 2005 my husband and I went to "Memphis in May" and we saw several band concerts including Cold Play, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Nelly. We had a blast and a weekend full of memories.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

i love coldplay, one of my favourite bands : )

it's been years since i went anywhere like that. the last person i think i saw in concert was tammy wynette. i'm a big country music fan. i have never been to the theatre. don't have anything like that around here,probably wouldn't go if we did.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

i've never been to theatre but i'd like to try it at least once.


myLot reputation of 96/100. ANTIQUELADY (16514)   ranked 851 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

I think that the last concert that we went to (Husband and Me) was either Hank Jr., Or Bucky Covinton....( we went to both last summer)

A few months ago my daughter in-law wanted to go to the opera, and my son did not want to go so i went with her..It was just a college production, but it was pretty good.

Sporting event....Went to the night Race (NASCAR) Last summer in Bristol, Tn. went with husband, and a few friends.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

we did a trip from work to wimbledon greyhound racing, i'd recommend that to anyone, great fun : )

6. myLot reputation of 90/100. revellanotvanella (1957)   ranked 488 out of 7,514 in enjoy life   3 years ago

I caught this band at a PA bar in Villanova district and I really liked it because they were psychodelic sounding and it was obvious they had their own following because there was all these grateful dead shirts on everybody. I just took pictures and unfortunately too drunk to get their names but Im sure Ill find out about them in the future and see them in my own town. It was funny because it happened the same day of the NCCA championships (thats why we were up there) and it was like the band followers were waiting for the game to be over so the band could play and those watching the game upset because the band started playing and they couldn't hear the game, lol, we were kind of both.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

lol. i've been to a gig before where most people turned up to see the support act (james)
when the headlining artist (david bowie) came on the arena was half empty, unbelievable!


myLot reputation of 90/100. revellanotvanella (1957)   ranked 488 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

isnt it funny how things work sometimes?!


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

very funny! i'd love to go to a festival this summer but i have too many other things to do and not much noney : (

um..last show i went to was a local band called "the neighborhoods".
it was kind of a reunion show,they really hadn't played out much in 10 years.

myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

i like to check out local bands as much as possible, i'd go to a gig every night if i could happy

My last one as you know was on Monday the 11th, at Brixton academy. For others who won't know, I went to see The Specials play at their 30 year reunion.

I feel really privileged as they were way before my time but I got to enjoy it as if it was still 30 years ago, it was great being around all the fans who grew up listening to them.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

i'm glad you enjoyed it. last night at coventry was really good, one of the best gigs ever.


myLot reputation of 86/100. Gorjess (1071)  3 years ago

My boyfriend (Luke- so I don't have to keep sayin my boyfriend) said it was the best gig he has ever been to, he absolutely loved it, and lost his voice by the first 15 minutes!


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

hahaha i know how he feels, i know all the words to most of the songs and i was a bit hoarse by the thme we left coventry happy


myLot reputation of 86/100. Gorjess (1071)  3 years ago

Thanks for the best response, Luke is looking for the next gig already. I think he has found two things on one weekend, so a Ska weekend is on it's way.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

enjoy! ska is timeless. i cant believe it's nearly 30 years since i bought gangsters, the single that really kick started uk ska. i feel old but happy happy

It was an okay concert.. But I would like to see the Pussycat Dolls this June.. I can't wait to get my VIP tickets.. I'll be with my sister again.. Hopefully my friend could join us too.. happy

Never been to one.
I have performed myself, for birthday parties.
But never attended one from someone else.
I don't like big crowds.
When I am on stage, I have room.
I need to be able to move around.

Take care.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

do you sing or do you play an instrument?


myLot reputation of 90/100. Margajoe (2447)   ranked 143 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

I write and compose my own music.
Been doing this since I was in my 20's.
It is not professional, though some would disagree.
I write songs in English mostly, about life and situations.
Most everyone can relate to the lyrics.
I have played in Pubs and on parties.
But, not often anymore, as I feel I am getting too old. hahaha!
Some times I will just play in my living room when I am alone.
I play guitar, but only the basic accords.
I also have an electric guitar that I played for the first time on a party last Sept.
It was a total hit! Really a groovy feeling. hahaha!

I have always been a little insecure about performing, as my family in Holland always told me to grow up. hahaha!
But, the people here seem to like it. hahaha! Must be the English.
Take care.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

i admire people who can perform in front of others.

you sound very interesting, i'd love to hear you play.

maybe you could make a little video and send it to me, i could be your agent hehehe lol


myLot reputation of 90/100. Margajoe (2447)   ranked 143 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

Let's make some money, yesyesyes!!! w00t
If I were younger that would be a good idea.
But, I think England has a lot of singers that sing in English, I would not have a chance. hahaha!

Take care.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

hahaha, i could be the judge of that, england has many singers but too many cpoy others and there's not much originality now.

and think of the money, you wouldn't have to think about bungee jumping...lol lol


myLot reputation of 90/100. Margajoe (2447)   ranked 143 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

You got a point there, I will start practicing again.
I first need some new equipment, then if you remind me in about a month.
I could send you a cassette. If you want too.
Then you could be the judge , hahaha!
Take care my agent.


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

sounds like a good idea, i'll remind you in a few weeks wink


myLot reputation of 90/100. Margajoe (2447)   ranked 143 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

Okay, then I will start practicing again starting Wednesday.
I have to go to the specialist on Tuesday, they are going to take my nerves, see if my back has gotten worse. If so, I get another operation. I would so like to be without pain again. Oh well, there are worse things in life. So Wednesday.wink


myLot reputation of 68/100. robert67 (1340)  3 years ago

do you have sciatica?

good luck, i hope things get better.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Margajoe (2447)   ranked 143 out of 7,514 in enjoy life  3 years ago

Thank-you.
Yes it does seem to be the same. I called it Hernia, but hernia has also got to do with sciatica. I looked it up. I send you some information about that.
Take care.
