Coincidentally, we went to Circuit City today, I want to get a video camera - can't believe we never got one! - and I wandered into the special room where they have the home theater sized TVs with surround sound - guess who was playing on DVD? The Eagles, doing an acoustic version of Hotel California. Sounded pretty good. We still have the old Advents we got before we were married. Had to replace the woofers, but otherwise, still work good. When the boys spend the night at Grandmother's, Chris likes to crank it up and play music until the wee hours.
We saw a local band at the Beer Festival that wasn't bad, but the crowd wasn't there for the music. No one was dancing, or even moving, or even paying attention, really and we started to leave to get more beer, but for the last number they did Fleetwood Mac's Rattlesnake Shake. I've posted before how much I love early Fleetwood Mac, when Peter Green was their lead guitar, and I know ALL the words, so I started singing and shaking way back in the crowd, and Chris and I were the only ones moving our bodies to the music. The lead singer looked a little surprised. Hell, that song came out thirty years ago, what does he expect? |
