SUMMERFEST

My wife had her first Summerfest experience ysterday. We both also had our first Summerfest sunburn experience too. We saw a few local guys just tearing up the stage and a few that we thought were ok. We saw a band called "The Raid" which did 80's hair band music. They were also guys my age...and even my build. But they were having fun and it so showed in their music. Now to try and figure out when they play again, because of course no website. But we also saw a band called Sunspot and they ruled. They impressed us enough to buy 2 of their CD's. There really weren't any major acts we wanted to see, so we left. We went swimmimg for about an hour than came home. Happy 4th o' July.

To Be 6 and 34 years old...again...for the first time...up up and away

Over the weekend, I aw Superman Returns. I was floored. I was astonished. I was amazed. I felt 6 years old again. I felt 34. It was like watching a movie that embraced the past and at the same time forged a new path for the future. It was'nt what I ecpected...but by god it was what that franchise needed. So go out and see the movie.
