Friday wifey and I (along with a couple of friends) went to a hockey game. By the third period I was predicting (quite accurately) who was going to be involved in some fisticuffs. I was like Carnac (who knows if that is spelled correctly).
I like hockey. Growing up in the south I dont understand all of the rules but I still enjoy watching it. We bought tickets to several games so hopefully I can learn more of the details this season. I like the speed and the strategy involved with it.
Last night we went to see the Allman Brothers. Lynard Skynard was supposed to have co-headlined the show but canceled due to pollyps on the singer's vocal cords. The show was winding down and wifey asked what I thought would be the encore. "Well they havent done Sweet Melissa," I said. "But that is kinda slow for an encore. My money is on Whipping Post." Sure enough they came back and played Melissa and then Whipping Post. I wish I had this kind of luck picking lottery numbers...
One thing you see at a lot of shows nowdays is live CD's of the show you are at. Black Crowes had this option when we saw them early this summer and the Brothers had it last night. You pay $25 or so before the show and by the time you are walking out, they are handing you a cd (2 in the case of the Crowes, 3 for last night) to enjoy. How cool is that?
