Tuesday afternoon I headed back up to Saratoga for another musical experience. Unlike the Allman Brothers or Santana, the bands on the bill were completely new to me. The event, Mayhem Fest, was essentially a Heavy Metal extravaganza, a genre I have very little no experience with, truth be told. But there I was, me … Continue reading Mayhem? Yes. Music? I’m not sure.

Allman Brothers and Santana at SPAC – 7/27/12
I had a chance to finally get to a show last night at SPAC - first of the season.

A mere 18 months after purchasing our tickets, Griffin and I, at long last, drove north to catch Bono and the boys live at the Hippodrome. As I explained to G, leaving the country to see a U2 show at the ripe old age of 12, is an experience not to be belittled - nor … Continue reading Roadtrip Montreal!
