And good morning!
That rack deserves better beer.

Walked by a tailgate before the soccer match last night, bunch of dudes behind a Range Rover, getting quite excited about a cooler full of...Bud Light and Michelob Ultra.
Ugh.
Good Afternoon
Went to a sushi place for lunch. Ordered the sashimi without knowing what it was. Turned out to be pretty solid but I prefer sushi.
Gregg and TTB are playing a venue that's five minutes from home this summer. Probably won't attend either one 🙁

TTB is playing in South Bend this summer, but it's the same night the Dead are in Noblesville.
It's further away than Chicago for me, but I can get there in less time, and would pay about 25% of what I usually do in tolls and parking to get there.

Missing TTB isn't to bad as I plan to see them down by Detroit later in the summer. Also have a Dead ticket I'm trying to sell
Rained last night,spent most of it drinking from Karen and Lynn's bottomless cooler...
Joe Marcinek was very good - pretty funky - great version of Shakedown Street.
Tribal Seeds were reggae - pretty good.
Bobby Lee Rodgers - always like BLR...
Back to the Hilton for the low country boil - my favorite meal of the year....
Devon - played great, crowd iinto it
North Mississippi Allstars with Anders Osbouirne - not what I expected - but good
Dumpstafunk - great light show - played a few of their own, and then did Earth Wind & Fire songs - Shining Star was great....then did War songs - Cisco Kid, The World is a Ghetto, Slipping into Darkness....
I left while they started doing Tower of Power songs.
Went back to the Hilton, didn't see Soullive......
No rain today, but it was cool - only 60 and a little breeze - felt very cold for some reason... 
Good Friday morning! 
A couple of things to soften the disappointment, though. The Blue Angels are here Sat, and I am going to Bristol on Sunday. I'm giving the invocation for Sang...
Hey Alan, I'm jealous of the going to Bristol thing, I'll get there one day.
I assume you made those plans after your Wanee plans fell through? Not sure how you would have pulled both off, doable I suppose, but tough.
Happy Fryday!

Actually, I have permanent tickets for Bristol, both races, and have had for well over 20 years. I have missed very few races there since 1981. So, I was going to skip Bristol and the air show for Wanee, because I missed Wanee last year. The air show dates have been announced for about a year, I guess.
We are starting the new road construction season and I get to play with life size Tonka toys.
So cool to see the folks enjoyin the festival, tilt back a cold one for me.
Another fun day at Wanee - too bad it is now over.........
Good Sunday morning!

You can try, just don't blow out your back.
Seeing Twiddle tonight, should be a fun way to end a good weekend
Made it all the way to Metropolis, IL. I'll catch the Superman statue in the morning......
The show made me feel old. Lots of minors in the crowd, still a lot of fun.

I've been there and seen that statue.

Did you see that Peyton Manning was there hanging around with Dale Jr pre-race (both shilling for Nationwide.) Peyton got a lot of coverage on TV, went up to "the booth" for a bit too.
Hey Alan, Bristol used to be a hot ticket, sold out, hard to get into - but the stands did not look filled at all, can you confirm? Maybe it has been like that for several years now.
And don't worry guys, I will go back to lurker mode in this thread shortly 😉

Stands weren't even half full, worst crowd I have ever seen at Bristol, it was pitiful.
Aw hell, Don, hang around a bit. Just don't post anything with even a hint of profundity... 😛
You gotta be funnier than Sang.

See, that is why I shouldn't post here, I had to go look profundity up. 😉
Oh and The Doobie Brothers at Bristol, did you see/hear them ?
