Reminder for anyone who is confused...

Let it be said, this is a blog. I'm not writing these for a grade. I'm putting my thoughts onto a page that others can choose to view or not to view. I'm not trying to write structurally sound essays or even news stories for a daily paper or tv broadcast. This is very relaxed enviroment. If I was writing for an English class then I would write extremely different. I'm writing as if we are having a conversation, that's all. There's not much effort in what I'm doing, just thinking and typing. If anyone has a problem with this then I encourage them not to read any more of my posts and I apologize for any incovience.

A Month at The Shed

Image
 The following was originally published in June 2018 on www.theshedtickets.com May 2018 We concluded Tribute Month and were ready to dive head first into our season with one of the biggest weekends of the year, David Allan Coe. Now DAC is one of the most polarizing figures in music due to his incredible catalog of songs clashing with his later x-rated albums. Whether done as complete satire, as raunchy biker humor, or just to see if he could release such things, they have haunted them ever since and he doesn't allow them to be sold commercially. But none of this stops the crowd, we had nearly a sellout ready to pack the place the week of his concert. But as plans are made, they will go awry... We got a call at 6:30pm the day before the show that DAC, nearly 80, was hospitalized due to vertigo and some other issues with his legs and back. He was not going to be able to play. I was already home that evening and immediately went to my office to try and make a game plan. First, call t...

Jimmy Buffett Makes Landfall in Nashville

The call came in before my California trip: Jimmy Buffett live in Nashville. Now I have tried before to get Buffett tickets, but I have never been successful. But this time was different. My aunt Jamie and I were finally going to see Jimmy Buffett… But this was no ordinary concert weekend, I drove into Nashville just as the biggest rainfall in over 30 years hit the city. I-40 was flooded; cars were underwater; businesses were closing; trailers were floating down highways; and I was in full parrot head gear making my way into downtown Nashville. Jamie commented that Broadway looked like Key West despite the weather. The parrot heads did not let the rain or floods keep them away. Pirates, land sharks, coconut bikinis, grass skirts, and straw hats were everywhere. And there wasn’t a soul who wasn’t wearing a tropical shirt. And the show, well the show was one of a kind. I watched the sound check online before heading to the show, so I had a vague idea of what to expect, but I could neve...

Nickelback Burns Nashville To The Ground

Well I started this year off with a bang, opening night of Nickelback's Dark Horse 2009 tour in Nashville, TN. Mike, Status, and I made the drive and joined my Aunt Jamie as well as my parents, brother, and his girlfriend to check out an awesome show. The bill was Nickelback featuring Seether and Saving Abel, and so after a nice dinner, we entered the show... Came into Saving Abel's set during what I believe was the second song. They sounded pretty good, wasn't overly impressed, but no complaints about them. Their short set was capped off by their huge hit “Addicted,” which sounded really good live. What can I say about Seether... They were loud. Heavy. Distorted. Metal. These guys need to be in a smaller venue. The lights would have worked better there and the style of music needs a general admission mosh pit to really work, not a huge arena that was nearly sold out. On a plus side, they were talented and are wonderful Metal musicians. Not my type of music but I can respec...
