I just found out yesterday that My Chemical Romance is coming to Saskatoon for a show on December 6!! So I bought tickets online right after I saw the ad on MuchMusic without even knowing if I could get the time off from work or not. I swore to myself that if they ever came anywhere near here that I would be there - work or no work! I'm soooooooooo excited!!!! Hubby is coming with me though and that might just cramp my style, but what can you do?54 days and counting...
In November, the musical "Chicago" is coming here for 2 nights only. We've never seen that one except for the movie version, so the hubby and I are looking forward to it. There was an ad for it in the newspaper yesterday proclaming that the star of the show is none other than...Tom Wopat!hee hee!I didn't know Luke Duke could sing...
Speaking of music, I went out with a friend of mine last night to a nightclub here in town where the songs that they played were all edited. I found that rather weird. Were they afraid of offending someone with the profanity that is in most hip-hop? Last time that I checked, anyone in a nightclub was 19 or older. I mean, we're all adults here...what's the problem? The other clubs that I've been to have all played the explicit versions and from what I could tell, everyone was cool with that. There was one song where the word "ho" was cut out. That's a bit extreme, don't you think? Anyway, aside from the PG music, I had a good time. At around 11:30, most of the Riders showed up (they had a home game earlier in the evening which they lost - boo!) and there are some might fine looking young men on that team. I say young because I think I'm older than the oldest player on the team. My friend and I didn't mind the attention at all! It was a definite self-esteem booster. After being married for 11 years, one tends to forget that they can actually be attractive to the opposite sex. I can honsetly say that it's been a long loooooong time since I have been told that I was beautiful (friends don't count - sorry Taylorg - but I love it anyway!) no matter how gussied up I get. When the one you love hardly ever tells you, you tend to forget. Alright, enough with the self-pity! We had a good time and, Ash, you really missed out!!
Firstly, take that "anonymous" comment leaver! For your information, I do not listen to the radio except at work where I have no choice. I don't think that all Top 40 songs blow, just certain ones, which is why I prefer to listen to cd's in my car where I can control what I listen to. If you are such a music expert, why don't you start your own blog where I can comment on how narrow minded you are! Some people's children....
