Man I DO love this time of year.As stated by me previously on Headwize
"I can listen to ANY style of music live , but only purchase certain types.
even some old geezer playin' the spoons sounds good live "
So where am I going with this ????
There is an event that I have been going to for about 10 years now
http://www.roxburyct.com/pickinfiddlin/main.htm
A simple low tech gatthering of musicians from 6 to 60 ,some awsome ,some wth almost no skills (but with enough balls to get on stage) but all fun to listen to.
The late night jam session is my favorite part
This is music that I NEVER listen to ,but evey year I look forward to this and always come away satisfied.This **** ROCKS
Add to that --COOLERS ALOWED !!!
And mine will have a 30 pack of buds ,some soda for the kiddies,and enough chow for a small army
Very cool
Next week the Doobie Brothers ,also very close (20 minute burn from my house) , small outside venue,and again COOLERS ALLOWED !!!!

In my youth I did a concert a week , mostly large arenas and stadiums , always ripped (can't remember much about some killer concerts)
But as I get older I like a more intimate setting and smaller crowds , not to mention being closer to the performance
In 4 weeks -The Beach Boys
Labor Day-the YES Symphonic tour-YES with a forty piece symphoniy orchestra
The point of this ramble ?
Yeah,headphones are great but man ,it don't get better than live
and for me live means a folding chair ,good friends and a cold bud
cheers
