Moondance: Day 2

Better show yet! Jesse and I got there around 3 o' clock, and walked around, got some barely pop. Sat on the hill, mingled with people and had a few beers (I had more than a few). Loverboy took the stage..they are alright. I dig "Turn Me Loose (My way??) and "Working For the Weekend."

After they took off stage, Grand Funk Railroad came on. Great band! I liked their version "Locomotion". Great ditty. Exploded with "American Band" For their encore. Hella Sweet! I held a woman up on my shoulders (shoulders are sore as hell now), and this woman wanted her neice to get to know me, but her neice was too embarassed. She was 21. this woman was forty. So she was macking on me and stuff. Jesse stood next to me, with a shit grin. He told me he thinks it is funny that I attract women that are old enough to be my mother! Yea, oh well. I gave that woman a hug, and told her to have a great day.

Cheap "fucking" Trick was up next! Love these guys and they should have had the honor to close the show! Rick Neilson busted out the five neck guitar and rocked out with that. "surrender" is my absolute favorite from these guys. Also dig the 70's show theme. "Want you to Want Me" is a classic. I didn't know the bassist is from Minnesota. Killer band...so going to get VIP pass next year to hang out with my favorite bands. Hopefully they'll come back in the near future.

Finally, REO took the stage. Love their tunes. They come from champagne illonois where my best friend lives at. Sadly, I have not really listened to REO in the past, so once again i felt like an idiot up there with some die hard fans. I got to know these people that were hardcore fans. Seemed pretty nice, had me block the stampede from the back that wanted to go all the way up front to see the band. Good stuff.

Came home, went to bed and brought in my car early this morning to get my brake cylinders fixed up. No problems with that. Now I am studying off and on for a test. BSU just picks the right week to have exams...shitty! Moondance comes first I believe, cuz it happens once a year. Grand Funk Railroad said it best:

We're an American band
We're an American band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band

Peace Out
