I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

I'm eating two of everything

This sums up my two weeks down there... impressive feat if you're really only there one day.

It's getting to crunch time for me on this. I haven't booked anything yet. This is the latest I've ever gone. But with 4 weddings between March and August, and having to travel for three of them, and being in two of them, this just wasn't looking possible for me this year. But I never decided one way or the other. Looking at flights, they're pricey but doable. And the airbnb I stayed at last year is still available. And quite reasonable actually. UGH! I'm torn right now. It doesn't make sense financially, or in terms of time away from the office, with everything else I have going on, and if it was any other year, I probably would've skipped, but being the 50th anniversary, is making this decision a lot harder.

The food list there really pushed me to the edge. Way to go.

Dude - you never regret the Jazzfests you hit - only those you miss.

He must've had SOME sort of back up plan, right? I mean, to have nothing scheduled for the entire day after 4, except the Stones?!?! He had to have some thing though tout that if they cancelled, or something happened to one of them health wise, or whatever, he had to have thought of something that could be done. Otherwise, that was one helluva gamble, and he just lost.

I think when you're booking a band that big and that old and that Keef Richards-y, your backup plan is just a huge insurance policy. I'm quite certain some insurance company is taking the biggest hit on this one. Quint will be fine.

Oh, I don't even mean financially. I mean, like musically. WTF is his back up plan?!?!

You're entitled to your opinion but I'm going to laugh at it.
