    Losing an Angel

    Dolly Parton has died. It was a complete surprise. She had cancelled events and kept us up to date but there was no reason to believe she wouldn’t come back singing, “Here we come Again.” I am aware of her legacy, her talent, and her philanthropy. It is so nice to watch the specials they’ve…

    “Living in the Material World”  tattoo

    I have decided to make an appointment for my next tattoo. I always remember right before summer and that’s not a good time to get it. The album “Living in the Material World” meant so much to me I feel it’s important to honor that. My current tattoo’s are of Foxgloves, (my favorite) and a…

  • Alice Cooper Tickets

    I received an email the other day that Alice Cooper is coming to Richmond! He will be at the Altria Theater on October 30!! I am very excited because for over 25 years I have wanted to see his Halloween show. The show is actually called “Alice’s Attic,” so I’m not sure it’s his Halloween…

  • Man on the Run

    Finally. I can’t believe it had taken me so long to watch this Paul McCartney documentary. As with everything, I needed to watch at what I thought was the “right time.” I couldn’t have any interruptions, had to be in the evening and wanted Pete to watch. The last one I don’t know why; maybe…

  • Heart in Concert

    Heart in Concert

    Last night we went to see Heart. They are my favorite rock’n roll female group. Ann Wilson has the most amazing voice and her sister Nancy is right up there with the best rock’n roll guitar players. I had bought handicapped seats at the Altria Theater. It’s a beautiful old theater and the handicapped seats…

    Zeppelin/Harrison Factoid

    Today I got in the car to finish my Christmas shopping. I had to go to Target to return my dream boots and on to Marshall’s, right next door for my last ditch effort for presents. Anyway I digress, I was putting my seatbelt on and the DJ started telling a story about the Led…

  • December 8

    Forty five years ago John Lennon was murdered in front of his apartment in the Dakota. I will always remember everything about that day. It saddens me that there is no mention or remembrance of this devastating tragedy. The New York radio station 104.3, that I listen to played John’ music during the “12:00 Beatle…

  • Special Day

    It’s hard to believe that John Lennon would have been 85 years old today. I often wonder how he would have felt about our government today. More important to me is how his music would have continued to relate to our feelings of love, being idealistic, dreaming of a better world, and standing up for…

  • Happy Birthday to the best singer in Rock’n Roll!

    Happy 77th Birthday to Robert Plant! I wanted to see him in November at the Paramount Theatre in Charlottesville, VA. HE’s performing with Saving Grace as his backup band. I’ve heard great reviews. I went online and the cheapest ticket is $1395/ for one. I said I wasn’t going to be cheap but this price…

  • AGT

    I was going to post wishing Robert Plant a Happy Birthday. I put on America’s Got Talent and opening the show is DEF LEPPARD! Wow, what a surprise. I love them. I always wanted to see them in concert but never did. They are starting a residency at Caesar’s Palace in Vegas in February 2026.…
