Recently in Won on the Radio Category

The Joe Cocker show last night was AWESOME. He is a legend (61 year old) and he still kicks ass.

He sang all his "oldies" like:

With a Little Help from My Friends
When the Night Comes
Up Where We Belong
Feeling Alright
You Can Leave Your Hat On
You Are So Beautiful

One of the best shows I have been to in along time. The Sax player was amazing and quite easy on the eyes. And within touching distance to boot. Altho, hubby wouldn't let me cop a feel. (I suppose the bouncer dude who was sitting right next to hubby, wouldn't have let me either)

They positioned Joe on stage, just out of spitting distance from the first row but we could see the whites of his eyes. Well, not the whites of his eyes but the reds of his eyes. :)

All in all a good evening.

Again my mother-in-law won tickets on the radio. She has won so much stuff that way, she has had to fill out a 1099 form for the Internal Revenue. I kid you not.

Lucky for me Father-in-law doesn't like to do concerts or plays or things that she usually wins. So alot of the time, I get to go with her.

So where did we go today, you ask?

I have chosen to list this entry is under the "MUSIC" category. Why you might ask?

Quite the little JAZZ musician.

I just love Harry Connick's voice. And if there were anything BAD about the concert last night it would be that we didn't hear enough of it. The show was very Jazzy (type music) and featured the band ALOT. I am not complaining, mind you, but I paid for Harry to sing to me and not so much for the band. It is a good thing Hubby didn't go. He really doesn't like Jazz that much. Being a musician himself (plays guitar ... blues, rock, acoustical) he doesn't like what he calls the nonsensical rhythm of jazz.
Plus he hates it when I drool in public.

SPECIAL INFO!
We sat right behind Al McCoy and his wife.

There was also a birthday party going on for Don of Don and Charlies' Ribs, and I have never NEVER seen such RUDE people. There were about 60 in the group and they were Up and Down throughout the concert. This is NOT durring a break but while the show was going on. Don and Charlie's MUST have been buying the booze. Some guy even came back with a bucket of popcorn. DUDE you aren't at a movie here!

Why is it that I can sit around and do nothing for weeks on end and then one day have 20 things that need to be done RIGHT NOW! Could it be because I put everything off till the last minute. DUH!

Tonight, my mother-in-law and I are going to see Harry Connick Jr..

Since she works on my side of town and lives on the other side, she is going to spend the night here. That way she doesn't have to drive 40 miles to go home after the show tonight.

This means that I have to clean my "spare room" so my mother-in-law has someplace to sleep. Okay, to some of you that doesn't seem like much. But the "spare room" tends to be the "junk room". Everything that my Hubby doesn't know where it belongs, goes into the "spare room". And Hubby doesn't know where ANYTHING belongs. So I have a couple hours of work there.

Okay so that brings me to Harry! He could do me! But I think he would have to sing to me the whole time.

Which brings me to a question! Which famous person would you want to "take advantage" of YOU?

My Mother-in-law and I went to see Josh Groban in concert last night.

My Mother-in-law won tickets on one of the local radio staions here the end of last year. The original concert was Feb 4th but was cancelled due to Josh being sick. It was rescheduled for last night.

Fourth row - center....

All I can say is WOW!.

For those of you who might not know who Josh Groban is check out his site. At the top of the page there is a mini player so you can listen to some of his music. This kid is only 22 and is a very gifted baritone with a boy-next-door appeal.

His band of musicians was a mix of orchestra and rock band. They were also amazing.

I would have to say that my favorite song so far is "To Where You Are" check out the video.

I am happy!
