On the Road Again in December

The next adventure is booked. I'm headed to Tacoma, Washington to see Roger Waters: The Wall Live with 6 friends, possibly more. We're going in the Karma van and my friend J.'s VW bug, old style. We will grab the ferry across from Victoria to Port Angeles, and head to the hotel from there. We catch a free shuttle from the hotel to the casino (which is closer to Tacoma Dome), and we'll probably have a few drinks there before heading to the show by taxi. It's going to be epic for sure. I've listened to Pink Floyd for decades, since before my daughter was born. I wanted one of the songs to be the theme song of our graduation but I had difficulty garnering support (We don't need no education). My other suggestion was the song "1984" by David Bowie, as we were graduating in 1984 as the first grade 12s in Newfoundland...again fell on deaf ears. I wanted to throw up at the sound of what they did settle on - Diana Ross's "Do you know where you're going to?" (no.) I boycotted my prom because of it and went camping with some friends and drank my face off. To hell with them...


In any event, I am thrilled to be able to see Roger Waters in person, even more so to be going with an awesome group of friends. Most of us have traveled together earlier this year to shows, so have it down to a science, for the most part. I haven't been to many indoor concerts so this will be interesting. I rather like listening to music outside, as I find it almost too loud inside, as the sound echoes off the walls. I hear it's a great venue, so will see for ourselves.
