Toronto or Bust

We are headed back to Toronto for Valentine's Day. Larry got second row seats for the Jim Cuddy Band concert at Massey Hall. He sat at the computer, hand poised on the mouse watching the clock. He was able to connect 17 seconds after the tickets went on sale.

We don't have a hotel yet but I hope it is closer to the venue that the place we stayed for New Years!! That was quite the trek on a night when cabs were not stopping. Here is the famous Horseshoe Tavern. I was a bit surprised when we arrived. Doesn't look like a concert venue but the place has tons of history with pic on the walls to prove it!!

The Sadies,(below) the group we saw on New Years, are playing at the Bug Jar in Rochester on Feb. 21st. We thought it would be fun to get a bunch of people together to go. Not many people from the states know them but they are amazing if you like "rockabilly". So if you would like to join us.. Sue-Dr. Martin- Chris- Jim- and anyone else....

We met Candace and Johnny waiting in line. We ended up sitting together and had a great time. Candace in all her innocence said something like "you look like you are 29". Ok- I admit it. I could have kissed her but... considering it was New Year's Eve- everyone probably looked like they were 29. It was an amazing concert- 67 songs. It was also about 105 degrees inside and we were close to the stage so the lights made it hotter.

If two oldies and two youngsters can have a great time together - it must have been a great show!!

Larry is now on a mission to find CD's from The Goodbrothers. They are an older group- relatives of the Sadies, dad and uncles I think. The man is in the wrong business!!

Coming soon- Loads of Thank You cards in one color scheme.
