Chris and I did get tickets to see the Police.
The concert is on July 20, so I have 4 months to learn the words to their songs so I can sing along and won't get bored... and so I don't look like a poseur only singing along to the songs off of Synchronicity.
I borrowed The Police's box set, Message in a Box, from Chris which has all of their songs. I put them all on my MP3 player and will rock that exclusively for the next couple of weeks/months.
I wanted to add a few things to the lists from my previous post, stuff that i forgot or didn't mention at the time:
"Bands I am not crazy about that I would like to see in concert" I need to add to that list:
Metallica
"Musicians/Bands I am glad I saw even though I am not crazy about them" I need to add to that list:
Ani DiFranco
And something intersting about all the great live music events i have seen at Hershey Park Stadium: Every concert I have ever been to there has been with family members. I have never seen a concert there with a friend. AND, the only concert I have been to with my dad was at Hershey Park Stadium... That was the Bob Dylan concert where it rained the whole show and Bob skipped a verse in Tangled Up In Blue. BUT he did sing Hard Rain Gonna Fall which was pretty neat.
Concerts I have seen with Mom:
Bob Dylan in Hershey
Rolling Stones in Philly
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band in New Jersey
Rolling Stones in Hershey
Concerts I have seen with Chris:

There will be a test on this at a later date.
Peace,
MPH

Hello? Rolling Stone in Philly y'all!
Yeah, what he said!!! You obviously don't remember we were at The Rolling Stones concert at the Vet..also known as your wedding present to us!!! OR our double-date with you & your Mommy!
what am I tinsel?
Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band in NJ.
Did you think that your family does not read your blog?!?
I still love you! xo W
I have to admit, as a BIG fan of recent Bruce Springsteen songs, I haven't piked up the Seeger Sessions yet. I really do like cover songs in moderation, but I wasn't sure that I could go a whole album without a Springsteen original. Maybe I'll give it a shot...
