The Right to be Ridiculous is One that I Hold Dear

Well, this past week I went to see U2 in concert. It was truly epic. The title of my blog is one of my favorite lines from Crazy Tonight, off their new CD No Line on The Horizon.

Besides playing incredible music and putting on a great show for 2 hours Bono did several other cool things, like recognize and sing for Aung San Suu Kyi, the Burmese President who has been under house arrest since her election in 1990. He also made a plug for One. I have a theory that one big reason he is still famous is becuase he does something with his fame. He believes he can make a difference and is trying to do so to positively impact our world. That is something I really respect and why I will continue to support U2 by paying for expensive concert tickets and cds.

Bluegrass in Benson

Last Friday I went to a bluegrass festival in Benson, AZ to watch some of my friends play. It was awesome.

We were the youngest people there by 20 years and were stared at as we walked in. I think the old people there thought we were out to cause trouble or something. There were so many interesting people there! I just wanted to walk around and take pictures of people, but I also didn't want to be that creepy, so I decided not to.

Here are some pictures that I did take:

This group of gentlemen had just finished on a 30 city tour of Holland. huh
The group we went with :)

New Music, part 2

A couple weeks ago I went to the Eric Hutchinson concert at The Rock, in Tucson. We met him and took a picture (as you can see, obviously)

Let me just say, he puts on a great concert! His rendition of R Kelly's Ignition and My Girl may be one of my new favorites.
