I found out today the BNL are coming to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame city this summer. I’m excited because I missed them the last time they arrived in town. They played at CSU and there was some sort of conflict so I couldn’t go. I’m going this time, hell or highwater.
I have some catching up to do because I don’t have their last two CD’s. Bad fan, I know. I’ll download them from their site on the ‘net. Don’t worry, I’ll make up. I also have to learn the new tunes since they’ll be playing a lot of them.
If you haven’t been to a BNL concert, it’s an event. I’ve seen them at least four times. Once in Canton with a bunch of pot smokers in the crowd, once at the Taste of Cleveland (the night Princess Diana died), twice at the Gund Arena (that’s what it was called back then) All good times. I still like their old stuff from “Gordon” the best. “Hello City”, “Brian Wilson” and “If I Had $1,000,000”. I do like the “Sound Of Your Voice” from “Barenaked Ladies Are Me”. I have yet to hear the rest of the stuff. Okay, I know, bad fan! I’m going to the concert so…
After everything this week (btw, thanks for the condolences), last night I practically begged Tim to take me to see BNL. I think we’ll be there too! We should do drinks beforehand. Oh, and “Enid” is my fave from “Gordon.”
