Hey guys! I really enjoyed reading Paula's comments. They expressed my feelings really well re: going to see your favorite band multiple times. The irony of this discussion (for me) is that one of my best friends told Kevin (my better half for those who have not met us) just yesterday that we were spending too much $$ going to concerts (behind my back I might add). She knows better than to tell me this ;-) It's so great to have a group of people who "get" why this is so worth it. So, in essence, this is a one-time opportunity for us. Do what you budget allows & follow your heart. I still cannot believe that I've even seen my favorite band once, let alone 3 times. When this is all done, we'll be left with beautiful memories. My thoughts for now & back to lurking, Anne Stephens Halifax, Nova Scotia (site of Police concert on the Commons 2008??) P.S. There is definitely hope for the next generation coming up. I was buying The Specials Greatest Hits last night. The clerk was just a baby (17ish) and was really impressed with my choice of purchase. I was like, "Oh yeah, one of our friends saw them live in the "80s at the Police picnic in TO" (lucky bugger that Jock Murray). The kids are allright ;-)
