For my friends who know me personally, they know how much I appreciate all-things 1980s.
And TODAY is the day I can finally geek out in the glory of a 20yrs-younger me....
TODAY is the Roxette concert! (Click here if you don't understand why this is kinda a big deal for me.)
To top it off, one of my favourite bands, the iconic Canadian Glass Tiger will open the show in a setting that perfectly suits my appreciation for their music - I've seen them play the casino shows a few times when they blew through town, but the volume of both crowd and music, combined with the general atmosphere, just isn't LOUD enough for my needs. Alan Frew requires more space to rock it out and jump off barricades and into the crowds to body surf while the masses sing along to Animal Heart with reckless abandon.(Don't tell Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson, but I would pay their ticket price JUST to watch Glass Tiger perform their set.)
It's an 80s revival night, and the resurgence of the 80s makes me one VERY happy Cat.
If only I could summon the powers of Sonny & Cher, or bottle the magic of Groundhog Day itself, or find whatever it was that allowed Bill Murray to wake up to the same events every day...sigh...
Whilst waiting for my crimping iron to heat up, I see my hairbrush has once again turned into a microphone. Funny how that happens.... :)
SoundTracking: Animal Heart (Glass Tiger) - obvs ;)
