Punk Rock Show conflict

So I recently bought tickets to see Rancid on July 26th at the fillmore. I found out a few days ago that there is another good show on that same day. The offspring and Dropkick Murphy's are playing a show with a few other bands. It's to bad they have to be on the same day. Rancid wins this contest - I like them more. I did also see Dropkick less than a month ago.

I am still thinking about seeing the cure on May 21st at Red rocks, but don't really want to go by myself. I may also drop down to Denver this Friday and catch NOFX. I'd like to see Pennywise on the 7th, but can't really take the time off from work, and hate not getting any sleep.

Denver trip

Here is a great shot of the City park golf course in Denver. We had a great time watching the cubs and golfing in Denver, and eating at some good places too. I tries Ruth's Chris steakhouse. It was a very good steak. probably in the top 5 on my all time list.

here is another good picture of downtown Denver from the golf course.

Access Denied, but cubs win

Last night the cubs won in an exciting game that went extra innings. This morning we tried to go golfing, but were denied. the course was closed for aeration. Access Denied.

a new post about a new post

So I'm writing a new post on my main blog, to tell you that I've made a new post on my driving without pants blog. Although I'm sure you check all three of my blogs regularly.

Rancid Concert and other music news ...

I just bought tickets to see Rancid on Saturday July 26th at the Filmore in Denver. This will be my 5th time seeing Rancid. They are supposed to have a new album out in June. Weezer also has an album due out in June.

In other music news I just ordered the new Pennywise album. They have a limited edition (2500) double LP (vinyl) that I ordered as well as the CD. Goldfinger has a new album that will be out on April 22, and Millencolin's album will be out on May 6th. I listened to a few tracks from Millencolin and I really liked it. I also listened to a track from Pennywise that was really good.

I still need to buy Accelerate from R.E.M. I really like the song "Mr. Richards" and several others. I though of buying the new counting crows, but I only like half the album and find several songs very annoying so I might not purchase it.

Speaking of music I had some ideas of why when people get older they stop discovering new music, and stick with their old stuff. I find it hard to keep up with all the bands I like now, and figure out when shows are, when new albums are coming, etc. It really takes some dedication of time to follow bands, not to mention time to listen to them. Perhaps by the time we are in our 30's our time is limited and our current music followings are large enough that it doesn't leave time to discover and follow new bands. That is how I feel. I enjoy when bands I like come out with new music, and I'm sure there are new bands I would like, but I have just enough time to keep up with my current selection...

April Snow

Well we were treated with 6-8 inches of snow last night. As I look out my office window (Yes I have an office, and a window. In fact I have a corner office with 4 windows) anyway It is still snowing.

I'll try to snap a picture and post it.
Here is the look out the window


This is another look at our snow

New Lock

Finally a security lock I can feel safe about.
