A few weeks ago I posted a rather bit of a rant on one of my other blogs about how the History Channel really had little to offer any more in the regards of actual history. You can read that over on Eligius and specifically at the post NOT-History Channel. Anyway, the point is I have rediscovered an old friend in PBS. I used to be a PBS junkie prior to the explosion of things like Discovery and History channels on cable/satellite networks. My recent reentry into the PBS world with the National Parks has had me making a much greater effort at what is available.
So this musical production back in the spring at Centre. Had finally decided way to much time had passed and to not write, but then I see it is coming to Lexington early next year.
Sometime last fall/winter (though I actually started writing this in the early morning hours of the actual night of the concert), I had tickets to see what I think is one of the greatest things to come out of the country music scene in a LONG time. Yeah Joey & Rory, of CMT’s Can You Duet fame as well as those really great Overstock.com commercials that were especially active during the Christmas holiday season so recently passed. I almost nearly stumbled into the tickets, having caught a glimpse of the flier a week or two prior, I purchased tickets immediately without even knowing who I would get to go with me for sure. If you have a chance anytime soon it is well worth the $15.00 I paid for tickets to see this awesome duo live and in person.
“The List” – an amazing new album by Rosanne Cash is based on a list of music her father gave her back in the 1970′s. It is pretty amazing with a small sample of the list is so comprehensive and at the end I got an idea for all of you!
I don’t do it often, but some random thoughts inspired by long hours working on budget stuff, a bit of bourbon, and some sad thoughts…
