The real Fourth of July


The Fourth came and went. Kiki went to Gma and Gpas house to hang out with Jayden to do parades and more fireworks (not lakeworks firefronts though).

Tracy, JT, Travis and I went to Summerfest for the Stone Temple Pilots show.

The JournalSentinal pretty much hit the show on the head.

It started kind of slow, with Weiland looking like Blondie (Eastwood) from the 1966 classic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Lots of unintelligible mumbling between songs that probably did not make much sense even if we could hear it. With no new album it was all the hits. The encore was enjoyable, two navy service men brought on stage an got to rock (and sing) with them to 'dead and bloated', very cool.
A funny side note, we sat amongst people smoking cigs. Tracy, always vocal on her displeasure, said she would rather get high (from the girl who has never). Well 3 songs into the set and she got her wish, The row directly in front and behind began tokin'. I told her they should be passing that your way pretty soon. Careful what you wish for. It made for good laughs, or was the laughs from second hand smoke...
We also watched The Invaders and Big D and the Kids Table. SKA night at the Harley stage. Nice.
Tracy wanted me to talk about the drama I added by having to stop at Bayshore for a new pair of shades, since I cannot locate my old non-prescription ones. New contacts require good eye protection. Do they not? Whiner? yea, this time.
